3 Overview
The Kramer VS-6464DN is a high performance matrix switcher chassis that
supports up to 64 x 64 ports 1 for various signals (depending on the type of
cards installed). It features a very high bandwidth 2
The VS-6464DN is highly configurable–you can add or remove inputs and
outputs independently in groups of eight and mix different types of
input/ouput cards in the same chassis. For example, you can configure a
device as a 8 x 24 or a 64 x 8 matrix switcher to exactly suit your needs.
of up to 3.2Gbps (for the
chassis only, effective bandwidth of the system depends on the I/O cards)
that ensures transparent performance even in the most critical applications.
The cards re-clock and equalize the signals and the chassis can route any or
all inputs to any or all outputs simultaneously.
The VS-6464DN features:
• Full 64 x 64 non-blocking matrix array to switch any of the 64 input
digital signals to any or all of the 64 outputs (with limitations, see 6)
• Easy access to 59 preset memory locations for quick access to user-
defined setups
• The Kramer 2000 Protocol for serial control
• A 40 character by 2 line LCD that shows the operational status or the
configuration menu
• A lock function to prevent tampering with the front panel
• A default EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for each input
• I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™ – Intelligent
EDID handling and processing algorithm ensures plug and play
operation for DVI/HDMI systems
• Non-volatile EDID storage
• Kramer Core™—FLEXIBLE INFRASTRUCTURE
CONVERSION! Copper, fiber or Twisted Pair–all can be used at the
same time according to input/output module selection. The matrix
receives signals from compatible Kramer transmitters, automatically
converts between available infrastructure options and sends the
signals to compatible Kramer receivers
• Equalization and re-clocking on all card types
• Support for redundant power-supplies
1 Can also be configured for other sizes (up to a maximum of 64 x 64)
