Getting Started

2.1 Quick Start

This quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps.

Overview

3 Overview

The Kramer VM-4HDCP is an HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content

Protection)1compatible 1:4 distribution amplifier for DVI-D (Digital)

signals2

In particular, the VM-4HDCP:

. Since high-resolution DVI signals are very sensitive to cable

quality and to PCB layout, the VM-4HDCP uses a uniquely designed PCB

which includes all buffering, conditioning and amplifying circuitry to

provide four high-level output signals.

•Distributes signals having resolutions up to UXGA, including all

HDTV formats

•Has a bandwidth of 1.65GHz

•Supports the DDWG DVI 1.0 standard

•Consists of a built-in re-clocking block that re-generates the DVI

signal, so that several units may be cascaded

•Can read and store, in non-volatile memory, the EDID3

•Has I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™,an

intelligent EDID handling and processing algorithm that ensures

Plug and Play operation for DVI systems

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

•Has five DVI-I connectors, which are compatible with all types of

DVI cables

•Is a cost-effective solution for distributing the TMDS signals used

for DVI, and uses state-of-the-art line drivers on each of the 4

outputs

The VM-4HDCP fits in one vertical space of a standard 19” professional

rack enclosure (1U).

3.1 About HDCP

The High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) standard1

3.2 Defining EDID

, protects

digital video and audio signals transmitted over DVI or HDMI connections

between two HDCP-enabled devices to eliminate the reproduction of

copyrighted material. To protect copyright holders (such as movie studios)

from having their programs copied and shared, the HDCP standard provides

for the secure, encrypted transmission of digital signals.

The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID2

3.3 Recommendations for Best Performance

) is a data-structure,

provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to the source. The EDID

enables the VM-4HDCP to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to

the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type,

the timing data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data

and (for digital displays only) the pixel mapping data.

Achieving the best performance means:

•Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding

interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching,

and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)

•Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances and

positioning your VM-4HDCP away from moisture, excessive

sunlight and dust

Connecting a VM-4HDCP 1:4 DVI Distributor

6 Connecting a VM-4HDCP 1:4 DVI Distributor

To connect the VM-4HDCP as illustrated in the example in Figure 2, do the

following:

1. Connect a DVI source (for example, a computer) to the INPUT connector.

2. Connect the 4 OUTPUT connectors1

OUTPUT 1 connector to DVI acceptor 1 (for example, a

projector)

to up to 4 DVI acceptors, as

follows:

OUTPUT 2 connector to DVI acceptor 2 (for example, a

display)

OUTPUT 3 connector to DVI acceptor 3 (for example, a

display)

OUTPUT 4 connector to DVI acceptor 4 (for example, a

display)

3. Connect the power cord to the mains electricity (not shown in Figure 2).

To use the VM-4HDCP, do the following:

1. Turn ON the POWER.

2. Acquire the EDID (see section 6.1).
