About the VP-26
The
VP-26
is a high quality one-box presentation matrix switcher, which
includes three independent 4x2 audio/video matrix switchers, one
independent 2x2 audio/video matrix switcher and a master audio switcher.
It combines the functions of a 4x2 matrix switcher for computer graphics
(VGA/UXGA) signals with audio, a 4x2 matrix switcher for composite
video and audio, a 4x2 matrix switcher for s-Video and audio, and a 2x2
matrix switcher for component video (Y, P

) as well as the
master audio switcher that routes one of the pre-selected audio inputs (from
these four switchers) to two separate outputs.
In addition, the
VP-26
features:
•
A VGA/UXGA video bandwidth of 300MHz to ensure transparent
performance even in the most critical applications, and is HDTV
compatible
•
A composite/SDI video bandwidth of 420MHz, an s-Video bandwidth
of 320MHz, a component video bandwidth of 380MHz, and a CAT 5
resolution of up to UXGA
•
37 selector buttons, microphone input level control and master audio
level control
•
Microphone talk-over mode (the microphone input signal lowers the
line audio output level when the connected microphone detects sound)
•
A CAT 5 output, with a transmission range of more than 300 feet (over
100 meters) that transmits the OUT 2 VGA/UXGA video and audio
signals to a remote acceptor via a receiver
•
An internal 5-Watt per channel (24kHz, 3dB), stereo power amplifier
for connecting the speakers directly to the machine
•
A panel LOCK button to prevent tampering with the front panel
•
Previous setup recall via the non-volatile memory after power up
•
Changing the audio output levels via RS-232 commands
