Overview  
Using the TP-9 Audio/Video Line Transmitter with the TP-10 Audio/Video  
Line Receiver constitutes an Audio/Video Line transmitter/receiver system.  
The TP-9 accepts the audio and video input signals, encodes and sends  
them to the CAT 5 cable. The TP-10 receives the CAT 5 signal, which  
includes both audio and video, decodes and distributes it to the audio and  
video acceptors. The IR signal from the remote control is transmitted from  
the TP-10, via the CAT 5 cable to the TP-9, which is connected to a video  
source, letting you control the video source via its remote control  
transmitter from a distance.  
The TP-9 Audio/Video Line Transmitter includes:  
A composite video input on a BNC connector and an s-Video (Y/C)  
input on a 4-pin connector  
A digital audio input (S/PDIF) and an analog stereo audio input  
IR emitter outputs for up to two machines  
A CAT 5 LINE OUT RJ-45 connector for signal transmission to the  
TP-10 and IR reception  
The TP-10 Audio/Video Line Receiver includes:  
A composite video output on a BNC connector and an s-Video (Y/C)  
output on a 4-pin connector  
A digital audio output (S/PDIF) and an analog stereo audio output  
An IR sensor  
A CAT 5 LINE IN RJ-45 connector for signal reception from the TP-9  
and IR transmission  
Level and EQ. controls for the CV and Y/C signals  
Kramer twisted pair adapters are an excellent way to solve remote  
controlling requirements without using more costly coaxial cable or fiber, or  
wireless transmission systems.  
To achieve the best performance:  
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding  
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 TP-9  
and/or TP-10 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Overview  
3.1 About the Power Connect Feature  
The Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power.  
This feature is available when using STP cable and the distance does not  
exceed 50m on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances, heavy gauge  
cable should be used1. For units which are connected via RJ-45 connectors,  
make sure that the shield of the STP cable is connected to the metal casing  
of the connectors on both ends of the cable. For units which are connected  
via terminal block connectors, the shield of the STP cable must be  
connected to a ground terminal on the units at both ends (use the ground  
terminal of the power supply connection if necessary).  
For a CAT 5 cable exceeding a distance of 50m, separate power supplies  
should be connected to the transmitter and to the receiver simultaneously.  
3.2 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.  
1 CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these distances

Connecting an Audio/Video Distribution System  
To configure a TP-9/TP-10 audio/video distribution system (for example,  
for high quality home cinema system), as Figure 5 illustrates, do the following:  
1. On the TP-9 connect:  
ƒ A composite video source (for example, a video player) to the CV  
IN BNC connector  
ƒ A digital audio source (for example, the video player’s audio  
signal) to the AUDIO IN S/PDIF RCA connector  
ƒ The IR OUT 2, 3.5mm mini connector to the IR receiver1 (on the  
video player) via the IR emitter cable (see Figure 4)  
2. On the TP-10, connect the:  
ƒ CV OUT BNC connector to a composite video acceptor (for  
example, a plasma display)  
ƒ AUDIO OUT S/PDIF (digital audio) RCA connector2 to an audio  
acceptor (for example, the plasma display’s audio connector)  
3. Connect the LINE OUT connector of the TP-9 to the LINE IN connector of  
the TP-10, via UTP cabling (maximum range of up to 300ft (100m)).  
4. On the TP-9 underside, set the VIDEO switch to CV and the AUDIO  
switch to S/PDIF.  
Note: Do not power the device ON when set to S/PDIF. First set the device  
to Analog mode, power on and then switch to S/PDIF if needed.  
5. On each TP-9/TP-10 unit, connect a 12V DC power adapter to the power  
socket and connect the adapter to the mains electricity (see section 3.1).  
6. On the TP-10, if required, adjust the CV EQ. and level, by inserting a  
screwdriver into the small hole and carefully rotating it.  
IR Emitter  
Figure 4: Connecting the IR Emitter  
1 Stick the IR emitter to the IR receiver window (usually located on the front panel of the video player)  
2 You can also connect either the AUDIO OUT ANALOG 3.5mm mini connector to an analog audio acceptor, or both  
AUDIO OUT connectors

Connecting an Audio/Video Distribution System  
Be sure to place the TP-10 in such a way that the IR SENSOR window will be  
in the line-of-sight of your IR remote controller.  
You can now operate the video player via its IR remote controller from a  
distance.
