Introduction
The Extron TP T 15HD 45 twisted pair transmitter and the
TP T 15HD 45 and TP T A 45
matching TP T A 45 audio input module provide a system for
sending RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, component, composite, or
S-video and stereo audio signals over Extron Skew-Free™ A/V
UTP cable or CAT 5/5e/6 UTP cable to a compatible TP or VTR
receiver. An external 12 VDC power supply provides power to
both the TP T 15HD 45 and the TP T A 45.
The TP T A 45 inputs unbalanced audio through a 3.5 mm stereo
phono jack and outputs digital audio to the TP T 15HD 45
transmitter.
The following table specifies the maximum recommended
transmission distances between the TP T 15HD 45 transmitter
and compatible Extron receivers at 60 Hz.

T-568-A is recommended when using Extron Enhanced

The two power supply leads must be kept separated
while the power supply is plugged into an electrical
outlet. Remove power before wiring.
Do not connect the transmitter to a computer data
or telecommunications network.
CAUTION
Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect
voltage polarity can damage the power supply and
the transmitter. Identify the power cord negative
lead by the ridges on the side of the cord.
When stripping the wire ends, please note that
stripped wire ends that are too short may pull out
from the captive screw connector and stripped wire
ends that are too long could possibly touch and
short together.
CAUTION
Using the included tweeker tool and observing the correct
wiring colors in the previous table, insert the stripped wire ends
(see note below) of the twisted pairs into the spring force
connector, as shown in the following diagram.
Strip approximately 0.43" (1.1 cm) of insulation from
each individual wire on one end of a TP cable.

with:
2
this chapter.
• VTR001, VTR001 AAP, and VTR001 MAAP (RGBHV/RGBS
only)
For best results, use Extron Skew-Free™ A/V UTP
cable available in bulk or in various preterminated
lengths. If necessary, regular CAT 5, CAT 5e, and CAT
6 cable may be used.
• TPX 88
Cable testing
Connect the external power supply to the TP T 15HD 45
and TP T A 45 (if installed). See Rear Panel Connectors in
this chapter.
3
To ensure proper cable termination, each transmission cable
system that uses CAT 5e or CAT 6 cable should be tested
(Extron Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable does not need to be
tested). Testing the cable from the transmitter and receiver
gives the most accurate indications of cable problems.
If the TP T A 45 is being installed, connect the TP T A 45 to
the transmitter. See Rear Panel Connectors in this chapter.
4
5

7
There are two varieties of cable runs: simple runs, in which a
single cable is terminated only at the transmitter and receiver,
and complex runs, which can include patch bays and multiple
terminations and lengths of cable. In either case, the entire
cabling system should be tested.
Connect an output display device to the output connector
of the receiver.
Connect a computer to the 15-pin video input connector
of the transmitter.
A complete test measures cable length and tests the wire map,
attenuation, NEXT, PSNEXT, ELFEXT, PSELFEXT, return loss,
ACR and PSACR. All of these tests are critical for digital data
transfer. While all of these tests are important indicators of the
quality of the cable termination, the most critical testing
parameters for video transfer are wire map (T-568-A or T-568-B
termination) and pair length measurements. The largest
concern is equalization of skew between cable pairs. Cable
systems of 300 feet or less should exhibit no transmission
problems if they pass at least CAT 5e or preferably CAT 6-D5
channel certification testing.
Connect and power up all input and output devices, then
apply power to the TP T 15HD 45 power supply and test
for the display and/or audio outputs. If a problem is
encountered, check all connections before proceeding
further.
If the previous display and/or audio test was successful,
power off and disconnect all equipment, detach cables,
and install the TP T 15HD 45 and/or TP T A 45 modules.
See Mounting in this chapter.
8
If the transmitter or receiver is to be wall-mounted and
the power supply will be inaccessible, power must be
applied to the power supply before final mounting.
The Microtest OMNI SCANNER 2 performs comprehensive
certification testing to the proposed CAT 6 standards. Other
manufacturers also make testing equipment. The tests include
advanced diagnostics for troubleshooting the cause and location
of many cable and termination problems. For simple
installation testing, the Microtest MICRO SCANNER PRO tests
wire map and cable length, including individual cable pair
length.
Connect all device and power cables. Power up all input
and output devices, apply power to the transmitter and
receiver, and test for the display and/or audio.

Compatibilty with other Extron products
As a pair, the TP T 15HD 45 and TP T A 45 are compatible with

Skew delay problems
TP T 15HD 45 and TP T A 45
CAT 5 TP cable can lead to registration errors between the red,
green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with
test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern
with a critical eye to determine if either the red, green, or blue
video image leads (appears to the left of) the other two video
images. These images can be minimized or eliminated by one
of the following methods:
•
•
Switch to Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable.
Add a skew compensation cable equal to the length of
pair skew to the receiver’s output.
•
Install an SEQ 100 15HD Skew Equalizer on the receiver’s
video output and adjust the skew for the leading video
image.
Mounting
The TP T 15HD 45 and TP T A 45 are designed to fit into a wall-
mountable or floor box-mountable 45 mm mounting frame.
