KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY
Overview
3 Overview
The high-performance Kramer VP-111K is a line driver for signals
exceeding UXGA. It accepts one input, provides correct buffering and
isolation, and outputs the amplified and equalized signal to a remote
acceptor. It also loops the input signal to a local monitor (or some other
acceptor).
The VP-111K features:
High bandwidth (500MHz) that drives very long high-resolution
lines1 ensuring transparency even at highest resolution
A TERM switch for input signal termination
KR-ISP™ Advanced Sync Processing that ensures compatibility
with a wide range of computers (even if the sync level is too low)
by restoring the sync signal waveform
To achieve the best performance:
Use only good quality connection cables2 to avoid interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated
noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that
may adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer
VP-111K away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.
Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power
wall adapter that is provided with this unit3.
Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall
before installing or removing device or servicing unit.
1 Up to 100 meters (300ft) when using good quality cable

5 Connecting the VP-111K UXGA Line Driver
To connect the VP-111K, as the example in Figure 2 illustrates, do the
following1:
1. Connect a computer graphics source (for example, a laptop) to the INPUT
15-pin HD (F) connector.
2. Connect the OUTPUT 15-pin HD (F) connector to an acceptor (for
example, a projector).
3. Connect the LOOP 15-pin HD (F) connector to an acceptor (for
example, a local display).
4. Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the 5V DC socket and connect the
transformer to the mains electricity (not illustrated in Figure 2).
5. Set the termination switch as follows:
If no acceptor is attached to the LOOP connector, press the
pushbutton in to the 75 setting
If a acceptor is attached to the LOOP connector, set the
pushbutton out to HI-Z setting
1 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your VP-111K. After connecting your VP-1 11K, switch on
its power and then switch on the power on each device
