3  Overview 

The Kramer 

VP-200N

VP-300N

 and 

VP-400N

 are high performance 1:2, 1:3 

and 1:4 distribution amplifiers for XGA and higher resolution signals. They 

are upgrades of the best-selling 

VP-200

VP-300

 and 

VP-400

 machines, with 

larger bandwidth and DC coupling throughout, for best linearity. 
The 

VP-200N

VP-300N

 and 

VP-400N

Accept one input, provide correct buffering and isolation, and then distribute 

the signal to 2, 3 or 4 identical outputs on high-density 15 pin HD connectors 

Have video bandwidth exceeding 400MHz, ensuring that the machines 

remain transparent even at high-resolution graphics modes such as UXGA 

(1600x1200) 

Accept analog or digital syncs

1

 and provide ID Bit control

2

 

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 

VP-200N

VP-300N

 and/or 

VP-400N

 in a location free from 

moisture and away from 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. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                       

 

1 Via a pair of underside switches. Note that both the Hs (horizontal sync) switch and the Vs (vertical sync) switch MUST be 
set identically 
2 Via an underside switch. Sometimes notebook computers refuse to output a VGA signal to an external VGA monitor. By 
setting the ID BIT to ON, the notebook will output to an external VGA monitor 
3 For example: model number AD2512C, part number 2535-000251
