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 video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professionals 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 • Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables i 2.1 Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
2.2 Safety Instructions ! 2.3 Caution: There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit Warning: Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with the unit Warning: Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall before installing 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.
3 Overview This user manual describes the following devices: • TP-121EDID XGA/Audio Line Transmitter (see Section 4) • TP-123EDID XGA/Audio/Data Line Transmitter (see Section 5) • TP-125EDID XGA/Audio/Data Line Transmitter (see Section 6) • PT-110EDID XGA Line Transmitter (see Section 7) This section also describes: • Using shielded twisted pair (STP)/unshielded twisted pair (UTP), see Section 3.1 • 3.1 The power connect feature, see Section 3.
3.2 About the Power Connect™ Feature The Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power. This feature is available when using STP cable and the distance does not exceed 50m (164ft) on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances, heavy-gauge cable should be used (TP cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding power at these distances).
4 Your TP-121EDID This section describes the TP-121EDID XGA/Audio Line Receiver. 4.1 Overview The TP-121EDID is a high-performance XGA/stereo audio line transmitter. It inputs an XGA signal (up to WUXGA, 1080p) and an unbalanced stereo audio signal and transmits them over CAT 5 cable to a receiver (for example, the Kramer TP-122N). It converts the unbalanced stereo audio signal to a digital audio (S/PDIF) stream before transmitting, to preserve the quality of the audio signal.

8 Wiring the TP LINE IN/LINE OUT RJ-45 Connectors This section defines the TP pinout, using a straight pin-to-pin cable with RJ-45 connectors. i Note, that the cable Ground shielding must be connected / soldered to the connector shield.
9 Acquiring the EDID The transmitter can acquire the EDID information from the connected display or it can acquire the default EDID. To acquire the display EDID, do the following: 1. Using a short cable, connect the XGA INPUT 15-pin HD connector of the transmitter to the XGA input connector of the display. i Pins 12 and 15 of the VGA connector carry the EDID signal. The cable used for capturing the EDID must pass all 15 pins. 2. Connect the display power. 3.
