Getting To Know Your VM-1021 Amplifier
The KRAMER VM-1021 is a full broadcast, state-of-the-art, 1:20 Video Distribution
Amplifier designed for studio and other demanding applications. The VM-1021 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. Video bandwidth of well over 350MHz and
superb specifications make the VM-1021 the ultimate distributor for all video applications.
Front/rear panel features of the VM-1021 are described in Figure 3, Table 5 and Table 6.
