TP-578H - Getting Started

2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

Review the contents of this user manual

Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp

to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if

firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

Position your Kramer TP-578H DGKat to HDMI Receiver away from

moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may be connected

only to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

2.2 Safety Instructions

Caution:

No operator serviceable parts inside the unit

Warning:

Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall

adapter that is provided with the unit.

Warning:

Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall

before installing

2.3 Recycling Kramer Products

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC

aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by

requiring it to be collected and recycled. To comply with the WEEE Directive,

Kramer Electronics has made arrangements with the European Advanced

Recycling Network (EARN) and will cover any costs of treatment, recycling and

recovery of waste Kramer Electronics branded equipment on arrival at the EARN

facility. For details of Kramer’s recycling arrangements in your particular country

go to our recycling pages at http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/recycling/.

TP-578H - Overview

3 Overview

The high quality TP-578H DGKat to HDMI Receiver accepts a DGKat TP (Twisted

Pair) signal from a compatible Kramer DGKat transmitter and decodes it into the

following signals:

HDMI

IR

S/PDIF digital audio

Balanced and unbalanced audio

RS-232

The device is designed to be used in conjunction with any Kramer DGKat switcher

or transmitter, (for example, the VS-62D or the TP-577X1).

The TP-578H features:

HDCP support

HDTV compatibility

A system range of up to 70m (230ft) at 1080p and 1600 x 1200 on shielded

BC-DGKat623 cable (see Section 3.1)

I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™ – Intelligent EDID

handling & processing algorithm ensures Plug and Play operation for HDMI

systems

HPD—Hot Plug Detect signals from the display device to the source

Equalization and reclocking of the data

K-LINK compatibility

Up to 4.95Gbps data rate (1.65Gbps per graphics channel)

PowerConnectPlus—A single connection to the transmitter or the receiver

powers both units. The higher voltage PowerConnectPlus also powers

regular PowerConnect devices via auto-negotiation

TP-578H - Overview

A DigiTOOLS®sized enclosure. Three devices can be mounted in a 1U rack

space using the optional RK-3T adapter

Lockable EDID

The TP-578H supports a range of:

Up to 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to 30m (98ft) at 1080p on shielded

BC-DGKat524 cable

Up to 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to 70m (230ft) at 1080p on shielded

BC-DGKat623 cable

Up to 100m (330ft) at 1080i or up to 90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded

BC-DGKat7a23 cable

Note: The transmission range depends on the signal resolution, the graphics card

and the display used. The distance using non-Kramer CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables

may not reach these ranges.

3.1 Using TP cables

Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our

digital twisted pair products; the Kramer BC-DGKat524 (CAT 5 24 AWG), the

Kramer BC-DGKat623 (CAT 6 23 AWG), and the Kramer BC-DGKat7a23 (CAT

7a 23 AWG) cables. These specially built cables significantly outperform regular

CAT 5/CAT 6/CAT 7a cables.

Note: The TP-578H cannot work with unshielded cables.

3.2 About the Power Connect™ Feature

The Power Connect™ feature here means that only one unit in a system, the

transmitter or receiver, needs to be connected to a power source when the

devices are within 60m (197ft) of each other. The Power Connect™ feature

applies as long as the cable can carry power and the distance does not exceed

60m on standard TP cable. (Heavier gauge cable may be used to extend the

Power Connect™ range).

Warning:

Using a TP cable that is incorrectly wired may cause

permanent damage to the device
