Overview 3 Overview The Kramer VS-1616D is a high performance matrix switcher chassis that supports up to 16 x 16 ports1 for various signals (depending on the type of cards installed). It features a very high bandwidth2 of up to 3.2Gbps (for the chassis only, effective bandwidth of the system depends on the I/O cards) that ensures transparent performance even in the most critical applications.
PAGE 9
Overview You can operate the VS-1616D via the front panel buttons1 or remotely via:  RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC or other serial controller  Ethernet over a LAN  The infrared remote control transmitter  Kramer K-Router Plus software application The VS-1616D is housed in a 19" rack-mountable enclosure.

Overview 3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products; Kramer's BC-DGKat524, BC-DGKat623/ BC-HDKat6a and BC-DGKat7a23 shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. These specially built cables significantly outperform regular CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables. 3.

Connecting the VS-1616D 16x16 Digital Matrix Switcher 6 Connecting the VS-1616D 16x16 Digital Matrix Switcher The configuration of DVI input/output cards shown in Figure 4 is merely an sample representation and different I/O cards may be mixed as required (for limitations, see Page 14). Exactly the same principles apply to installations using other card types. Figure 4: Connecting the VS-1616D 1 To install the VS-1616D as illustrated in the example in Figure 4: 1.
PAGE 18
Connecting the VS-1616D 16x16 Digital Matrix Switcher 4. Connect the power cord1. 5. If necessary, review and set the system configuration using the Menu (see Section 8). Note: Given an input signal that is HDCP encoded, the VS-1616D will output a signal only if the output port to which it is switched supports HDCP. 6.
PAGE 19
Connecting the VS-1616D 16x16 Digital Matrix Switcher On all cards apart from the DVI dual link cards, there are two physical ports on each card and numbering of ports is sequential from top to bottom and left to right. Each DVI dual link card provides one physical port which causes the loss of one number in the numbering sequence of that card only. A sample numbering is shown in Figure 5 and explained in Table 4. 6.1.
