VM-8HN - Overview 

 

Overview 

The 

VM-8HN

 is a high-quality 1:8 HDMI distributor with 2 looping HDMI outputs 

that takes one HDMI input, equalizes and reclocks the signal and distributes it to 

eight identical outputs and two loops. The 

VM-8HN

 distributes signals having 

resolutions up to 4Kx2K 30Hz and including WUXGA and 1080p.   

In particular, the 

VM-8HN

 features: 

 

A maximum data rate of 10.2Gbps (3.4Gbps per graphic channel) 

 

HDMI support for Deep Color, x.v.Color™, Lip Sync, HDMI Uncompressed 

Audio Channels, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, CEC (CEC pass through from 

input to output 1 only) 

 

HDCP compliance 

 

Video wall support that mutes the video on all displays and simultaneously 

unmutes them when all inputs are ready; with selectable output delay. 

 

Automatic 5V turn off - When no active input signal is detected, the unit turns 

off 5V on the output allowing attached devices to power off. 

 

MAC Setting enables and disables HDCP support on the input allowing the 

source to transmit a non−HDCP signal if required. 

 

Force RGB modifies the EDID saved on the input to support RGB format 

(that is, not YUV format). 

 

Kramer Equalization & re-

Klocking™ Technology that rebuilds the digital 

signal integrity to travel longer distances 

 

I-

EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™, an intelligent EDID 

handling and processing algorithm that ensures Plug and Play operation for 

HDMI systems 

 

A default EDID for fast and efficient connection of the unit 

The default EDID feature lets you connect the VM-8HN without having to connect a 
display to the output
