Cable recommendations
Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances up
to 230 feet (70 meters) or 330 feet (100 meters) and reduce transmission errors.
•
Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 STP cables and DTP 24 connectors for the best
performance:
•
XTP DTP 24/1000
Non‑Plenum 1000 feet (305 meters) spool
•
XTP DTP 24P/1000
Plenum 1000 feet (305 meters) spool
•
XTP DTP 24 Plug
Package of 10
•
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.
•
Use no 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 Category 6 or 6a shielded couplers and punch down connectors.
NOTE:
When using TP 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.
Analog Audio Output Connector
Analog audio output connector
Connect an audio device, such as an audio amplifier or powered speakers, to a
3.5 millimeter, 5‑pole captive screw connector (see figure 9). This connector outputs
unamplified, line level audio. Use the supplied tie‑wrap to strap the audio cable to the
extended tail of the connector.

DO NOT
connect the sleeves to the negative (‑) contacts.
•
Pour l’audio asymétrique, connectez les manchons au contact au sol.
NE PAS
connecter les manchons aux contacts négatifs (–).
NOTES:
•
The length of exposed wires is important. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 millimeter).
•
Do not tin the wires!
