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 PT-571HDCP and PT-572HDCP+ transmitter/receiver  
pair away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust  
This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be  
connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

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  
2.4  
Accessory to Medical Equipment (IEC 60601-1-2)  
In the modern medical environment remote access is essential, for example, to  
transfer clinical data between doctors and to train to medical students. The  
PT-571HDCP/PT-572HDCP+ pair is certified according to the IEC 60601-1-2,  
Clause 2.1.3, Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements for  
EMC standard which is required when accessory devices are used at locations  
where medical personnel and patients are present.  
The PT-571HDCP/PT-572HDCP+ pair constitutes an optional component that can  
be considered necessary and suitable as part of medical equipment or for use as  
part of a medical system to provide real time simultaneous video feeds to those  
present at the local medical environment and at remote locations. In this  
environment, the PT-571HDCP/PT-572HDCP+ can be added to the system ONLY  
if the connecting equipment has been evaluated and meets the IEC 60601-1-2  
EMC standards. Note, that when attaching accessory devices to a digital or  
analog interface, they must comply with the IEC standard for which they are used:  
EMC Standard (IEC 60601-1-2), Information Technology equipment (IEC 60950-1  
(2ed)).

Overview  
The PT-571HDCP is a DGKat™ twisted pair transmitter for DVI signals. The  
PT-571HDCP converts a DVI signal to a single twisted pair signal and the  
PT-572HDCP+ converts the twisted pair signal back to a DVI signal.  
The DVI Line Transmitter/Receiver system features:  
Maximum data rate/bandwidth up to 4.95Gbps (1.65Gbps per graphic  
channel), WUXGA, 1920x1080p  
HDTV compatibility and HDCP compliance  
Medical equipment compliance  
EDID PassThru that passes EDID signals between the source and display  
3D pass-through  
Up to 90m (295ft) at SXGA, or up to 30m (98ft) at UXGA on shielded  
BC−DGKat524 cable. Up to 90m (295ft) at SXGA, or up to 70m (230ft) at  
UXGA on shielded BC−DGKat623 cable. Up to 100m (330ft) at SXGA, or up  
to 80m (265ft) at UXGA on shielded BC−DGKat7a23 cable  
Note that the transmission range depends on the signal resolution, graphics card and  
display used. The distance using non-Kramer CAT 5, CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables may  
not reach these ranges  
DGKat™ Signal Integration – Kramer’s unique technology for converting  
TMDS as well as control and communication to signals that run over twisted  
pair cables  
Power Connect™ that feeds 12V DC over the CAT 5 cable from transmitter  
to receiver (see Section 3.2)  
Ultra-Compact Pico TOOLS™ – 4 units can be rack mounted side−by−side  
in a 1U rack space with the optional RK−4PT rack adapter.  
Use only shielded cable where both ends of the shield are soldered  
to ground to eliminate ESD interface.

Using Twisted Pair Cable  
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 cable), and the Kramer: BC-DGKat7a23  
(CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built cables significantly outperform  
regular CAT 5/CAT 6/CAT 7a cables.  
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 90m (270ft) of each other. The Power Connect™ feature  
applies as long as the cable can carry power and the distance does not exceed  
90m on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances, heavy gauge cable should be  
used (CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for  
feeding the power at these distances).

Connecting the Transmitter Receiver Pair  
Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your  
Transmitter and Receiver pair. After connecting your Transmitter and  
!
Receiver pair, connect the power and then switch on the power to  
each device.  
You can use the PT-571HDCP DVI Line Transmitter with the PT-572HDCP+ DVI  
Line Receiver to configure a DVI transmitter/receiver system.  
To connect the PT-571HDCP to the PT-572HDCP+, as illustrated in the example  
in Figure 3, do the following:  
1. Connect the CAT 5 OUT RJ-45 connector on the PT-571HDCP to the CAT 5  
IN RJ-45 connector on the PT-572HDCP+ via a CAT 5 cable (see  
Section 6.1).  
2. On the PT-571HDCP, connect a DVI source (for example, a computer  
graphics source) to the DVI IN connector.  
3. On the PT-572HDCP+, connect the DVI OUT connector to a DVI acceptor  
(for example, a display).  
4. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket on the  
PT-571HDCP and/or the PT-572HDCP+ and connect the adapter to the  
mains electricity (not shown in Figure 3).
