The RS-232 portion of the TP link:

• Can be bidirectional in each system that consists of just

one receiver (not a daisy chain); that is, the receiver can

receive commands from the transmitter and pass RS-232

responses back to the transmitter.

By default, the RS-232 portion of the TP link is

unidirectional only, from the transmitter to the

receiver. If there is only one receiver in the system, you

can conﬁgure that receiver for bidirectional RS-232

communications. Refer to the MTP 15HD RS Series

manual.

• Supports software ﬂow control (XON, XOFF).

Hardware ﬂow control is not supported.

• Supports full duplex and half duplex operation.

• Supports any baud rate (up to 38,400), data bits, parity,

stop bits, and data format without conﬁguration.

Higher rates are possible, but performance will vary as a

function of baud rate and TP cable length.

Up to eight receivers can be connected in series to a single

transmitter, provided that the total distance from the

transmitter’s TP output to the last receiver in the chain does not

exceed the recommended distance for the resolution being used.

Each individual transmitter provides pre-peaking, which

boosts the signal before it is transmitted. The receiver

does not provide any pre-peaking control. The total

recommended distance (see page 1-4) for an entire daisy

chain is the same as for a single transmitter and receiver.

The transmitter’s Pre-Peak switch has the same affect on

the recommended transmission distance for a daisy chain

as for a single transmitter and receiver.

The SEQ version of the receiver also corrects the skew delay

(misconvergence) commonly encountered when using CAT

5, 5e, or 6 TP cables for RGB video and component video

transmission.

An SEQ receiver should not be necessary when Extron

Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable is used.

All four transmitters in the MTP 4T 15HD RS are powered by a

single internal 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 20 watts power

supply that provides worldwide power compatibility.

Do not connect this device to a computer data or

telecommunications network.

About the MTP 4T 15HD RS

The Extron MTP 4T 15HD RS consists of four MTP T 15HD RS

transmitters in a single enclosure. This set of transmitters

and the Extron MTP RL 15HD RS and MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ

receivers provide a means to distribute VGA or other high

resolution video and RS-232 serial communications across long

distances.

The MTPs transmit and receive over Extron’s Enhanced Skew-

Free A/V UTP cable or over CAT 5, 5e, or 6 shielded twisted

pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded

twisted pair (FTP) cable.

The MTP 4T 15HD RS can support four transmitter/receiver

systems. Each system requires a transmitter and at least one

connected compatible MTP receiver. Additional receivers can be

daisy chained.

In this manual the term "transmitter assembly" refers to

the MTP 4T 15HD RS.

Each of the MTP transmitters in the assembly inputs a set

of high resolution or low resolution video signals (RGB,

component video, S-video, or composite video) on a 15-pin HD

connector. Each transmitter also passes RS-232 serial data or

control signals on 3.5 mm 3-pin captive screw connectors. The

transmitters convert the video and RS-232 signals to proprietary

signals and each outputs its set of signals to the compatible

MTP receivers on an RJ-45 connector. The transmitters also

make each video input available for local use on 15-pin HD

connectors.

Each receiver inputs the transmitted proprietary signal on an

RJ-45 connector, converts the signal back into its high resolution

video and serial data components, and outputs it locally.

About this Manual

This manual details the installation and operation of the:

• MTP T 15HD RS twisted pair (TP) transmitter

• MTP RL 15HD RS receiver with loop-through

• MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receiver with loop-through and skew

equalization

In this manual:

• The term “transmitter” refers speciﬁcally to the MTP T 15HD RS

transmitter.

• The term “receiver” refers to either of the receiver models, the

MTP RL 15HD RS or MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ.

• The term “SEQ receiver” refers speciﬁcally to the

MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receiver with skew equalization capabili-

ties.
