3 Overview

The TP-575 is a twisted pair line driver and DA for HDMI. The TP-575

receives an HDMI signal from a transmitter (for example, the Kramer PT-571)

via the LINE IN RJ-45 connector. It decodes this input signal to the local output

and simultaneously transmits it to a TP receiver (for example, the PT-572+)

which converts it back to an HDMI signal

Using the TP-575, you can pass via the twisted pair cable:

• EDID (Extended Display Information Data) and HDCP signals

• HPD (Hot Plug Detect) signals from the display device to the source

The TP-575 features:

• Up to 1.65Gbps bandwidth per graphic channel

• HDTV compatibility

• A system range

Use only shielded cables with the TP-575 in which the cable Ground shielding

must be connected / soldered to the shield of both RJ-45 connectors

of up to 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to 30m (98ft) at

1080p on shielded BC-DGKat524 cable; 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to

70m (230ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat623 cable; 100m (330ft) at

1080i or up to 90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat7a23 cable.

• HDMI Support – HDMI (V.1.4 with Deep Color, x.v.Color™, HDMI

Uncompressed Audio Channels, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD)

• Output signal reclocking, letting you daisy chain up to six receivers

• 3D Pass-Through

• The Power Connect System™ – A single connection to the TP-575

powers the transmitter, receiver and line driver units

• The ability to read and store, in non-volatile memory, the default

EDID, or the EDID

• LEDs that indicate the selected input as well as the active output LED

indication

block from either or both of the output display

devices, so it can then provide the EDID information to the HDMI

sources even if the display device is not connected

1 The Kramer PT-571 and PT-572+ user manual is available on our Web site at http://www.kramerelectronics.com

2 Suitable for resolutions up to UXGA at 60Hz, and for all HD resolutions

3 Note that the transmission range depends on the signal resolution, graphics card and display used. The distance using non-

Kramer CAT 5, CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables may not reach these ranges

4 EDID is Extended Display Identification Data (see section

3.2 for a more detailed definition)
