MTP AV Series • Introduction 2
TP Cable Advantages
Twisted pair (TP) cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial
cable. These TP products make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome. Termination of
the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.

Transmission Distance
Extron suggests a minimum transmission distance of at least 50 feet. The maximum
transmission distance when using Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable,
terminated with CAT 5 rated connectors, is 1000 feet.
NOTES:
• It is possible to exceed the recommended distance, however, image quality may be
reduced.
• The transmitters and receivers are designed for and perform best with Extron
Enhanced Skew-Free AV cable. CAT 5 cables are acceptable, but are less
preferable. We also recommend the use of preterminated and tested cables when
possible. Cables terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that they
comply with Category 5 specifications.
• The video portion of any S-video output by the transmitter is compatible with any
S-video receiver in the MTP family described in this guide if the transmitter and
receiver jumper configuration are compatible.
• The video portion of any composite video output by the transmitter is compatible
with any composite video receiver in the MTP family described in this guide if the
transmitter and receiver jumper configuration are compatible.
• The audio output of any transmitter (captive screw or RCA) is compatible with
any audio receiver in the MTP family described in this guide if the transmitter and
receiver jumper configuration are compatible.
