Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them
in the direct insertion connector. Tinned wires are not as
secure in the connectors and could be pulled out.
Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the
extended tail of the connector.
Your transmitter/receiver pair may have shipped with a
blue captive screw connector. This blue connector can be
plugged into either a blue or an orange power receptacle.
The blue connector does not have the extended tail or the
included tie-wrap.
Alternatively, an optional Extron PS 123 Universal 12 VDC
Power Supply, part #60-814-01, can power multiple Extron
12 VDC devices using only one AC power connector.
TP cable termination
RJ-45 termination with CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 cable
(for non-C7 units only) or CAT 7 cable (for C7 units
only) must comply with the TIA/EIA T568A or
TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards for all connections.
RJ-45 termination with Skew-Free A/V UTP cable (for
non-C7 units only) must comply with TIA/EIA T568A
only.
The non C7 transmitters and receivers will not work
properly with CAT 7 TP cable.
The C7 transmitters and receivers will work properly
only with CAT 7 UTP cable.
Figure 11, on the next page, details the recommended
termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in accordance
with the TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards.
You can use either standard with CAT 5/5e/6/7 cable, but
ensure that you use the same standard on both ends of the
cable.

For proper gounding of CAT 7 cable only, ensure the
shield around each wire pair and the shield around the
CAT 7 cable are all tied to the RJ-45 connectors on both
ends, in accordance with the connector manufacturer
specifications.
The audio data that is carried on wire pair 3 and 6 is
incompatible with the Extron TPX 88A, which cannot
switch the audio, output it locally, or break it away.
Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable is not recommended for
Ethernet/LAN applications. This cable is specially
designed for compatibility with Extron’s Twisted Pair
products that are wired using the TIA/EIA T568A
standard.
The green, brown, and blue wire pairs of this cable have
virtually identical lengths and should be used to
transmit the RGB signals.
The orange wire pair of this cable has a different length
and should not be used to transmit the RGB signals.
