Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging
materials for possible future shipment
Review the contents of this user manual
Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables3
3 Overview
Using the VPN-11 UXGA / Component Transmitter with the VPN-12 UXGA /
Component Receiver, constitutes a UXGA / Component transmitter / receiver
system. The VPN-11 receives either a YUV signal or a UXGA4 signal
(selectable), transmits it via the coaxial cable to the VPN-12. The VPN-12
receives the signal at the LINE INPUT, amplifies it and distributes it to the
output.

Overview
The VPN-11 UXGA / Component Transmitter includes:
A YUV1 input on three RCA connectors
A UXGA input on an HD15F connector
A 12-pole detachable terminal block connector output for signal
transmission to the VPN-12 via a coaxial cable
A push button for selecting the input signal (UXGA or YUV)
The VPN-12 UXGA / Component Receiver includes:
A YUV1 output on three RCA connectors
A UXGA output on an HD15F connector
A 12-pole detachable terminal block connector input for signal reception
from the VPN-11 via coaxial cable
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noiselevels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position
your VPN-11 and/or VPN-12 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and
dust

5 Connecting a UXGA / Component Distribution System
To configure a VPN-11 / VPN-12 UXGA/Component distribution system as
the example in Figure 5 illustrates, do the following:
1. On the VPN-11, connect a component video source (for example, a DVD
player) to the Y/G, B-Y/B and R-Y/R RCA (component video) INPUT
connectors1.
2. On the VPN-12, connect the Y/G, B-Y/B and R-Y/R RCA (component video)
OUTPUT connectors to a component acceptor1 (for example, a plasma display).
3. Connect the LINE OUT 12-pole detachable terminal block connector of the
VPN-11 to the LINE INPUT 12-pole detachable terminal block connector
VPN-12, via coaxial cabling2 (maximum range of up to 10m).
4. On the VPN-11 unit connect a 12V DC power adapter to the power socket
and connect the adapter to the mains electricity. The VPN-12 unit receives its
power via the coaxial cable.

1 Alternatively, you can connect a computer graphics source to the VPN-11 UXGA INPUT, and connect the UXGA
OUTPUT connector on the VPN-12 to an acceptor (for example, a display)
