Kramer 16x4 Video and Balanced Audio Matrix
Product Description
The Kramer VS-1604 is a high performance, 16x4 vertical interval matrix switcher for composite video and balanced stereo audio signals. It is a true matrix, allowing the user to route any input to any or all outputs simultaneously. Since the VS-1604 switches during the vertical interval, transitions are glitch-free when sources share common reference sync. There are many updated features on this popular design including audio breakaway, which provides the ability to switch audio independently from video. In addition, the TAKE button allows the user to place multiple switches in a queue, then activate them with one touch of this button.
Kramer's new K-Switch control software is included for applications where a Windows 1/4 based PC is used to control the VS-1604. There are three ways to control the VS-1604: front-panel buttons, RS-232, and RS-485. It is dependable, rugged, and fits in two vertical spaces of a standard 19" rack. Video bandwidth of 200MHz ensures that the VS-1604 remains transparent even in the most critical applications.
The VS-1604YC is a high performance matrix switcher for S-Video (Y/C) and unbalanced stereo audio signals. Switching during the vertical interval ensures glitch-free switching with genlocked sources.
