Overview

KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

3 Overview

The Kramer VS-606xl, VS-804xl and VS-808xl are high performance matrix

switchers for composite video and unbalanced stereo audio signals (via RCA

connectors). The Kramer VS-646 and VS-848 are high performance matrix

switchers for composite video and balanced stereo audio signals (via terminal

block connectors). Switching during the vertical interval ensures glitch-free

switching with genlocked sources.

The matrix switchers feature:

A bandwidth of 200MHz that ensures transparency even in the

most critical applications

A TAKE button, which allows you to place multiple switches in a

queue and then activate them simultaneously with one touch of

this button

Memory locations, letting you store multiple switches as presets

(salvos) to be recalled and executed when needed

Audio-follow-video or audio breakaway option (to switch audio

independently from video)

Vertical interval switching

An external Sync/Genlock input that may be programmed to

switch according to the timing of either this input or of source

number 1

Selectable sync signal termination

The matrix switcher is dependable, rugged and fits into two vertical spaces

(2U) of a standard 19" rack. To achieve the best performance:

Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding

interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching,

and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality

cables)

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and

position your Kramer matrix switcher away from moisture,

excessive sunlight and dust
