1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis.
2 Getting Started We recommend that you: Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment Review the contents of this user manual i 2.1 Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
2.3 Recycling Kramer Products The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by requiring it to be collected and recycled. To comply with the WEEE Directive, Kramer Electronics has made arrangements with the European Advanced Recycling Network (EARN) and will cover any costs of treatment, recycling and recovery of waste Kramer Electronics branded equipment on arrival at the EARN facility.
3 Overview The PT-571HDCP is a DGKat™ twisted pair transmitter for DVI signals. The PT-571HDCP converts a DVI signal to a single twisted pair signal and the PT-572HDCP+ converts the twisted pair signal back to a DVI signal. The DVI Line Transmitter/Receiver system features: Maximum data rate/bandwidth up to 4.95Gbps (1.
3.1 Using Twisted Pair Cable Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products; the Kramer: BC-DGKat524 (CAT 5 24 AWG), the Kramer: BC-DGKat623 (CAT 6 23 AWG cable), and the Kramer: BC-DGKat7a23 (CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built cables significantly outperform regular CAT 5/CAT 6/CAT 7a cables. 3.
4 Defining the PT-571HDCP DVI Line Transmitter The Kramer Pico TOOLS PT-571HDCP DVI Line Transmitter receives a DVI signal, encodes it, and transmits it over a CAT 5 cable to the PT-572HDCP+.
5 Defining the PT-572HDCP+ DVI Line Receiver The Kramer Pico TOOLS PT-572HDCP+ DVI Line Receiver receives an encoded signal over a CAT 5 cable transmitted from the PT-571HDCP, decodes it, and converts it to a DVI output.
6 Connecting the Transmitter Receiver Pair ! Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your Transmitter and Receiver pair. After connecting your Transmitter and Receiver pair, connect the power and then switch on the power to each device. You can use the PT-571HDCP DVI Line Transmitter with the PT-572HDCP+ DVI Line Receiver to configure a DVI transmitter/receiver system. To connect the PT-571HDCP to the PT-572HDCP+, as illustrated in the example in Figure 3, do the following: 1.
