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

I-

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
