3  Overview 
The high quality PT201VGA 2x1 VGA Switcher is a micro-sized mechanical 
switcher designed for VGA/XGA/UXGA signals using high-density 15 pin HD 
connectors. The PT201VGA: 
 Accepts 2 inputs and lets you select either input using a switch located on 
the front panel 
 With its passive design, eliminates the need for a power supply, and 
makes it possible to operate “backwards” (as a 1x2 switcher), by taking a 
single input and toggling between two displays 
 Has high quality switching components and careful circuit design, ensuring 
very high bandwidth exceeding 1200 MHz (1.2GHz!) and minimal crosstalk 
Achieving the best performance means: 
 Connecting 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) 
 Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may 
adversely influence signal quality and positioning your Kramer PT201VGA in 
a location free from moisture and away from excessive sunlight and dust
