4 VS-88DTP - Overview
3 Overview
The VS−88DTP is a high−performance matrix switcher for DVI signals. The unit
accepts up to eight DVI inputs, reclocks and equalizes the signals, and routes to
any or all DGKat™ twisted pair outputs simultaneously for connection to
compatible TP receivers, for example, the PT-572HDCP+ or TP-574.
More specifically, the VS-88DTP features:
• A maximum data rate of 4.95Gbps (1.65Gbps per graphic channel)
• 8 DVI-D inputs on DVI-I connectors
• 8 DGKat twisted pair outputs on RJ-45 connectors
• HDTV compatibility (no HDCP compliance)
• DGKat™ Signal Integration that converts TMDS as well as control and
communication to signals that run over twisted pair cables. Kramer strongly
recommends using Kramer DGKat™ cables designed specifically for
optimum performance
• Kramer Equalization & re-Klocking™ Technology that rebuilds the digital
signal integrity to travel longer distances
• I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™, an intelligent EDID
handling & processing algorithm that ensures Plug and Play operation for
DVI systems
• A system range of up to 30m (98ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat524
cable; up to 70m (230ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat623 cable; up to
90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat7a23 cable
• Flexible control options including: front panel, IR remote (included), RS-232
(K-Router™ Windows®-based software is included), RS-485, Ethernet
(Windows®-based Ethernet Configuration Manager & Virtual Serial Port
Manager included)
• Output disconnect for each output
• Front panel lockout to prevent tampering with the front panel buttons
• 16 memory locations that store multiple switches as presets to be recalled
and executed when needed
