3 Overview
The Kramer VM-1045 is a high performance distribution amplifier for
component video signals. The unit has four channels. Each channel includes
seven BNC connectors: an input, a looping output, and five outputs.
The VM-1045 can be configured as a 1x1:5 component RGB/S DA, a 2x1:5
s-Video (Y/C) DA or as a 4x1:5 composite video DA.
The channels can be interconnected via the looping outputs to form larger
configurations. Also, several VM-1045 machines can be cascaded via the
looping outputs.
In particular, the VM-1045:
 Has a bandwidth of over 415MHz, ensuring transparent video
performance and supporting SDI signals (for example, a 4x1:5 SDI DA)
 Features independent input signal termination, as well as level and EQ.
controls per channel
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 VM-1045 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and
dust
