About the DTP DP 330 and DTP DP 230 Extenders

  • The Extron DTP T/R DP transmitter and receiver pair (see figure 1, on the next page) are twisted pair Extender sets for transmission of:
  • HDCP-compliant DisplayPort video (which can include embedded digital audio)
  • Optional analog audio
  • RS-232 and IR control signals
  • NOTE: The RS-232 and IR communications are a passive pass-through only.
  • The transmitter and receiver do not generate or respond to the RS-232 and IR communication signals.
  • Transmission is over one Extron XTP DTP 24 shielded twisted pair (STP) cable (recommended) or Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6 STP cable. The two models are similar except for the transmission range:
  • DTP T/R DP 330 — Up to 330 feet (100 m)
  • DTP T/R DP 230 — Up to 230 feet (70 m)

TP Cable Advantages

  • Twisted pair cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial or HDMI cable. These transmitter and receiver twisted pair (TP) products make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome.
  • Termination of the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.
  • NOTE: Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201 cable to link the transmitter and receiver. The DTP DP transmitter and receiver do not work properly with these cables.

Connector and Cable Details

TP cable termination and recommendations
Figure 6 details the TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standard. Use this standard to terminate TP cables with RJ-45 connectors.

NOTE: Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201 cable to link the transmitter and receiver. The DTP DisplayPort units do not work properly with these cables.
Supported cables —
The DTP TR D/P 330 and DTP T/R DP 230 are compatible with shielded twisted pair (STP) and unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cables. However, Extron strongly recommends that you use STP cable to achieve the best performance.
Cable recommendations —
Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances up to 330 feet (100 m) (DTP T/R DP 330) or 230 feet (70 m) (DTP T/R DP 230) and reduce transmission errors.

Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and DTP 24 connectors for the best performance:

  • XTP DTP 24/1000 Non-Plenum 1000′ (305 m) spool 22-236-03
  • XTP DTP 24P/1000 Plenum 1000′ (305 m) spool 22-235-03
  • XTP DTP 24 Plug Package of 10 101-005-02
  • If not using XTP DTP 24 cable, at a minimum, Extron recommends 24 AWG, solid conductor, STP cable with a minimum bandwidth of 400 MHz.
  • Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA T 568 B standard.
  • Use no more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points, punch-down connectors, couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points are required, use CAT 6 or 6a shielded couplers and punch-down connectors.
  • NOTE: When using STP cable in bundles or conduits, consider the following:
  • Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.
  • Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are straightened, aligned, and secured in tight bundles.
  • Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or Velcro®.
  • Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.

Power supply wiring

  • NOTE: One power supply is included with the transmitter and normally can power both units.
  • Figure 7 shows how to wire the connector. Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.

CAUTION:

ATTENTION :

  • The wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before wiring.
  • The length of exposed wires is important. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm).
  • Any longer and the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit.
  • Any shorter and the wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
  • Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them in the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the connector and could be pulled out.

ATTENTION:

  • This product is intended to be supplied by a UL-listed power source marked “Class 2” or “LPS,” rated 12 VDC, 1.0 A minimum. Always use a power supply supplied by or specified by Extron.
  • Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.
  • The installation must always be under the applicable provisions of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 725, and the Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, section 16.
  • The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to a building structure or similar structure.
  • Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect voltage polarity can damage the power supply and the unit. The ridges on the side of the cord (see Figure 7 on the previous page) identify the power cord’s negative lead.
  • To verify the polarity before connection, plug in the power supply with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.

RS-232 and IR connector wiring

  • Figure 8 shows how to wire the RS-232 connector.

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 audio connector NOTES on page 6 for details).
