Kramer Electronics VM-3HDT 1:3+1 4K60 4:2:0 HDMI to Long-Range HDBaseT Distribution Amplifier

An indispensable tool for professional AV setups, the VM-3HDT 1:3+1 4K60 4:2:0 HDMI to Long-Range HDBaseT Distribution Amplifier is engineered to optimize high-definition signal distribution. This robust device is designed to receive a single HDMI input, complete with IR and RS-232 control signals, and seamlessly convert it into an HDBaseT signal. The signal is then distributed to three HDBaseT outputs, each capable of connecting to HDBaseT-compliant receivers, ensuring a versatile and standardized compatibility.

The VM-3HDT stands out with its HDMI LOOP output feature, which allows for local monitor connections or the cascading of multiple units in a daisy chain configuration, enhancing the flexibility of your AV network. This high-performance distribution capability ensures that one HDMI signal is effectively transmitted to three long-reach HDBaseT outputs, maintaining a pristine 4K video resolution.

With its advanced extension-line distribution, the VM-3HDT can transmit a 4K at 60Hz (4:2:0) 24bpp video signal over an HDBaseT extension line up to 40 meters, with the potential for even greater distances at lower video resolutions. This makes it an ideal solution for large venues or complex installation environments.

The device is fully compliant with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 1.4 standards, supporting a wide array of features such as Deep Color, x.v.Color, Lip Sync, 7.1 PCM, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, 2K, 4K, and 3D content. It also ensures seamless communication between source and display, with EDID and CEC signals (OUT 1 only) being effectively passed through.

Incorporating Kramer's I-EDIDPro Intelligent EDID Processing, the VM-3HDT guarantees a hassle-free Plug and Play experience for HDMI sources and display systems. The Kramer Equalization & re-Klocking Technology is another standout feature, which reconstructs the digital signal to maintain integrity over longer distances.

User-friendly operation is at the forefront of the VM-3HDT's design, with clear status indicators for HDMI and HDBaseT input/output connections, as well as power indicators, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting. Installation is made straightforward with the use of twisted-pair cables for HDBaseT signal wiring and a compact Mega TOOLS fan-less enclosure that can be mounted over-ceiling or side-by-side in a rack, ensuring a clean and efficient setup.

The VM-3HDT is a testament to sophisticated engineering, offering a reliable and high-quality solution for distributing HDMI signals across extended distances without compromising on video or audio quality. Whether for commercial, educational, or entertainment venues, this distribution amplifier is built to deliver exceptional performance and adaptability.
