2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

Review the contents of this user manual

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

Position your Kramer products away from moisture, excessive sunlight and

dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

VP-200K, VP-300K, VP-400K - Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer TOOLS VP-200K, VP-300K and VP-400K are 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4

(respectively) distribution amplifiers for UXGA and higher resolution signals.

The VP-200K, VP-300K and VP-400K accept one input, provide correct buffering

and isolation, and then distribute the signal to two, three or four (respectively)

identical outputs on high-density 15-pin HD connectors.

In particular, the high-resolution UXGA DAs feature:

High video bandwidth exceeding 400MHz, ensuring transparency even at

high-resolution graphics modes such as UXGA (1600x1200)

DDC (Display Data Channel) communication support between the input and

output 1 high-density 15-pin HD connectors on pins 11, 12 and 15

EDID PassThru that passes EDID signals from source to display

Kramer’s innovative integrated sync processing; KR-ISP™ technology,

which lets you achieve a sharp, stable image when the sync level is too low,

by restoring the sync signal waveform

An ID Bit control switch as well as polarity switches

5V DC operation and a DigiTOOLS®enclosure
