About this Guide
This guide contains information about the following Extron
®
PowerCageMTP 15HD RSA modular board-designed twisted pair transmitters and receivers
for the PowerCage Modular Power Enclosures:
• PowerCage MTP T 15HD RSA transmitter
• PowerCage MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ receiver
This guide includes instructions for an experienced installer to install, configure, and operate
the equipment.
NOTE: In this guide, the term “PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA” refers to both
MTP T 15HD RSA transmitter and MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ receiver boards.
Where differences exist between the two boards, the full name of the board is
used in the description.
About the PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA Transmitters and Receivers
The Extron PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA transmitters and receivers are modular board-
designed MTP Twisted Pair boards that are exclusively for use in Extron PowerCage 1600
enclosure. They can be used with any CAT 5, 5e, or 6, or with Extron Enhanced Skew-Free
™
A/V UTP cable, and are compatible with all MTP products.
The PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA transmitters and receivers must be installed in an Extron
PowerCage enclosure.
NOTE: To mount and install the Extron PowerCage, refer to the guide supplied with the
unit, or the PowerCage 1600 Enclosure User Guide, at www.extron.com.
The PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA transmitters and receivers boards are as follows:
• PowerCage MTP T 15HD RSA transmitter — This board supports RGB, HD-YUV, YUV,
S-video and composite video on a 15-pin HD VGA connector, and audio on a 5-pole
captive screw connector. The output to a compatible MTP receiver is made over twisted
pair cabling (CAT 5, 5e, 6, or Enhanced Skew-Free UTP cable) via the RJ-45 connector.
There is a 3-pole, captive screw connector for RS-232 communication.
A 2-pole DIP switch on the board allows the user (using switch #2) to select between
RS-232 and audio transmission (default setting is audio).
NOTE: See the “Board Setup and Operation” section, for details of how to access
and set the DIP switches.
