Quick Start Guide — TP T 15HD 45 / A 45 CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. These units must be installed in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Step 1 Power off all devices and disconnect them from the power source. Step 2 Connect the UTP cable from the receiver to the 8-pin connector on the TP T 15HD 45. To wire the connector, see Rear Panel Connectors in chapter 2 for the pinout table.
Quick Start Guide — TP T 15HD/A 45, cont’d Table of Contents Step 5 Chapter 1 • Introduction .......................................................... 1-1 If the TP T A 45 is being installed, connect the TP T A 45 to the TP T 15HD 45. See Rear Panel Connectors in chapter 2. The TP T 15HD 45 may be used as a stand-alone video module only without the TP T A 45. The TP T A 45 derives its power from the TP T 15HD 45.

Introduction, cont’d Introduction The Extron TP T 15HD 45 twisted pair transmitter and the matching TP T A 45 audio input module provide a system for sending RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, component, composite, or S-video and stereo audio signals over Extron Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable or CAT 5/5e/6 UTP cable to a compatible TP or VTR receiver. An external 12 VDC power supply provides power to both the TP T 15HD 45 and the TP T A 45. The TP T A 45 inputs unbalanced audio through a 3.

Installation, cont’d 2 Connect the TP T 15HD 45 and its receiver to either end of the UTP cable. See Cable testing and Skew delay problems in this chapter. For best results, use Extron Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable available in bulk or in various preterminated lengths. If necessary, regular CAT 5, CAT 5e, and CAT 6 cable may be used. 3 Connect the external power supply to the TP T 15HD 45 and TP T A 45 (if installed). See Rear Panel Connectors in this chapter.
Installation, cont’d Skew delay problems CAT 5 TP cable can lead to registration errors between the red, green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern with a critical eye to determine if either the red, green, or blue video image leads (appears to the left of) the other two video images. These images can be minimized or eliminated by one of the following methods: • Switch to Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable.
