Kramer. Matrix switchers

Matrix switchers by Kramer Electronics are designed to convert and route video, audio and control signals based on universal modular chassis. The equipment provides high signal quality, combines convenience and ease of control, has maximum reliability and a wide range of functionality.

Key features:

• Simultaneous redirection of signals from any input to one, several or all outputs in various dynamic combinations;
• Seamless (switching of the signal occurs in the interval of the vertical quenching pulse) and instantaneous switching between any inputs when using synchronized sources;
• Adjustable switching delay to ensure a clean transition between unsynchronized sources;
• Support for switching signals of various formats (CV / AV, VGA, DVI, SDI HDMI, analog / digital audio signals, etc.);
• Support for switching FullHD / 4K signals;
• Switching audio with or without the video signal;
• HDTV (high definition television) compatibility;
• Compliance with HDCP (system to protect high-bandwidth digital content) requirements;
• Support for EDID technology (extended display identification data—data sheet of display devices: monitors, TV panels, projectors, etc.), saving data in non-volatile memory;
• Memory cells for quick access to frequently used hardware configurations;
• Possibility of locking the front panel;
• Support for HDBaseT, DGKat technology, work over single-mode / multi-mode optical cable;
• Power Connect™ support—powering receivers / transmitters over twisted pair cable (optional, depending on equipment model);
• Control and testing of each input and output of the matrix, built-in test generator module (optional, depending on the equipment model);
• Various control options—front panel buttons, IR remote control, via RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces, web interface, using the Kramer Network platform (automatic detection of devices on the network, remote configuration, update, etc.);
• Standard enclosure to mount onto 19" rack.

Key benefits:

• The modular platform makes it possible to mix input and output modules of different types;
• Different modules can have their own input or output settings, allowing flexible adaptation of the interfaces to a specific task;
• The wide bandwidth ensures that no distortion is introduced by the switch;
• The set sequence of switchings is carried out by one pressing of the button;
• Low switching delay at the outputs due to Fast Switching technology;
• Hot-swappable redundancy of power supply (optional, depending on equipment model);
• Compensation of the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the cable and reclocking (resynchronization) to restore the signal during transmission over long distances;
• Functioning in Plug and Play mode thanks to the support of an intelligent algorithm for working with EDID I-EDIDPro™;
• Comprehensive system testing along the entire signal path (from source to display);
• Full control over signal routing without the need to install additional software (local control, built-in web interface, Kramer Network support);
• Any area of application: from connecting cable TV and building integrated conference systems, video and audio broadcasting and video surveillance to professional information display systems and video production studios;
• High signal quality, reliability, a variety of control options, a wide range of functionality.
