TP cable termination
N
RJ-45 termination with CAT 5, CAT 5e, CAT 6, or CAT
7 cable must comply with the TIA/EIA T 568A wiring
standard for all connections.
Figure 2-15 details the recommended termination of TP cables
with RJ-45 connectors in accordance with the
TIA/EIA T 568A
wiring standard.

Do not use Extron’s UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free
™
A/V UTP cable to link the transmitter and receiver.
Skew-free A/V cable was designed for most Extron TP
transmitter/receiver applications, but the DVI or HDMI
Tx/Rx will not work properly with this cable.
N
If necessary, test for proper cable connection (output 1 to
input 1, output 2 to input 2) as follows:
1
. Plug both TP cables into the powered unit.
2
. Momentarily connect either of the cables on the
opposite end into the unpowered unit‘s “2” connector.
If the unpowered unit’s Power LED is lit
, the
connection is correct.
If the unpowered unit’s Power LED is not lit
,
quickly unplug the connector on the unpowered end
and connect the other cable to the “2” connector.
Terminating shielded cable
N
The transmitter and receiver pair works with unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables;
but, to ensure FCC Class A and CE compliance, STP
cables are recommended.
The Tx/Rx includes four shielded RJ-45 connectors and a length
of self-adhesive shielded tape that you can use to make the STP
cables that connect the transmitter and receiver.
N
Extron supplies the connectors and the shielded tape.
You must supply the CAT 5, 5e, 6, or 7 STP cable.
Terminate the STP cable as follows:
1
.
Peel back the cable shielding (fi gure 2-16) from the
end of the cable the length of the RJ-45 connector body
(approximately 7/8" [2.2 cm]) and fold it back.
Peel back shield and
fold back.

2
.
Cut away and discard the clear cellophane inner wrapper
from the end of the cable back to the folded-over cable
shielding.
