 MTP 4T 15HD RS Quad Transmitter 60-905-01 Retired

This product has been retired.

The Extron MTP 4T 15HD RS Quad MTP Twisted Pair Transmitter offers four independent transmitters for VGA and bidirectional RS-232 in a single 1U rack-mountable enclosure. Each transmitter sends combined video and serial communication signals over a single UTP cable and supports cable runs of 600 feet (185 meters) or more with XGA signals, and 450 feet (135 meters) or more with UXGA signals. The MTP 4T 15HD RS is ideal for use with an Extron matrix switcher for use in applications such as digital signage and overflow rooms.

The MTP 4T 15HD RS accepts up to four separate high resolution computer-video inputs on female 15-pin HD connectors and serial communication signals on female 3.5 mm captive screw connectors. Each transmitter in the MTP 4T 15HD RS also features a local monitor output for systems that require local displays.

Extron MTP 15HD RS transmitters and receivers precisely optimize image quality for various UTP cable lengths using adjustment controls on both the transmitter and receiver. The transmitters feature a pre-peaking switch that provides additional compensation at the front end for the longest cable runs. The receivers offer separate variable gain and peaking controls, allowing users to dial in the exact amount of gain and peaking required for each unique cable run.

When using data grade twisted pair cable for sending high-resolution video signals long distances, a problem called skew can cause a distortion in the image, resulting in visible color separation. Extron offers two options for solving this problem and restoring image quality. The first option is to use Extron's Enhanced Skew-Free™ AV UTP Cable to make system connections. The second is to place an SEQ 100 15HD Skew Equalizer at the receiving end of any cable run where skew is a problem.

MTP 15HD RS Series transmitters and receivers are compatible with resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA) and are ideal for such applications as large training facilities, museums, airports, movie theaters, and hotels. These products are well suited for any application that requires a cost-effective solution for sending RGBHV, RGBS, HDTV, component video, S-video, and composite video with serial control signals long distances over UTP cable.

Extron MTP 15HD Series products set the price/performance standard for AV twisted pair technology. The MTP 15HD Series is a complete twisted pair system including transmitters, receivers, DAs, switchers, and matrix switchers providing the ability to send, route, and distribute high resolution video, audio, and control signals.
