3 Overview
This user manual describes the following:
• TP-121EDID XGA / Audio Line Transmitter (see section 4)
- TP-123EDID XGA / Audio / Data Line Transmitter (see section 5)
- TP-125EDID XGA / Audio / Data Line Transmitter (see section 6)
• PT-110EDID XGA Line Transmitter (see section 7)
This section describes:
- Using shielded twisted pair (STP) / unshielded twisted pair (UTP), see section 3.1
- The power connect feature, see section 3.2
- Defining EDID, see section 3.3
- Recommendations for achieving the best performance, see section 3.4
3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) / Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
We recommend that you use shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. There are different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our non-skew-free cable, Kramer BC-STP is intended for analog signals where skewing is not an issue. For cases where there is skewing, our UTP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-XTP, may be used. Bear in mind, though, that we advise using STP cables where possible, since the compliance to electromagnetic interference was tested using those cables.
Although unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable might be preferred for long range applications, the UTP cable should be installed far away from electric cables, motors and so on, which are prone to create electrical interference. However, since the use of UTP cable might cause inconformity to electromagnetic standards, Kramer does not commit to meeting the standard with UTP cable.
3.2 About the Power Connect Feature
The Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power. The distance does not exceed 50m on standard CAT 5 cable, for longer distances, heavy gauge cable should be used ^1 .
For a CAT 5 cable exceeding a distance of 50m, separate power supplies should be connected to the transmitter and to the receiver simultaneously.
3.3 Defining EDID
The TP-121EDID, TP-123EDID, TP-125EDID, and PT-110EDID include:
• EDID Capture - Copies and stores the EDID from a display device
The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID ^1 ) is a data-structure, provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is connected to the display's source). The EDID enables the graphic source to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer's name, the product type, the timing data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) the pixel mapping data.
3.4 Recommendations for Achieving the Best Performance
To achieve the best performance:
- Use only good quality connection cables ^2 to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).
- Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer transmitters away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
Caution:
No operator serviceable parts inside unit
Warning:
Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with the unit
Warning:
Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall before installing or removing the device or servicing unit
4 Your TP-121EDID XGA / Audio Line Transmitter
The TP-121EDID is an XGA / audio stereo line transmitter. It receives an XGA signal and an unbalanced stereo analog audio signal and transmits them over CAT 5 cable to a receiver ^3 , converting the unbalanced stereo analog audio signal to digital audio (S/PDIF) stream before transmitting, thus preserving the quality of the audio signal.
When the TP-121EDID is connected to a display device and the EDID CAPTURE button is pressed, the TP-121EDID reads and stores the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) from the display device. The display can be disconnected and later reconnected without rebooting the operating system.
In particular, the TP-121EDID:
- Has a transmission range of more than 300ft (more than 100m), and a 20kHz audio bandwidth with an S/N ratio that exceeds 80dB on the same transmission range
- Can power or be powered by the receiver over the same CAT 5 cable
- Is 12V DC fed

6 Your TP-125EDID XGA / Audio / Data Line Transmitter
The TP-125EDID is a high-performance transmitter that accepts:
• A computer graphics input signal
• An unbalanced stereo analog audio signal
• RS-232 control commands
The TP-125EDID codes the signals and transmits them over CAT 5 cable to a receiver ^1 . The stereo analog audio signal is converted to the digital audio (S/PDIF) stream before transmitting, thus preserving the quality of the audio source signals. Commands and data can flow in both directions via the RS-232 interface, allowing status requests and control of the destination unit. The TP-125EDID includes H and V Sync internal polarity switches.
When the TP-125EDID is connected to a display device and the EDID CAPTURE button is pressed, the TP-125EDID reads and stores the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) from the display device. The display can be disconnected and later reconnected without rebooting the operating system.
Figure 6 and Table 6 define the TP-125EDID:
