Supported Cables

The DTP2 T 204 is compatible with shielded twisted pair (STP) and unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cable.
However, Extron strongly recommends that you use STP cable to achieve best performance.

Cable Recommendations

Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances up to 330 feet (100
meters) and reduce transmission errors.
• Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and DTP 24 connectors for the best performance:
•
XTP DTP 24/1000 Non-Plenum 1000' (305 m) spool
• XTP DTP 24P/1000 Plenum 1000' (305 m) spool
•
XTP DTP 24 Plug
• If not using XTP DTP 24 cable, at a minimum, Extron recommends 24 AWG, solid conductor, STP cable with
a bandwidth of at least 400 MHz.
• Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA-T568B standard.
•
Use no more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points, punch down connectors,
couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points are required, use CAT 6 or 6a shielded couplers
and punch-down connectors.
NOTES:
When using STP cable in bundles or conduits, consider the following:
•
Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.
• Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are straightened, aligned, and secured in
tight bundles.
•
Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or Velcro®.
•
Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.

Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable
or STP201 cable to link the XTP products or with DTP transmitters or
receivers. The DTP2 T 201 D does not work properly with these
cables.
N'utilisez pas le câble audiovisuel Skew-Free UTP version améliorée
UTP23SF-4 Extron ou le câble STP201 pour relier les produits XTP à
des émetteurs ou récepteurs DTP. Le DTP2 T 201 D ne fonctionne
pas correctement avec ces câbles.
