Overview 3 Overview This section describes: A summary of the TP-41 / TP-42, see section 3.1 Using shielded twisted pair (STP) / unshielded twisted pair (UTP), see section 3.2 Recommendations for achieving the best performance, see section 3.3 3.1 About the TP-41 / TP-42 Using the TP-41 Component – S/PDIF Line Transmitter with the TP-42 Component – S/PDIF Line Receiver constitutes a Component – S/PDIF Line transmitter / receiver system.
Your Component – S/PDIF Line Transmitter and Line Receiver distances, of 50m or so, shielded twisted pair (STP) cable is preferred because it provides protection from interference (degradation is not apparent). For long range applications, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is preferred. However, the unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable should be installed far away from electric cables, motors and so on, which are prone to create electrical interference.
