 The Kramer VS-81X is a high quality mechanical 8x1 switcher for mono balanced audio using XLR connectors connectors. It is designed for applications requiring a compact desktop unit for routing of audio signals. High quality switching components provide excellent isolation between inputs. The VS-81X is extremely rugged and dependable. Its unpowered, passive design can be an advantage in applications where various regulatory compliance would otherwise be required. The “hard-wired” signal path can also switch other signal formats. Spec Sheet |  The Kramer VS-21 is a versatile 2x1 high resolution mechanical switcher that can be used for many different types of signals. The machine switches three identical channels simultaneously, so it may be used for composite video with 2 audio channels; for three independent composite video channels; for one composite and one Y/C channel; for component video (YUV or RGB), SDI, HDTV or for any other combination. The VS-21 uses an “RF” PCB design with three ultra high bandwidth channels, providing bandwidth exceeding 980MHz, and is therefore suitable for use with almost any common signal.It is housed in a desktop enclosure and can be used in “reverse” as well - functioning as a 1x2 switcher (toggling one source between two acceptors). It provides a simple solution for many switching needs and as the design is passive, it does not need power, thus increasing its versatility. Spec Sheet |  The Kramer VS-41AV is a high quality mechanical 4x1 switcher for composite video and audio stereo signals. It is designed for applications requiring an unpowered desktop unit for routing video and audio stereo signals. Audio is always switched together with the corresponding video signal, and unselected video inputs terminate into a 75Ω resistor. High quality switching components provide excellent isolation between inputs. The machine can be 19-inch rack mounted using a special, optional rack adapter. The VS-41AV is extremely rugged and dependable. Its unpowered, passive design can be an advantage in applications where various regulatory compliances would otherwise be required. The “hard-wired” signal path offers excellent bandwidth, and can switch other signal formats. Spec Sheet |  The Kramer VP-41 is a high performance mechanical 4x1 switcher for VGA/XGA signals. It is designed to route one of up to four inputs to one output using 15pin HD female connectors. Bandwidth of 750MHz ensures transparent performance even at the highest resolution UXGA modes (1600 x 1200.) High quality switching components provide excellent isolation between inputs. The VP-41 is extremely rugged and dependable. Its unpowered, passive design is an advantage in applications where various regulatory compliances would otherwise be required. The passive “hard-wire” signal path offers very high bandwidth and can also switch other signal formats. It is housed in a desktop enclosure and one unit can be rack mounted in a 1U rack space with the optional RK-81X adapter. Spec sheet |  The Kramer VP-61xl is a 6x1 switcher for VGA/XGA and balanced stereo audio signals. It is designed to route one of up to six inputs to one output using 15pin HD female connectors for the VGA/XGA signals, and detachable terminal block connectors for audio. Bandwidth exceeding 400MHz ensures transparent VGA/XGA performance. The inputs and output are directly coupled, and conform to the highest standards. The VP-61xl can be controlled by front panel switches, or remotely by RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, personal computer, or other serial control device. It is housed in a rugged, professional rack mountable enclosure. The VP-61N is the VP-61xl, but without audio. Spec Sheet |  The Kramer VP-4x4 is a 4x4-matrix switcher for VGA/XGA signals and balanced audio stereo signals. It routes four sources to four acceptors simultaneously (true matrix operation). The audio signals reside on detachable terminal block connectors for easy connection and operation. Bandwidth exceeding 440MHz ensures transparent VGA/XGA performance. The inputs and output are directly coupled, and conform to the highest standards. The machine has all Kramer’s advanced options – audio follow video or breakaway, storing and recalling setups, a “take” function for precise switch control and panel “lock” button for elimination of occasional, unintended errors. This matrix switcher is controlled by front panel switches, or remotely by RS-485 or RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, personal computer, or other serial control device. The machine is housed in a rugged, professional rack mountable enclosure. Get spec |  The Kramer VS-5x5 is a true 5x5 composite video/audio matrix switcher for composite video signals and balanced stereo audio signals. The high quality VS-5x5 lets you simultaneously route any or all of the 5 inputs to any or all of the 5 outputs. It features video bandwidth of 70MHz to ensure transparent video performance; and has easy-to-connect, detachable terminal block connectors for the audio signals. Inputs and outputs are DC coupled. The VS-5x5 produces glitch-free transitions when sources share a common reference sync, as switching occurs during the vertical interval. Spec Sheet |  The Kramer VS-808xl and VS-804xl are high performance, 8x8 and 8x4 vertical interval matrix switchers for composite video and stereo audio signals. They are true matrices, allowing the user to route any input to any or all outputs simultaneously. Since the machines switch during the vertical interval, transitions are glitch-free when sources share a common reference sync. There are many updated features on these popular designs including audio breakaway, which provides the ability to switch audio independently from video. Eight preset memory locations are provided for quick access to common configurations Also, the TAKE button allows the user to place multiple switches in a queue, and then activate them with one touch of this button or a single serial command. Kramer’s K-Router control software is included for applications where a Windows® - based PC is used to control the VS-808xl and the VS-804xl. There are a total of three ways to control the machines: front-panel buttons, RS-232, and RS-485. They are dependable, rugged, and fit in two vertical spaces of a standard 19” rack. Video bandwidth of 200MHz ensures that the machines remain transparent even in the most critical applications. Spec Sheet |
