DTP HD DA 4K Series Description
These Extron distribution amplifiers distribute one HDMIinput signal to four (DTP HD DA4 4K
230 and DTP HD DA4 4K 330 models) or eight (DTP HD DA8 4K 230 and DTP HD DA8 4K 330
models) simultaneous outputs over shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. The 230 models distribute
one HDMI input signal up to 230 feet (70 meters) and the 330 models distribute one HDMI input
signal up to 330 feet (100 meters). All models are fully High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) compliant.
These distribution amplifiers support data rates up to 10.2 Gbps (3.4 Gbps per color) with up to
12-bit deep color and use the EDID Minder feature for EDID management.
The automatic output compatibility correction feature scans each output device to ensure that
the output signal is compatible with the color depth and format requirements of the device. Each
output is adjusted independently.
Features
• Distributes HDMI plus control and analog audio up to 230 feet (70 meters) or
330 feet (100 meters) over STP cable (depending on the model)
• Inputs: One HDMI with buffered input loop-through, one 3.5 mm stereo mini
jack for audio with loop-through
• Outputs: Four (DTP HD DA4 4K models) or eight (DTP HD DA8 4K models) DTP
twisted pair outputs on RJ-45
• Supports computer video up to 2560x1600, HDTV 1080p/60 Deep Color, and 4K
resolutions
• DTP outputs are compatible with HDBaseT-enabled devices — Each DTP output
can be configured to send video and embedded audio, plus bidirectional RS-232 and IR
signals to an HDBaseT-enabled device.
• HDMI input loop-through — The DTP HD DA 4K series features an active local HDMI
output for local monitor support or system expansion.
• Audio input with loop-through accepts additional analog stereo audio signals
— The DTP HD DA 4K series accepts stereo analog audio signals for simultaneous
transmission over the same shielded twisted pair cable, and it includes a loop-through
for local audio system and monitoring needs. Analog audio is not embedded onto the
digital video signal, nor is digital audio de-embedded from the digital video signal.

Extron DTP HD DA 4K Series • Introduction 2
• Supports multiple embedded audio formats — The DTP HD DA 4K series is
compatible with a broad range of multi-channel audio signals, providing reliable
operation with HDMI sources.
• Remote powering of DTP receivers — The DTP HD DA 4K series can provide power
to four or eight DTP receivers over the twisted pair connections, eliminating the need for
separate power supplies at the remote units.
• RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet control port — System level AV device control
to all remote locations via the Ethernet port on the distribution amplifier, providing
control of the attached devices without needing additional equipment.
• Bidirectional RS-232 and IR pass-through for AV device control — Bidirectional
RS-232 control and IR signals can be transmitted alongside the video signal, allowing
remote AV devices to be controlled without the need for additional cabling.
• HDCP compliant
• Supported HDMI specification features include data rates up to 10.2 Gbps,
Deep Color up to 12-bit, 3D, and HD lossless audio formats
• Key Minder continuously verifies HDCP compliance — Key Minder authenticates
and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and output devices to
enable simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to two or more displays.
• EDID Minder automatically manages EDID communication between connected
devices — EDID Minder ensures that the source powers up properly and reliably
outputs content for display.
• Supports EDID and HDCP transmission — DDC channels are actively buffered,
allowing continuous communication between source and display.
• HDCP authentication and signal presence confirmation — Provides real-time
verification of HDCP status for each digital video input and output.
• HDCP Visual Confirmation provides a green signal when encrypted content
is sent to a non-compliant display — A full-screen green signal is sent when
HDCP-encrypted content is transmitted to a non-HDCP compliant display, providing
immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on the display.
• HDMI to DVI Interface Format Correction — Automatically enables or disables
embedded audio and InfoFrames, and sets the correct color space for proper
connection to HDMI and DVI displays.
• RS-232 control port — Enables the use of serial commands for integration into
a control system. Extron products use the SIS - Simple Instruction Set command
protocol, a set of basic ASCII commands that allow for quick and easy programming.
• RJ-45 signal and link LED indicators for DTP ports — Provides a means for
validating signal flow and operation.
• Compatible with all DTP 230 and DTP 330 Series receivers and DTP-enabled
products — Enables mixing and matching with desktop and wallplate receivers, as well
as other DTP-enabled products to meet application requirements.

amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable Earthing — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply a connection other than a
direct connection to a branch circuit, such as by using a power strip.

Supported Cables
The distribution amplifiers are compatible with shielded twisted pair cable (F/UTP, SF/UTP,
and S/FTP).
ATTENTION:
• Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201
cable to link the device with DTP transmitters or receivers.
• N’utilisez pas le câble AV Skew-FreeUTP version améliorée UTP23SF d’Extron
ou le câble STP201 pour relier le appareil avec les émetteurs ou les récepteurs
DTP.
Cable Recommendations
Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances and
reduce transmission errors.
• Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and connectors for the best
performance:
• XTP DTP 24/1000 Non-Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool 22-236-03
• XTP DTP 24P/1000 Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool 22-235-03
• XTP DTP 24 Plug Package of 10 101-005-02
• If not using XTP DTP 24 cable, at a minimum, Extron recommends 24 AWG, solid
conductor, STP cable with a minimum bandwidth of 400 MHz.
• Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA-T568B standard.
• Limit the use of more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points,
punch down connectors, couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points
are required, use shielded couplers and punch down connectors.
NOTE: When using shielded twisted pair cable in bundles or conduits, consider the
following:
• Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.
• Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are straightened,
aligned, and secured in tight bundles.
• Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or hook-and-loop fasteners.
• Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.

Wiring for RS-232 Control
RS-232 communication between the distribution amplifier and a host PC can be used to update
firmware or configure the unit using SIS commands (see Command and Response Table for
SIS Commands on page 16).
The computer connects to either the rear panel 3-pole RS-232 port (Kon page 8) or the front
panel USB port (see Figure 4 Bon page 6) of the distribution amplifier.
NOTES:
• Neither port has precedence and commands from either port are handled in the
order they are received.
• Extron recommends that the USB port is used for temporary connections. If a
permanent connection is required, the RS-232 port should be used.
1. Connect an RS-232 cable to the computer, using a female 9-pin D connector (see figure 4):
zData received by the computer = pin 2
zData transmitted by the computer = pin 3
zGround = pin 5
2. Wire the opposite end of the cable to the provided 3-pole captive screw plug (see figure9):
zData transmitted by the DA plugs into the Tx (transmit) port
zData received by the DA plugs into the Rx (receive) port
zGround plugs into the G (ground) port
NOTES:
• The wiring in the RS-232 cables crosses over so that the Tx on the distribution
amplifier connects to the Rx of the control device and vice versa. Ground always
connects to ground.
• If the cable has a drain wire, tie the drain wire to the ground at both ends.

SIS Commands
This section provides information about the SIS commands that are used to configure the
DTP HDDA 4K series. The following topics are discussed:
zIntroduction to SIS
zSymbols Used in this Guide
zDTP HD DA4 Series EDID Memory Locations
zCommand and Response Table for SIS Commands
Introduction to SIS
The distribution amplifiers can be set up and controlled remotely via Extron SIS commands that
are issued from a host computer running the Extron DataViewer utility or other control system.
The host device can be connected to the RJ-45 LAN connector on the rear panel, the 3-pole
captive screw connector on the rear panel, or to the mini USB config port on the front panel.
The serial protocol is 9600 baud, 8 data bit, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
NOTE: The wiring in the RS-232 cables crosses over so that the distribution amplifier
transmit (Tx) wire connects with the control device receive (Rx) and vice versa.
Host-to-Distribution Amplifier Communications
SIS commands consist of strings (one or more characters per command field). No special
characters are required to begin or end a command sequence. Unless otherwise stated, upper
and lower case characters can be used interchangeably. Most responses from the distribution
amplifier end with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ]), which signal the end of the
response character string. When the switcher determines that a command is valid, it executes
the command and sends a response to the host device.
Distribution Amplifier-Initiated Messages
When a local event such as a change in signal status takes place, the distribution amplifier
responds by sending a message to the host, indicating the status change. No response is
required from the host.
