VS-401XLM • VS-601XLM • VS-801XLM • VS-1001XLM • VS-1201XL
4x1, 6x1, 8x1, 10x1, and 12x1
Vertical Interval Video and Unabalanced Audio Switchers with RS-232
The VS-401XLM, VS-601XLM, VS-801XLM, VS-1001XLM,
and VS-1201XL Vertical Interval Switchers provide truly
effortless switching between four, six, eight, ten or
twelve video and unbalanced audio inputs to one
output (video and audio). Switching is done during
vertical interval, either of source no.1 or of the video
connected to the external sync socket. The switchers can be controlled by touch buttons on the front panel; by a PC via
their built-in RS-232 and/or RS-485/422 communication ports; or by contact closure via a remote socket on the back panel.
Each of the switchers can be interconnected and cascaded, (two VS-1201XL’s become a 24x1switcher, etc.) They can also
be operated in parallel (three VS-1201XL’s become a 12x3 video component switcher). All except the VS-1201XL (250MHz)
feature high bandwidth of 400MHz allowing them to be used in the most demanding applications.

The main difference is that the “11” group has snap fit terminal block connectors for balanced audio.
The VS-411, VS-611, VS-1011, VS-1211 are high performance switchers for composite video and Balanced Audio signals.
Switching during the vertical interval ensures glitch-free switching with genlocked sources.
