Figure 8 — RS-232 connector wiring
By default, the RS-232 portion of the TP link is
unidirectional only from the transmitter to the receiver.
If there is only one receiver in a system, a jumper within
the receiver allows the RS-232 communication to be
bidirectional. See “Receiver Jumpering” on page 6.
Twisted pair connection and settings

Pre-Peak switch
The Pre-Peak switch alters the TP signal
output to correct for long cable runs. See the table on page 5 for
suggested switch settings based on the transmitted video
format and transmission distance.

Transmitter Output connector — Connect one end of a TP cable
to this RJ-45 female connector on the transmitter.
CAUTION
Do not connect these devices to a computer data or
telecommunications network.
The non-C7 transmitters and receivers will not work
properly with CAT 7 TP cable.
The C7 transmitters and receivers will work properly
only with CAT 7 UTP cable.
Connect the free end of the same TP cable from the transmitter
to the receiver’s Input RJ-45 female connector.
See “TP cable termination” on page 20 to properly wire the
RJ-45 connectors.
