SINGLE-GANG TWISTED PAIR TRANSMITTERS

15 September 2014

Extron Electronics has introduced two single-gang DTP wallplate transmitters for sending HDMI, audio and bidirectional RS-232 and IR signals over a shielded CATx cable to its DTP-enabled products.

The DTP T HWP 231 D extends signals up to 70m while the DTP T HWP 331 D extends signals up to 100m. The one-gang form factor provides maximum space efficiency and the transmitters support computer video up to 2560×1600, HDTV 1080p/60 and 4K resolutions. Both models also accept analogue stereo audio signals for simultaneous transmission over the same shielded twisted pair cable. They feature remote power capability plus bidirectional RS-232 and IR pass-through for remote AV device control.

“These latest DTP twisted pair transmitters meet the needs of AV integrators for wallplates in an even smaller form factor to fit into the tightest spaces for streamlined DTP system designs,” says Extron sales and marketing VP Casey Hall. “With a compact size that can easily be installed on a wall, in a floor box or in presentation furniture, our new DTP transmitters offer AV system designers the flexibility to locate input connections in the most convenient locations.”

Both transmitters support 12-bit Deep Colour, CEC pass-through, and embedded HD lossless audio formats, and maintain DDC communication of EDID and HDCP between a source and display for reliable operation. They can be remotely powered by Extron DTP CrossPoint 84 matrix switchers or other DTP-enable products over the twisted pair cable, and also offer an HDBaseT output mode.
