Overview
The Kramer
VS-3232DN
is a high performance matrix switcher chassis for AV
signals. The unit is modular and populated from 4 x 4 to 32 x 32 ports in increments
of four inputs and/or four outputs. The unit supports various signals, depending on
the type of cards installed and includes a power supply, control module and a test
module that can monitor and test any video input and output in the matrix. It
features a very high bandwidth of up to 3.4Gbps (for the chassis only, effective
bandwidth of the system depends on the input / output cards, see
Section 10
) that
ensures transparent performance even in the most critical applications. The cards
re-clock and equalize the signals and the chassis can route any or all inputs to any
or all outputs simultaneously.
The
VS-3232DN
is highly configurable–you can add or remove inputs and outputs
independently in groups of four and mix different types of input/output cards in the
same chassis. For example, you can configure a device as a 4 x 24 or a 32 x 8
matrix switcher to exactly suit your needs.
The
VS-3232DN
features:
•
Full 32 x 32 non-blocking matrix array to switch any of the 32 input digital
signals to any or all outputs (see
Section 5
•
Easy access to 59 pre-set memory locations for quick access to user-defined
setups
•
Fast switching on outputs to reduce or remove switching delay
•
Redundant, hot swappable power supply (optional)
•
A 40 character by 2 line LCD that shows the operational status or the
configuration menu
•
A lock function to prevent tampering with the front panel
•
A default EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for each input
•
Non-volatile EDID storage
•
Kramer Core™ – flexible infrastructure conversion. Copper, fiber or Twisted
Pair, all can be used at the same time according to input/output module
selection. The matrix receives signals from compatible Kramer transmitters,
