Overview

The TP-575 is a twisted pair line driver and DA for HDMI. The TP-575
receives an HDMI signal from a transmitter (for example, the Kramer PT-571)
via the LINE IN RJ-45 connector. It decodes this input signal to the local output
and simultaneously transmits it to a TP receiver (for example, the PT-572+)
which converts it back to an HDMI signal
Using the TP-575, you can pass via the twisted pair cable:
• EDID (Extended Display Information Data) and HDCP signals
• HPD (Hot Plug Detect) signals from the display device to the source
The TP-575 features:
• Up to 1.65Gbps bandwidth per graphic channel
• HDTV compatibility
• A system range
1080p on shielded BC-DGKat524 cable; 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to
70m (230ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat623 cable; 100m (330ft) at
1080i or up to 90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat7a23 cable.
Use only shielded cables with the TP-575 in which the cable Ground shielding
must be connected / soldered to the shield of both RJ-45 connectors
• HDMI Support – HDMI (V.1.4 with Deep Color, x.v.Color™, HDMI
Uncompressed Audio Channels, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD)
• Output signal reclocking, letting you daisy chain up to six receivers
• 3D Pass-Through
• The Power Connect System™ – A single connection to the TP-575
powers the transmitter, receiver and line driver units
• The ability to read and store, in non-volatile memory, the default
EDID, or the EDID
devices, so it can then provide the EDID information to the HDMI
sources even if the display device is not connected
• LEDs that indicate the selected input as well as the active output LED
indication
