3 Overview
The Kramer VP-41 4x1 VGA / XGA Switcher is a high performance
mechanical 4x1 switcher for VGA/XGA signals. It is designed to route one of
up to four inputs to one output using 15-pin HD female connectors. Its
unpowered passive design is an advantage in applications where various
regulatory compliances would otherwise be required. The passive “hardwire”
signal path offers very high bandwidth and can also switch other signal
formats.
