TP connectors
All RJ-45 ports, whether DTP ports, the Expansion port, and the LAN
(Ethernet) ports on the IPCP control processor use twisted pair cables
(see gure 8).
• Patch (straight) cable —
• DTP input and output ports — Shielded twisted pair (STP) for
connection to Extron DTP transmitters and receivers, XTP matrix
switchers, or HDBaseT-enabled devices.
• Expansion port — STP for connection between the matrix
switcher and a DMP 128. A shielded 1-foot cable is included with
the DMP 128.
• LAN ports — Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or STP for
connection of the LAN port to an Ethernet LAN.
• Crossover cable (see gure 8) —
• LAN ports — UTP or STP for direct connection between the
DTP CrossPoint 84 matrix switcher and a connected computer.
A cable that is wired as T568A at one end
and T568B at the other (Tx and Rx pairs
reversed) is a "crossover" cable.
A cable that is wired the same at both ends is
called a "straight-through" cable, because
no pin/pair assignments are swapped.

NOTES:
• Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables do not
support Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.
• Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
LAN ports
The LAN ports require Category (CAT) 3, CAT 5e, or CAT 6a unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, crossover or
patch cables.
The cable used depends on your network speed. The switcher LAN
port supports both 10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps
(100Base-T — Fast Ethernet), half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet
connections. Input and output boards support 100Base-T only.
• 10Base-T Ethernet requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable at minimum.
• 100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable at
minimum.
See the IPCP Pro Series User Guide at www.extron.com to make all
network connections and to congure and operate the IPCP control
processor.
DTP and Expansion ports
The DTP input and output ports are compatible with Extron
XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables, as well as CAT 5e, 6, 6a, and 7 shielded
twisted pair (F/UTP, SF/UTP, and S/FTP) cable. The Expansion port
requires CAT 5e, 6, 6a, or 7 shielded twisted pair cable.
For the Expansion port only —
ATTENTION:
• Connect this port to the Expansion port on a compatible Extron
DMP processor. Do NOT connect this port to a LAN or Power
over Ethernet port; equipment damage can occur.
• Connectez ce port au port d’expansion sur un processeur
DMP d’Extron compatible. Ne connectez PAS ce port à un port
LAN ou d’alimentation via Ethernet ; le matériel pourrait être
endommagé.
