About the DTP DVI 230 Tx/Rx Transmitter and Receiver
The Extron DTP DVI 230 Tx/Rx transmitter and receiver pair (see figure 1) extends the
usable distance of DVI digital video, optional analog audio, and bidirectional RS‑232 and
infrared (IR) control signals over one Extron XTP DTP 24 shielded twisted pair (STP) cable
(recommended) or Category (CAT) 5e, CAT 6, or CAT 6a STP or unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) cable. The DTP DVI 230 can also extend HDMI video, which may include embedded
audio, with the appropriate adapters. The video, audio, and control signals can be
transmitted up to 230 feet (70 m).
