Optional Accessories
The following accessories, which are available from Kramer, can enhance implementation of your
machine. For information regarding cables and additional accessories, contact your Kramer dealer.
BNC "Y" Connector -
Used for looping purposes and splits the incoming signal to enable
connection of an additional machine.
VS-3000 Remote Control Panel -
Used for remote control of Kramer switchers. Many matrix
switchers (not necessarily of the same type!) may be connected to the
VS-3000
for control and
monitoring purposes. The
VS-3000
is fed from a 12VDC supply, and the 2U unit has a low physical
profile, making it ideal for installation on a bench top, or in a standard 19” rack. The machine may
be used together with other remote controllers, such as a PC, more VS-3000’s, and other
