Introduction The Extron VTT001 Twisted Pair (TP) Transmitter Series and VTR001 Twisted Pair Receiver Series provide a system for sending VGA, RGBHV, ansd RGBS signals up to 500 feet (150 meters) over Extron Skew-Free AV UTP cable. They can also send these signals over CAT 5/5e/6 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable. Both transmitter and receiver have remote power capability.
Features • Video sharpness control — Optimizes the video image for different cable lengths between transmitter and receiver. • Removable faceplate — The module faceplate may be removed for tabletop use or attachment to an equipment rack. • Compatibility — The VTR001 receiver also functions as the receiver for output from the Extron IN1404XT video scaler, Extron TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, TP T BNC, TP T 15HD 45, TPX 88, TPX 88 A, and TP T BNC DA4.

Ä Transmitter output connector — A female RJ-45 connector on a 3 inch pigtail for the VTT001 MAAP, or within the VTT001 model. Plug the twisted pair cable going to the receiver into this connector. CAUTION: Do not connect the transmitter to a computer data or telecommunications network. Å Receiver input connector — A female RJ-45 connector on a 3 inch pigtail for the VTR001 MAAP and VTR001 AAP models, or within the VTR001 model. Plug the twisted pair cable coming from the transmitter into this connector.
CAUTION: Do not tin the stripped power supply leads before inserting them into the captive screw connector. Tinned leads are not as securely attached as untinned leads and could slip out. NOTE: Both transmitter and receiver have remote power capability. For transmission distances up to 300 feet, the power is required only at either the transmitter orwiring.eps the receiver. Greater distances will require power to be applied to Power Connector both transmitter and receiver.

Cabling and Setup To install the VTT001 MAAP and VTT001 models and the VTR001 MAAP, VTR001 AAP, and VTR001 models, follow these steps: 1. Turn all of the equipment off and, if applicable, disconnect it from the power source. 2. Connect the RJ-45 connectors of the transmitter and receiver to either end of the twisted pair cable (see Cable Testing on page 8 and Equalizing Pair Skew on page 9).
NOTE: If the transmitter or receiver is to be wall mounted and the power supply will be inaccessible, power must be applied to the power supply before final mounting. Compatibilty with Other Extron Products The VTT001 series and VTR001 series products can communicate with other Extron products. The following tables indicate how the products interact.
Equalizing Pair Skew Pair skew issues are eliminated when you use Extron Skew-Free AV UTP cables. The manufacturing process for CAT 5e or CAT 6 network UTP cable leads to a condition called pair skew. For best results, pair skew needs to be equalized when using the CAT 5e or CAT 6 cable in AV applications. The design of the Extron Skew-Free AV UTP cable minimizes pair skew to the point that equalization is not required.
Mounting The mountable transmitter (VTT001 MAAP) and mountable receiver (VTR001 MAAP) may be attached to a wall with either a stud-mounted wall box or with an MR Series modular mud ring (Extron part number: 70-519-xx). Both installations require the double spaced MAAP connector frame, such as the CPM101). The transmitter/receiver module can also be attached to any Extron MAAP device that accepts a double spaced AV connector panel, or the modules may be rack mounted.

Rack mounting instructions Various 1U rack space frames accommodate the VTT001 MAAP, VTR001 MAAP, and VTR001 AAP modules. The CPM133 is a one-third rack width frame that can be mounted to the IN9080 rack mount shelf. The CPM112R, as shown below, is a full rack width frame that holds six double sized modules. Depending on the AV connector frame used, the transmitters/receivers may be mounted to the rack with or without the rack mount shelf. 1.
For mounting the VTT001 MAAP or VTR001 MAAP to a rack mount shelf, mount the transmitter/receiver modules to the AV connector frame, then attach the frame to the shelf, as shown below.
