This section describes the TP-123 XGA / Audio / Data Line Transmitter (see
section 7.1), and the TP-124 XGA / Audio / Data Line Receiver (see section 7.2).
7.1 Your TP-123 XGA / Audio / Data Line Transmitter
The TP-123 is a high performance transmitter that accepts a computer
graphics input signal, an unbalanced stereo analog audio signal, unidirectional
(RxD) RS 232 control commands and 12V DC power, over CAT5 cable, and
transmits to a TP-124 receiver. The stereo analog audio signal is converted to
the digital audio (S/PDIF) stream before transmitting, thus preserving the
quality of the audio source signals.
The TP-123 / TP-124 pair has a transmission range of more than 300 ft.
(more than 100 meters) over UTP cabling. In addition, the TP-123:
 Has video bandwidth that exceeds 350MHz

7.2 Your TP-124 XGA / Audio / Data Line Receiver
The TP-124 is a high performance receiver obtaining the computer graphics
signal/audio/control data from the Kramer TP-123 via UTP cabling at its
CAT5 Line input. The TP-124 outputs a computer graphics signal, an
unbalanced stereo analog audio signal, a converted digital audio (S/PDIF)
signal and RS-232 control commands. The unidirectional (TxD) RS-232
interface makes it possible to control virtually any devices over a
transmission range of more than 300 ft. (more than 100 meters) over UTP
cabling. The TP-124 can power or be powered by the TP-123 transmitter
over the same CAT5 cable.
In addition, the TP-124 features:
 Level and EQ. control for the XGA signals
 The capability to change the polarity of decoding H and V Sync
 24 bit 48kHz S/PDIF digital audio that supplies the highest quality audio
