Overview

3 Overview

The VS-211HDxl is a high-performance automatic standby switcher for

SD/HD-SDI and 3G HD-SDI video signals. The VS-211HDxl

automatically switches to the secondary input whenever the primary video

signal is interrupted. If the primary signal reappears, the unit automatically

switches back to the primary input.

In addition, the VS-211HDxl features:

• Maximum data rate of up to 2.97Gbps

• Multi-standard operation – SMPTE 259M, 292M and 424M

compliance and support for data rates of 270Mbps, 1483.5Mbps,

1485Mbps and 2970Mbps

• A DEFAULT INPUT switch for selecting the default SDI master

source signal

• Contact closure remote control for forced operation

• Active switching and has flexible sync detection and

reconstruction circuitry

To achieve the best performance:

• Use only good quality connection cables

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

VS-211HDxl away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
