Overview
The Kramer VM-2HDCPxl is an HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) compatible 1:2 distribution amplifier for DVI-D (Digital) signals. Since
high-resolution DVI signals are very sensitive to cable quality
and to PCB layout,
the VM-2HDCPxl uses a uniquely designed PCB which includes all buffering,
conditioning and amplifying circuitry to provide two high-level output signals.
In particular, the VM-2HDCPxl features:
Distribution of signals having resolutions up to WUXGA, including all HDTV
formats
A maximum data rate of 6.75Gbps (2.25Gbps per graphic channel)
Support for the DDWG DVI 1.0 standard
A built-in re-clocking block that re-generates the DVI signal, so that several
units may be cascaded
Reading and storage, in non-volatile memory, of the EDID block from one of
the outputs, so it can then provide the EDID information to the DVI source
even if the display device is not connected

EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™, an intelligent EDID
handling and processing algorithm that ensures Plug and Play operation for
HDMI systems
Three DVI-I connectors, which are compatible with all types of DVI cables
A cost-effective solution for distributing the TMDS signals used for DVI, and
uses state-of-the-art line drivers on both outputs
