Lightware MX-TPS2-OB-AP
TPS Output Board with PoE Option
MX-TPS2-OB-AP is a dual twisted pair TPS (HDBaseT) output board for MX series modular matrix switchers. It transmits uncompressed video, audio, Ethernet, and control signals over long distances via CAT cable, making it ideal for professional AV applications in corporate, education, and live environments.
Description
MX‑TPS2‑OB‑P the 8 channel twisted pair output board provides HDMI 1.4, audio, Ethernet and RS‑232 transmission on a single CAT5/6/7 cable up to 100m in HDBaseTTM and 170m distance in Long reach mode (maximal resolution is Full HD 1080p in Long reach mode). Resolutions up to 4K and 48‑bit colour depth are handled with all standard audio formats as well as 120Hz 3D signals.
The board offers bi‑directional RS‑232 and Ethernet transmission (each board has a 10/100 uplink connector for the Ethernet network connection) and remote powering option for the TPS extenders available with the PoE add‑on. The built-in PoE injector function requires the supplied PSU-48vp external power source to be connected directly to the board. The output board is available with audio add‑ons: digital S/PDIF or analog stereo connectors are available for advanced audio functions (HDMI embedded audio signals are managed by the board).
The MX‑TPS2‑OB‑P without the digital or analog audio option also handles HDMI embedded audio. The board is compatible with deep colour, Dolby TrueHD and DTS‑HD audio and features PCM audio sample rate conversion. Advanced professional functions such as HDCP enable/disable mode, Pixel Accurate Reclocking, Advanced EDID Management and Frame Detector are integrated providing professional set-up and operation.
