The Extron XTP R HWP 201 4K is a wallplate receiver for extending video, audio, bidirectional control, and Ethernet over a shielded CATx cable. This HDCP 2.3-compliant receiver supports video signals at resolutions up to 4K. For streamlined integration, the HDMI output connector is oriented upward at a 90° angle to minimize stress on the cable and allow for a low‑profile flat panel display installation. Ethernet extension and insertion of bidirectional RS‑232 and IR provide LAN access and AV device control at remote locations. Signals can be delivered up to 330 feet (100 meters) over shielded twisted pair cable. The XTP R HWP 201 4K supports remote power and is ideal for XTP Systems® that require long-distance transmission to wall-mounted displays and other output devices.
The XTP R HWP 201 4K is ideal for applications that require an AV and control connection point for a wall-mounted display that is reliable, discreet, and easy to integrate. A convenient cable tie-down point ensures a secure and reliable HDMI connection.
The XTP wallplate receiver enables the reliable, long distance distribution of HDMI signals at resolutions up to 4K, and supports HDMI 1.4 specifications that include data rates up to 10.2 Gbps, Deep Color up to 12‑bit, 3D, and HD lossless audio formats. To ensure device compatibility and optimal signal transmission between devices, DDC channels are actively buffered, maintaining continuous EDID and HDCP communication with the source and display.
Built for Professional Integration
To enhance and simplify integration of digital and analog AV devices, XTP endpoints utilize two Extron technologies: EDID Minder and Key Minder. EDID Minder automatically manages EDID communication between input sources and display devices, to ensure that sources power up properly and reliably send content for display. For HDMI and DisplayPort signals with protected content, Key Minder authenticates and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and output devices to ensure quick and reliable switching. If HDCP-encrypted content is sent to a non‑compliant display, a full-screen green signal is transmitted to the destination, providing immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on the selected display.
In addition to high performance video, the XTP R HWP 201 4K accepts audio signals over the same cable. It provides signal distribution for HDMI embedded audio or audio de-embedding with two-channel balanced/unbalanced analog stereo. To precisely control audio, the wallplate receiver includes analog audio volume adjustment and muting.
The XTP R HWP 201 4K receiver's RS-232 and IR pass-through port enables bidirectional RS-232 and IR signals to be sent to the display, without the need for additional cabling. This simplifies integration with a control system for managing the display. Additionally, centralized 10/100 Ethernet communication can be implemented via an Ethernet extension port to reduce the number of independent network drops required within a system.
To further simplify system design, the receiver can be powered by the XTP matrix switcher over the same twisted pair cable that transmits the AV and control signals. This capability streamlines integration of remote endpoints by eliminating the need to provide AC power to the device. The remote powering capabilities and unique form factor of the XTP R HWP 201 4K allow for discreet placement behind a flat panel display or in a floor box.
Extron recommends Extron-certified XTP DTP 24 shielded twisted pair cable, shielded RJ-45 plugs, jacks, and couplers engineered for optimum signal transmission with Extron XTP Systems. This cable is certified to 475 MHz, and utilizes a SF/UTP design with four unshielded 24 AWG twisted pair conductors inside an overall braid and foil shield for superior performance and noise immunity.
Extron XTP Systems
Extron XTP Systems provide a completely integrated switching and distribution solution for multiple digital and analog formats. They support local connectivity as well as extended transmission capability for sending high resolution video, audio, RS‑232, and Ethernet up to 330 feet (100 meters) over a shielded CATx cable and up to 10 km (6.21 miles) over fiber optic cable. Each system is HDCP compliant and delivers ultra-fast, highly reliable digital switching with Extron's SpeedSwitch® Technology.
At the heart of a system is an XTP CrossPoint matrix switcher. The modular matrix switchers are expandable from 4x4 to 64x64, depending on frame size, and can be populated with a wide variety of XTP I/O matrix boards. Input and output boards provide direct HDMI, SDI, DVI, VGA, video, and audio connections to local sources and displays, and signal extension to remote endpoints when using XTP transmitters and receivers. The matrix switcher can also provide power to a remote XTP device over CATx cabling, depending on transmitter model.
The online XTP System Builder gives convenient access for complete system design. The tool also features a printable bill of materials, pricing, and quote submittal. Once the order is confirmed and received, the included XTP System Configuration Software enables easy setup and configuration right out of the box.
To configure, operate, and monitor the system in real time, user-friendly control software offers a complete view of all XTP devices from a computer. With hot‑swappable modular components, a wide selection of XTP transmitters and receivers, and advanced 24/7 system monitoring, XTP Systems are designed to provide continuous, trouble-free operation in the most critical applications.
