Tp Cable Advantages; Control Communications; Features - Extron electronics DTP HDMI 230 User Manual

The DTP HDMI 230 Tx/Rx units are housed in quarter rack width metal enclosures. They
can be set on a tabletop or mounted in a rack, under or through furniture. The receiver can
also be mounted on a projector bracket.
The transmitter is shipped with a single external desktop 12 VDC power supply that
accepts 100 to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz input. A single power supply connected to either the
transmitter or the receiver can power both units through the TP cable that carries HDMI video.

TP Cable Advantages

Twisted pair cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial
or HDMI cable. These transmitter and receiver twisted pair (TP) products make cable runs
simpler and less cumbersome. Termination of the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple,
quick, and economical.
NOTE: Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or

Control Communications
