3 Overview
Thank you for purchasing the Kramer VS-808TP 8x8 Twisted Pair Matrix Switcher.
This unique matrix switcher which utilizes economical TP (Twisted Pair) cabling
often pre-installed in buildings these days, routes and distributes signals both from
a local and/or remote source, and at extended ranges. It is designed especially for
installations where a high level of control possibilities is required from extended
distances. Typical uses include presentation and multimedia applications, as well
as long-range graphics distribution and control for schools, hospitals, security, and
stores.
The VS-808TP features:
• Eight inputs and eight outputs for remote connection to compatible TP
transmitters and receivers
• A switchable local input (built-in transmitter) and output (built-in receiver)
allowing direct connection of the signals (up to WUXGA, audio and RS-232)
for the units located near to the switcher (TP-133/TP-134 only)
• Follow or breakaway switching for audio signals
• Baud rate of up to 115200 for full-duplex RS-232
• Two-line LCD display for separate route indication of video, audio or RS-232
• Control via front panel buttons, RS-232, RS-485 and Ethernet
• 15 user-programmable presets for quick-change configurations
