• Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature & air flow) is compatible for the device.

• Avoid uneven mechanical loading.

• Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be

used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.

• Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs

Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your VS-6464DN-EM. For best results, we recommend that you always use Kramer high-performance cables to connect AV equipment to the VS-6464DN-EM.

Note: the maximum number of ports may vary.
