VP-553xl - Overview
Control your
VP-553xl
:
•
Directly, via the front panel push buttons
•
By RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC, or
other serial controller
•
Remotely, from the infrared remote control transmitter with OSD (on−screen
display)
•
Via the Ethernet with built-in Web pages
The
VP-553xl
is housed in a 19” 2U rack mountable enclosure, with rack “ears”
included, and is fed from a 100-240 VAC universal switching power supply.
3.1
Using the USB Switcher
The
VP-553xl
incorporates a simple, yet effective, 4:1 USB 1.1 switcher. The
switcher can be used, for example, to connect one out of several PCs to a smart
board or other USB client.
The USB switcher can be routed as a separate layer, or can be tied to the video
switching layer of the unit. This creates a powerful “USB follows video” system – the
PC routed to the display also connects to the smart board. In many meeting room
setups these USB switching schemes are highly effective.
3.2
Using Twisted Pair Cable for HDBT
Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our
digital twisted pair products;
BC−UNIKat
(CAT 6 23 AWG cable) significantly
outperforms regular CAT 5 / CAT 6 cables.
We strongly recommend that you use shielded twisted pair cable.
