2 VM-5ARII, VM-20ARII - Getting Started
2 Getting Started
We recommend that you:
•Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging
materials for possible future shipment
•Review the contents of this user manual
Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables
Use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine
Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date
user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware
upgrades are available (where appropriate).
2.1 Achieving the Best Performance
To achieve the best performance:
•Use only good quality connection cables to avoid interference, deterioration
in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often
associated with low quality cables)
•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely
influence signal quality
•Position your Kramer product away from moisture, excessive sunlight and
dust

VM-5ARII, VM-20ARII - Overview 3
3 Overview
This section gives an overview of the:
•VM-5ARII Video Audio Distribution Amplifier, see Section 3.1
•VM-20ARII 1:20 Programmable Video Audio Distributor, see Section 3.2
3.1 The VM-5ARII Video Audio Distribution Amplifier
The Kramer VM-5ARII is a high-performance distribution amplifier for composite
video and unbalanced stereo audio signals. It takes one input, provides correct
buffering and isolation and distributes the signal to five identical outputs.
More specifically, the VM-5ARII features:
•High bandwidth 360MHz (-3dB)
•1 composite video input and 5 outputs on BNC connectors
•1 unbalanced stereo input and 5 outputs on RCA connectors
•Looping input
•Selectable input signal termination
•Video level and equalization, and audio level controls
•Video AC/DC coupling detection
•Standard 19” 1U rack mount size
3.2 The VM-20ARII 1:20 Programmable Video Audio
Distributor
The VM-20ARII is a multi-format, high-performance distribution amplifier that can
be configured for composite video and unbalanced stereo audio signals. It can be
configured as a 1:10 distribution amplifier for s-Video (Y/C) signals or a 1:5
distribution amplifier for RGBS signals, both with unbalanced stereo audio.
4 VM-5ARII, VM-20ARII - Overview
More specifically, the VM-20ARII features:
•High bandwidth of 430MHz (-3dB)
•1 video input and 20 outputs on BNC connectors
•1 unbalanced stereo input and 20 outputs on RCA connectors
•Looped input capability
•Grouped audio level control
•Selectable input signal termination
•Audio level and video level and equalization controls
