Getting Started

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VM-50AN is a high-performance distribution amplifier for

balanced and unbalanced stereo audio signals. It takes one balanced or

unbalanced stereo input and distributes the signal simultaneously to 10 stereo

outputs (five balanced and five unbalanced).

In addition, the VM-50AN:

Includes a balanced/unbalanced input selection button

Features left and right level (gain) controls

Operates as a stand-alone distributor, or as a companion to other Kramer

“50” series products like the VM-50V video DA, or the VM-50YC

s-Video DA

The VM-50AN is housed in a desktop sized enclosure. Two units can be rack

mounted side-by-side with the optional RK-1 adapter in a 1U rack space.

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 VM-50AN away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power

wall adapter that is provided with this unit

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall

before installing or removing device or servicing unit.
