3 Overview
The Kramer
VS-1616V
is a high performance 16x16 vertical interval matrix
switcher for composite video signals on BNC connectors. In addition to its
typical 16x16 operation, the
VS-1616V
can be configured as follows:
8x8 for s-Video (Y/C)
5x5 for YUV or RGB (with the sync on the Green signal - RGsB)
4x4 for RGBS signals
A main advantage of the
VS-1616V
is that it forms part of the series of 16x16
matrix switchers that includes, but is not limited to,
VS-1616A
(a 16x16
analog balanced stereo audio matrix switcher),
VS-1616VD
(a 16x16 digital
video matrix switcher),
VS-1616AD
(a 16x16 digital audio matrix switcher),
and
