VP-774AMP – Overview 7

Remotely, from the infrared remote control transmitter

Via the Ethernet (optionally via the Web pages)
The VP-774AMP is housed in a 19” 1U rack mountable enclosure, with rack “ears”
included, and is fed from a 100-240 VAC universal switching power supply.
3.1 HDCP Compliance
If an HDMI signal is HDCP protected, it can only appear on HDMI and
HDBaseT outputs that are connected to HDCP compliant displays.
The VP-774AMP will not output an HDCP protected source to a display
that is not HDCP compliant. Instead it will show a green screen.
In the dual window display mode (see Section 7.2 ), even if only one of
the inputs is HDCP protected, and is output to a non-compliant display,
it will affect the entire screen and turn it green.

About HDBaseT™ Technology
HDBaseT™ is an advanced all-in-one connectivity technology (supported by the
HDBaseT Alliance). It is particularly suitable in the consumer home environment as
a digital home networking alternative where it enables you to replace numerous cables
and connectors by a single LAN cable used to transmit, for example, uncompressed full
high-definition video, audio, IR, as well as various control signals.
The products described in this user manual are HDBaseT certified.
3.3 Using Twisted Pair Cable
Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our
digital twisted pair products; the Kramer: BC-DGKat524 (CAT 5 24 AWG), the
Kramer: BC-DGKat623 (CAT 6 23 AWG cable), and the Kramer: BC-DGKat7a23
(CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built cables significantly outperform
regular CAT 5 / CAT 6 / CAT 7a cables.
We strongly recommend that you use shielded twisted pair cable.
