KRAMER:  SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY

 

Overview 

 

 

 

In particular, the 

VM-114H

 

Has a maximum data rate of 2.25Gbps bandwidth per graphic channel 
(HDMI), 1.65Gbps bandwidth per graphic channel (DGKat) 

 

Can read and store, in non-volatile memory, the default EDID, or the EDID

1

 

block from one or a mix

2

 

Features I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™ – Intelligent 
EDID handling & processing algorithm ensures Plug and Play operation for 
HDMI systems  

 of the output display devices, so it can then provide 

the EDID information to the source even if the display device is not connected 

 

Supports 3D Pass-through, Deep Color

3

 

Is HDCP compliant 

, x.v.Color™ and uncompressed audio 

channels (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD) 

 

Features LEDs indicating the selected input and active output 

 

Supports IR remote control  

 

Is 12V DC fed and is housed in a Kramer desktop enclosure  

The 

VM-114H

 supports a range of: 

 

Up to 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to 30m (98ft) at 1080p on shielded 

BC-DGKat524

 cable 

 

Up to 90m (295ft) at 1080i, or up to 70m (230ft) at 1080p on shielded 

BC-DGKat623

 cable  

 

Up to 100m (330ft) at 1080i or up to 90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded 

BC-DGKat7a23

 cable  

You can daisy-chain up to six devices with the maximum overall distance between 
the first and last devices being cumulative and limited by the cable type used.  

3.1 

Using Shielded 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), and the Kramer 

BC-DGKat7a23

 (CAT 

7a 23 AWG) cables. These specially built cables significantly outperform regular 
CAT 5/CAT 6 /CAT 7a cables. 

 

 

 

                                                       

 

1 EDID is Extended Display Identification Data (see 

Section  3 3

 for a more detailed definition) 

2 The EDID acquired is a weighted average of all the connected outputs  For example, if several displays with different resolutions are 

connected to the outputs, the acquired EDID supports all the resolutions, as well as other parameters included in the EDID 

3 On the HDMI input
