Introduction 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. In recent years, we have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better! Our 1,000-plus different models now appear in 11 groups1 that are clearly defined by function.
Overview 3 Overview The TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver receives a twisted pair CAT 5 signal, decodes it and simultaneously distributes it to the YUV and S/PDIF outputs, as well as relaying the input to the next receiver (transceiver operation). In particular, the TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver features: A YUV1 output on 3 RCA connectors A digital audio output (S/PDIF) on an RCA connector A CAT 5 input and output on RJ-45 connectors Individual level and EQ.
Your TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver 3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) / Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) We recommend that you use shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. There are different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our STP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-SXTP, is intended for transmitting VGA signals. Our non-skew-free cable, Kramer BC-STP, is intended for digital signals.
