Introduction

Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world

of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the

video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we

have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better!

Getting Started

Although this user manual describes the VM‑4HDT it also refers to VM‑3HDT and

VM‑2HDT, unless specified otherwise.

Note that:

•VM‑4HDT has 4 HDBaseT outputs.

•VM‑3HDT has one loop output and 3 HDBaseT outputs.

•VM‑2HDT has one loop output and 2 HDBaseT outputs.

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.

Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/VM-4HDT to check for up-to-date user manuals,

application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

•Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance,

high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor

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

•Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils.

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence

signal quality.

•Position your Kramer VM‑4HDT away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust.

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other

equipment that is installed inside a building.

Overview

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer HDMI to HDBT DA.

VM‑4HDT is a high-quality, long-reach HDBaseT extender and distributor that takes HDMI, IR

and RS-232 signals, and converts and distributes them to 4 HDBaseT outputs. The VM‑4HDT

supports HDMI resolutions up to 4K@60 (4:2:0), and the outputs can be connected to

compatible HDBaseT receivers such as the TP-580R.

VM‑3HDT and VM‑2HDT also include an HDMI LOOP output for connecting to an additional

unit in a daisy chain.

VM‑4HDT provides exceptional quality and advanced and user-friendly operation.

Exceptional Quality

•High Performance Distribution –Distributes one HDMI signal to four long-reach

HDBaseT extension outputs with up to 4K video resolution.

•Extension-line Distribution –Distributes a 4K@60Hz (4:2:0) 24bpp (maximum) video

signal over HDBaseT extension line to a distance of up to 40m (130ft) long-reach, and

even further for lower video resolutions.

•HDMI Signal Transmission –HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 1.4 compliant signal, supporting Deep

Color, x.v.Color™, Lip Sync, 7.1 PCM, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, 2K, 4K, and 3D. EDID

and CEC (OUT 1 only) signals are passed through from the source to the display.

For VM‑2HDT and VM‑3HDT, CEC is passed from the LOOP OUT to the HDBT

OUT 1 and to the display on the connected receiver.

Kramer Electronics Ltd.

VM‑4HDT, VM‑3HDT, VM‑2HDT –Connecting the VM‑4HDT, VM‑3HDT and VM‑2HDT

Connecting the VM‑4HDT,

VM‑3HDT and VM‑2HDT

Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your VM‑4HDT. After

connecting your VM‑4HDT, connect its power and then switch on the power to each

device.

To connect the VM‑4HDT as illustrated in the example in Figure 4:

Figure 5 illustrates how to connect the VM‑3HDT (the same applies to VM‑2HDT that has 2

HDBT outputs).

1. Connect an HDMI input source (for example, a Blu-ray disk player) to the HDMI IN

connector .

2. Connect each HDBT output to an HDBT receiver (for example, The TP-580R or the

TP-588D).

If a Mac computer is connected as a source, it will output an HDCP-secured

signal that will not passed-through to any connected non-HDCP acceptors.

3. For VM‑3HDT and VM‑2HDT only, connect the LOOP HDMI connector to an HDMI

acceptor (for example, a VM-4HDT or a local display).

4. If required, connect the IR 3.5mm mini jack to an IR sensor or emitter (for example,

an emitter, to control, with its IR remote controller, the projector that is connected to an

HDBT receiver). See IR and RS-232 Signal Routing on page 9for further details.

5. If required, connect a controller (for example, the RC-206 control keypad) to the RS-232

3-pin terminal block connector to control a remote display that is connected to an

HDBT receiver. See IR and RS-232 Signal Routing on page 9for further details.

6. Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the power socket unit and then connect the

adapter to the mains electricity (not shown in Figure 4).
