This section describes the VM-1021 1:20 Video Distributor.
5.1 Overview
The VM-1021 is a high-performance distribution amplifier for composite or SDI
video signals. It provides controls to compensate for signal losses inherent in long
cable runs.
The VM-1021 is a full broadcast, state-of-the-art, 1:20 video distribution amplifier
designed for studio and other demanding applications. The unit splits a single
input source into twenty identical outputs with no discernible signal degradation.
Output signals can either be AC or DC coupled, black level or sync tip clamped,
thus allowing the machine to function in all video environments. The outputs are
divided into 4 sets of five each, where each set may be individually trimmed (level
and EQ) for maximal flexibility. The machine may be used to distribute analog or
SDI (Serial Digital) video signals, composite or single component.
The unit features:
• High bandwidth of 350MHz (-3dB)
• Grouped level (gain) and EQ (peaking) controls
• Looping inputs
• Selectable input signal termination
• Black or sync tip selectable clamping
• A video AC/DC coupling selection
• Standard 19” rack mount size of 1U
