2.1 Achieving the Best Performance
To achieve the best performance:
Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-
performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in
signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often
associated with low quality cables)
Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils
Avoid interference from neighbouring electrical appliances that may adversely
influence signal quality
Position your VA-101P12, VA-102P12 away from moisture, excessive sunlight
and dust

2.4 Accessory to Medical Equipment (IEC 60601-1)
Both the VA-101P12 and the VA-102P12 are certified according to the IEC
60601-1-2, Clause 2.1.3, Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General
Requirements for EMC standard which is required when accessory devices are
used at locations where medical personnel and patients are present.
In this environment, the VA-101P12 and the VA-102P12 can be added to the
system ONLY if the connecting equipment has been evaluated and meets the IEC
60601-1-2 EMC standards. Note, that when attaching accessory devices to a digital
or analog interface, they must comply with the IEC standard for which they are
used: for EMC Standard (IEC 60601-1-2), Information Technology equipment (IEC
60950-1 (2ed)).

3 Overview
The VA-101P12 and VA-102P12 are 5- and 10-output power supplies used for
powering 12V DC powered devices. The VA-101P12 can supply a maximum of 1A
of current to each of five devices for a total of 5A current. The VA-102P12 can
supply a maximum of 1A of current to each of ten devices for a total of 10A current.
The power supplies are especially useful in high-population installations for saving
space and eliminating a large number of 12V DC power adapters.
