Introduction
It is possible to exceed the recommended distances,
however, image quality may be reduced.
About the TP Receivers
The Extron Twisted Pair (TP) receivers receive transmissions of
The TP receivers can only receive and output signals
transmitted by Extron TP transmitters. This user’s manual
documents the installation, features, and operation of the TP
receivers only. For information about the TP transmitters, refer
to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, which accompanies
the transmitters.
RGB video, component video, S-video, composite video, and
stereo audio over Extron’s Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable or
standard Category (CAT) 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP),
shielded twisted pair (STP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP)
cable. The TP R BNC A, TP R BNC AV, and TP R AV receivers
are designed for longer transmission distances (200 to 1000 feet)
and the TP R 15HD A is designed for shorter transmission
distances (100 to 800 feet).
Features
The minimum reliable transmission distance for the TP R BNC A,
TP R BNC AV, and TP R AV is 50 feet. The TP R 15HD A
provides reliable reception and high quality video output
without the minimum distance limitation.
All Extron TP receivers provide the following features:
Audio output — Provides unbalanced (left/right) audio on
RCA connectors, and balanced or unbalanced audio on
3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors.
The maximum distance is determined by the output frequency
and resolution. The following table specifies the recommended
maximum transmission distances using Extron skew-free A/V
UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable, terminated with CAT 6, or at
least CAT 5e, rated connectors.
Level control — Allows you to manually control the image
brightness.
Peaking control — Allows you to manually control the image
sharpness.
Extron recommends using the highest quality cable
available and affordable. We also recommend the use of
pre-terminated and tested cables. Cables terminated on
site should be tested before use to ensure that they
comply with Category 5e specifications.
TP R BNC A receiver
The TP R BNC A receiver has the following features:
Video output — Provides RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB video on 5
BNC connectors.
RJ-45 connector — Allows attachment to an Extron TP

Installation and Operation
Installation Overview
All TP transmitters include a 15V external power
supply. The transmitters also receive power from the
associated Extron TP receiver(s) (with the exception of
the TP R 15HD A) via the TP cable. Extron
recommends using the local power supply; however, the
power supply may not be necessary in some applications.
Use the following guidelines:
To install and set up a TP receiver and the associated TP
transmitter(s) for operation, perform the following steps:
Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the
video source(s) (such as computers or DVD players), the
transmitter, the receiver, and the output display(s).
1
•
The TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, and
TP T BNC may not require a local power supply for
cable lengths of 300 feet or less.
For component, S-video, or composite video, ensure that
the internal jumpers (TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV) or
external DIP switch (TP R 15HD A) are in the correct
position. See Video jumpers or Video DIP switch in this
chapter.
2
•
•
The TP T AV may not require a local power supply
for cable lengths of 800 feet or less.
The TP T BNC DA4 and any transmitter
connected to a TP R 15HD A always require the
local power supply.
TP R BNC AV and TP R AV only — If desired, configure
the audio jumpers to make the receiver compatible with
unmodified TP transmitters. See Audio jumpers in this
chapter.
3
If problems are encountered, use the local power supply.
The TP R BNC AV and TP R AV are redesigned
(modified) receivers. The audio jumpers configure the
audio portion of the composite video TP link to work
with either similarly redesigned TP T 15HD AV and
TP T AV transmitters or with older, unmodified
transmitters. Redesigned receivers and transmitters
have an identifying label.
Adjust the picture controls on the transmitter(s) and the
receiver. See Controls and Indicators in this chapter and
refer to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part
#68-546-01.
9
Video jumpers
The TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV receivers can be configured
to receive component video, S-video, or composite video.
Mount the receiver in a rack (all except TP R AV) (the
TP R 15HD A can be mounted in a standard rack or in a
VersaTools rack), under a desk or podium, in a desk or
table (all except TP R 15HD A), or on a projector bracket.
See Mounting the receiver in this chapter.
4
5
The receivers are factory configured for RGB video. To
receive any other type of video, reconfigure the jumpers.
Connect the cable(s) between the TP transmitter(s) and the
receiver. See Transmitted signal cabling in this chapter and
refer to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part
#68-546-01.
Connect the output cables. See Output cabling in this
chapter.

8
Configure the TP transmitter(s). Refer to the TP
Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part #68-546-01.
Connect power cords to the TP receiver, the TP
transmitter, and turn on the video source(s) and the
output display(s).

TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV
If you intend to match this receiver with an older, unmodified
TP transmitter, and do not plan to include a TPX 88 A in your
system, you can set the receiver to receive the audio on wire
pair 7 and 8, to be compatible with an older TP transmitter, by
shifting internal jumpers as follows:
Figure 2-1 — Video jumper configuration
2.
Using an Extron BNC extraction tool (part #100-096-01) or a
14 mm, deep well socket with thin walls, remove the five or
six hex nuts securing the BNC connectors to the rear panel.
3.
4.
Slide the cover forward until the cover clears the BNC
connectors and then lift the cover off.
TP R BNC AV only: Remove the four screws securing the
video board to the RGB board and lift the video board out
of the way.
5.
Locate J3 on the RGB video printed circuit board. See
figure 2-1.
a.
For RGB video, ensure that pin 2 is jumpered to
pin 3.
b.
For any other video format, ensure that pin 1 is
jumpered to pin 2.
6.
Reinstall the video board, replace the cover, and reinstall
the screws and BNC connector hex nuts.
