3 Overview
The
VS-81DVI-R
is a technologically advanced, high quality 8x1 switcher for
DVI-D signals supporting the DDWG DVI 1.0 standard.
With a bandwidth of 1.65GHz, the
VS-81DVI-R
can switch signals having
resolutions up to UXGA, including all HDTV formats. Since high-resolution DVI
signals are very sensitive to cable quality and to PCB layout, the
VS-81DVI-R
uses a carefully designed PCB, which includes all buffering, conditioning and
amplifying circuitry to provide a reclocked top-notch output signal.
In addition the
VS-81DVI-R
:
Includes DVI-I connectors to make it compatible with all types of DVI cables
Features 8 input selector buttons, which automatically light up when the unit
detects an active signal on those inputs.
Includes a built-in reclocking block that regenerates the DVI signal, so
that several units may be cascaded
Automatically reads and stores, in non-volatile memory, the EDID

Does not support HDCP (High Definition Digital Content Protection)
Includes a MUTE button to disconnect the output and a PANEL LOCK
button to prevent unwanted tampering with the buttons on the front panel
Fits in one vertical space of a standard 19” professional rack enclosure
Control the
VS-81DVI-R
using the front panel buttons, or remotely via:
RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC, or
other serial controller
The Kramer infra-red remote control transmitter
The ETHERNET
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise
levels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer
VS-81DVI-R
away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
