Kramer VP-201XL 2x1 Computer Graphics Video Mechanical Switcher

The Kramer VP-201xl is a newer version of the Kramer VP-201, a high quality 2x1 mechanical switcher designed for VGA/XGA/UXGA signals, using high density 15 pin HD connectors. It accepts two inputs and allows the user to select either input using a switch located on the front panel. High quality switching components and careful circuit design are used to ensure very high bandwidth and minimal crosstalk.

This ergonomically redesigned version using a strip line designed PCB, achieves a signal bandwidth 1300 MHz (1.3GHz!). The passive design of the VP-201xl eliminates the need for a power supply, and makes it possible to operate “backwards” by taking a single input and toggling between two displays. Note that it cannot route the signal to two ports simultaneously. The VP-201xl is part of the Kramer TOOLS family of high quality, cost effective solutions for a variety of applications.
