Installation and Operation
Mount the units as appropriate for the particular installation.
There are #6-32` tapped holes on the top and bottom of the T2-CARX
for mounting. Use #6-32 screws that protrude through no longer than
1/2". An undertable tab mounting kit is provided with the receiver unit.
There is also a half rack kit available from FSR for mounting in a stan-
dard 19” rack mount. See “accessories” section for FSR part numbers
and ordering information.
The T2-CATXW resembles a decora style duplex outlet shape and will
mount into a standard gang box. Connect the RJ-45 jack and power sup-
ply leads BEFORE mounting the unit in the gang box. Always check for
cable clearance while mounting.
The input power connector is NOT polarity sensitive and should be con-
nected to the provided supply to both the transmitter and receiver. Do
not plug in the supplies until all cables are tested.
Cabling Installation details:
Install and terminate the UTP cable, taking note of the following. The
cable must be terminated using the EIA/TIA-568B standard pairing.
Where possible, the use of pre terminated, pretested cables is highly
recommended. If fi eld termination is required, be sure to use a commer-
cially available cable tester to confi rm the proper wiring.
While Cat 5/5E cables are the most commonly used with the system,
other types of UTP cable can be used successfully. One of the most im-
portant cable parameters affecting the image quality of component video
systems (RGB/RGBHV/YUV, etc.) transmitted over the Twister is delay
skew. Delay skew in a cable will result in a loss of color convergence at
the display.
The use of generic CAT 5/5E/6 cable will generally give acceptable
results in short to medium length applications (up to 300’). For longer
distances, or where the highest image quality is paramount, use the skew
compensated model T2-CARX-S receiver. USE OF BELDEN NANO-
SKEW OR OTHER NON-CATEGORY CABLE IS NOT RECOM-
MENDED. The crosstalk on these types of cables is very high resulting
in poor color isolation, and video noise from the audio transport channel.
