VIA Connect PRO –Introduction

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

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VIA Connect PRO, VIA Connect PLUS

Presentation & Collaboration Solution.

Unless otherwise noted, when VIA Connect PRO is mentioned it refers to both VIA Connect

PRO and VIA Connect PLUS.

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/VIA Connect PLUS to check for up-to-date user

manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where

appropriate).

Achieving Best 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 VIA Connect PRO 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.
