Introduction
The Extron MTP DA4 and MTP DA8 twisted pair (TP)
distribution ampliers (DAs) distribute a single TP input signal
to four or eight MTP receivers. The TP input can be from any of
the following MTP transmitter and switcher families:
• MTP T SV S-video transmitter (all models)
• MTP T CV composite video transmitter (all models)
• MTP T 15HD A RGB/high resolution video and audio
transmitter (all models)
• MTP T 15HD RS RGB/high resolution video and serial
link transmitter (all models)
• SW MTP T 15HD A video and audio switcher with built-
in TP transmitter
• VTT001 RGB/high resolution video transmitter
The MTP DAs are part of a system (gure 1) for long-distance
distribution of VGA or other high resolution video and either
audio or a serial link over TP cable. Extron’s Enhanced
Skew-Free
™
A/V UTP cable is preferred, but Category (CAT) 5
shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), and
foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable are also acceptable.
