The Extron MTP R AV and MTP R AV RCA are twisted pair receivers that receive active, balanced composite video and audio signals from an Extron MTP transmitter. They accommodate cable runs of 1,000 feet (300 meters) or more, providing superior image quality over a single twisted pair cable. The MTP R AV outputs on female BNC and captive screw connectors, while the MTP R AV RCA outputs on female BNC and female RCA connectors. These receivers include a gain adjustment to compensate for overall signal loss in lengthy cable runs and a sharpness adjustment to provide variable high frequency video equalization to compensate for different cable lengths.

Both the MTP R AV and MTP R AV RCA are configurable for either mono audio, which is the default setting, or stereo audio transmission, depending on the application needs. Remote power capability requires only the transmitter or the receiver to be powered for point to point applications. The compact, 1U, one-eighth rack width design of the MTP AV Series maximizes rack space, enabling up to eight units to fit on a single rack shelf. The one-eighth rack width design can also accommodate various mounting options, such as Extron pole mount brackets, under-desk mounting kit, and the Extron MBB 100, Back of Rack Mounting Kit, providing increased installation flexibility.


The MTP R AV is also available in our PowerCage™ modular board design, which allows for as many as 16 receivers to be populated in the PowerCage 1600 enclosure, reducing installation time and simplifying power management.


The MTP R AV and MTP R AV RCA receivers are compatible with the Extron MTP family of twisted pair transmitters, switchers, matrix switchers, and distribution amplifiers, the most comprehensive line of twisted pair products in the industry. Because of their compact size and their use of light, flexible, and inexpensive twisted pair cable for distribution, MTP AV and MTP SV A Series transmitters and receivers offer considerable advantages in cost, performance, and ease of installation.
