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 VP-425 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and

dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be
