DTP HDMI 230 Tx/Rx Transmitter and Receiver • Introduction vi
Introduction • About this Guide • About the DTP HDMI 230 Transmitter and Receiver • Features About this Guide This guide describes the Extron DTP HDMI 230 Long Distance High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) Twisted Pair Extender, which consists of a DTP HDMI 230 Tx transmitter and a DTP HDMI 230 Rx receiver. This guide describes how to install, operate, and configure the transmitter and receiver.
The DTP HDMI 230 Tx/Rx units are housed in quarter rack width metal enclosures. They can be set on a tabletop or mounted in a rack, under or through furniture. The receiver can also be mounted on a projector bracket. The transmitter is shipped with a single external desktop 12 VDC power supply that accepts 100 to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz input. A single power supply connected to either the transmitter or the receiver can power both units through the TP cable that carries HDMI video.
Installation and Operation This section describes the installation and the operation of the DTP HDMI 230 Tx/Rx Extender, including: • Mounting the Units • Connections • Operation Mounting the Units Mounting instructions can be found in Mounting the Transmitter or Receiver on page 10. Compatible optional hardware is listed on the Extron website (www.extron.com). ATTENTION: • Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.

SIG LINK AUDIO OVER DTP RS-232 1 IR DTP OUT Tx Rx G Tx Rx 4 3 DTP HDMI 230 Tx Connectors a HDMI input connector — Connect an HDMI cable between this port and the HDMI output port (or DVI port, with an appropriate adapter) of the digital video source. b Audio input connector — If desired, plug an analog audio input into the transmitter via this stereo mini jack connector.
e Power input connector — Plug the included external 12 VDC power supply into either this 2-pole connector or the power input connector on the receiver (item j on page 6). See Power supply wiring on page 8 to wire the connector. NOTES: • One power supply is included with the transmitter and normally can power both units. • If you have removed the ground jumpers (see Disconnecting the Ground on page 11) because of ground potential differences, one DTP HDMI 230 unit cannot remotely power the other unit.
h Audio output connector — This 5-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector outputs the transmitted, unamplified, line level analog audio. Connect an audio device, such as an audio amplifier or powered speakers. See figure 4 to properly wire a captive screw output connector. Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the audio cable to the extended tail of the connector. NO GROUND HERE Tip Ring R Figure 4.
Connector and Cable Details TP cable termination and recommendations Figure 5 details the TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standard. Use this standard to terminate TP cables with RJ-45 connectors. Side Pins: RJ-45 Connector 12345678 Pin Insert Twisted Pair Wires Figure 5.
Power supply wiring NOTES: • One power supply is included with the transmitter and normally can power both units. • If you have removed the ground jumpers (see Disconnecting the Ground on page 11) because of ground potential differences, one DTP HDMI 230 unit cannot remotely power the other unit. Each unit requires a local power supply. Figure 6 shows how to wire the connector. Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.
RS-232 and IR connector wiring Figure 7 shows how to wire the RS-232 connector. IR Device Rx Tx Gnd Tx Rx Tx Rx G IR RS-232 Tx/Rx Pins Tx Rx Gnd RS-232 Device Figure 7. RS-232 Connector Wiring NOTES: • The IR Tx and Rx line pair and the RS-232 Tx and Rx line pair must each cross once between this connector and the source or destination. • The length and preparation of exposed wires is important (see the second and third audio connector NOTES on page 6 for details).
Reference Information This section provides procedures for mounting the DTP HDMI 230 Tx/Rx transmitter and receiver and disconnecting the ground between them. • Mounting the Transmitter or Receiver • Disconnecting the Ground Mounting the Transmitter or Receiver ATTENTION: • Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.
UL Rack-Mounting Guidelines The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the installation of the unit into a rack. • Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (TMA = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.
3. Locate, lift off, and discard jumpers JMP2 and JMP3 from both units (see figure 10). JMP3, JMP2 JMP2 JMP3 Transmitter Receiver Figure 10. Jumper Locations 4. Reinstall the covers on both units, securing them in place with the screws removed in step 2. 5. Reinstall both units in their racks or other installation option (see Mounting the Transmitter and Receiver on page 10). 6. If you are using shielded cable, disconnect the cable shield from the connector at either end of the cable. 7.
