Kramer VS-4FW [7/14] Your firewire repeater hub

Your FireWire Repeater / HUB

 Include built-in protection from electrostatic discharge (ESD)

, by

suppressing all transient high voltages down to the allowed level. In

particular, ESD protection for high-speed data lines to IEC 61000-4-2

(ESD) 15kV (air), 8kV (contact), IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning) 12A

(8/20us), and IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40A (5/50ns)

Achieving the best performance means:

 Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding

interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and

elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)

 Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances and

positioning your FireWire Repeater / HUB 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 unit

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall

before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

4 Your FireWire Repeater / HUB

This section describes how to connect the FireWire Repeater / HUB. In

particular, how to:

 Connect the VS-4FW (see section 4.1)

 Connect the VS-6FW (see section 4.2)

 Connect the VS-8FW (see section 4.3)

1 Often when connecting a "live" DV source to a receptor, an electrical potential difference or any other element creating a

high voltage (such as ESD or a live chassis) may permanently damage one or both of the connected devices. This high voltage

may be seen as a spark occurring at the instant of connection, or may not be seen at all, but nevertheless can result in costly

damage
