VM-2UX, VM-4UX and VM-8UX are compact and high-performance 1:2/1:4/1:8 4K distributors for
standard broadcast-grade SDI signals of up to 12G transmitted data rate. They auto-adapt to
the data rate of one SDI input signal, equalize and re-clock the signal to improve transmitted
signal reach, and distribute the signal to two/four/eight identical SDI outputs.
VM-2UX/VM-4UX/VM-8UX 1:2/1:4/1:8 4K 12G SDI DA
FEATURES
Reliable Wire Connectivity - Coaxial broadcast-grade cables are reliably connected via lockable
BNC connectors, preventing unintentional wire disconnections, to gain fast and highly
professional uncompressed SDI signals distribution deployments.
Extended-Reach Input Extension - Input signal equalization and output signal reclocking to gain
extended-reach signal extension. Using high-quality coaxial SDI cables, supports extension of
up to 80m (260ft) for 12G 4K signals.
Note: Reach depends on signal resolution, and quality of copper cable used. Reach extension
performance may vary while using coaxial cables that are not high-quality.
Transmitted Data Rate - From 270Mbps to 12Gbps data rates.
Max. Resolution - 4K@60Hz (4:2:2) 30bpp.
SDI Signal Transmission - Auto-adapts to SDI, HD-SDI, 3G HD-SDI, 6G and 12G SDI compliant
signals, supporting pass-through of standard embedded audio channels with ancillary ID and
metadata information.
Easy Installation & Maintenance - Compact fan-less enclosures for small footprint spaces and
over-ceiling mounting, or side-by-side mounting of 4/3/2 units in a 1U rack space with the RK-
4PT/RK-3T/RK-T2B optional Kramer rack adapter. Status indicators for transmitted SDI data
rate of input and output connected signals, and power indicator, for ease of maintenance
and troubleshooting.
