Twisted Pair Cable Configuration
Supported Cables
The distribution amplifiers are compatible with shielded twisted pair cable (F/UTP, SF/UTP,
and S/FTP).
ATTENTION:
•
Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or
STP201 cable to link the device with DTP transmitters or receivers.
•
N’utilisez pas le câble AV Skew-Free UTP version améliorée UTP23SF
d’Extron ou le câble STP201 pour relier le appareil avec les émetteurs ou les
récepteurs DTP.
Cable Recommendations
Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances and
reduce transmission errors.
•
Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and 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-T568B standard.
•
Limit the use of 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 shielded couplers and punch down connectors.
NOTE:
When using shielded twisted pair 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 hook-and-loop fasteners.
•
Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.
