Overview

3 Overview

The high performance VS-88HCB is a universal matrix switcher for composite

video, s-Video, component video (Y, Cb/Pb, and Cr/Pr), balanced stereo audio

and S/PDIF digital audio signals. It can route any or all inputs to any or all outputs

simultaneously. The VS-88HCB 8x8 Component /Video / Audio Matrix

Switcher features:

High Bandwidth - 300MHz (-3dB) fully loaded

HDTV compatibility

Control via the front panel, RS-232 (K-Router™ Windows®-based

software is included), RS-485, Ethernet, IR Remote RC-IR2 (included)

and external Remote IR receiver (optional), see section 4.1

A Take button to execute multiple switches all at once

Memory locations that can be used to store multiple switches as presets to

be recalled and executed when needed

Audio (analog) breakaway switching, for switching audio independently

from video

The VS-88HCB is housed in a 19” 3U rack mountable enclosure.

In addition, the VS-88HCB:

Can be used for mixed video applications such as CV, Y/C and YUV

simultaneously

Includes an ETHERNET connection that supports easy dial-up and Internet

system remote control (requiring only a dedicated IP address

and a modem in

the remote location) whether it is a stand-alone PC or a LAN

system

To achieve the best performance:

Connect 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)

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your

Kramer VS-88HCB away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

4 Your VS-88HCB

Figure 1 and Table 1 define the front and rear panels of the VS-88HCB.

1 IP Address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies each sender or receiver (within a network via a particular server or

workstation) of data (HTML pages or e-mails) that is sent in packets across the Internet. Every device connected to an IP

network must have a unique IP address. This address is used to reference the specific unit

2 LAN is Local Area Network
