Kramer VP-554X 11 x 4:2 Presentation Boardroom Router/Scaler System

The VP-554X is a high-performance presentation scaler/switcher with 4 pairs of independent and scaled outputs. It includes multiple HDMI and HDBaseT inputs - supporting resolutions up to 4K - as well as a legacy VGA input, and each of the 4 outputs is mirrored on both HDMI and HDBT.

VP-554X supports embedded and balanced analog stereo audio, up to 2 microphone inputs, DSP audio features and a built-in stereo power amplifier. It includes a built-in Ethernet switch and supports legacy RS-232, and IR, Ethernet and RS-232 tunneling over HDBT.

Key Features

• Pix-Perfect Scaling Technology - Kramer’s precision pixel mapping and high-quality full up - and down-scaling technology.
• High-Performance Switcher/Scaler - Scales the video and provides constant output sync to prevent signal disruption when switching between inputs and when no video is detected.
• HDCP 2.3 Compliance - The HDCP (High-Definition Content Protection) license agreement allows copy-protected data on the HDMI input to pass to HDCP compliant outputs.
• Resolutions - Up to 4K60 4:4:4 on the HDMI ports; up to 4K60 4:2:0 on the HDBaseT ports; and up to 1080p60 on the VGA input.
• System Range for the HDBT inputs and outputs - Up to 100m for 4K; 180m for 1080p.
• 4x1 USB Switcher - Can be set to follow the switching of the video layer or as an independent switcher.
• Audio DSP Features, including input and output level adjustments, microphone talkover, mixing, and EQ.
• Analog & Embedded Audio Support.
• Built-in Power Amplifier - 2x20W.
• Built-in Video ProcAmp - Color, hue, sharpness, noise, contrast, and brightness.
• Option for video wall output mode.
• Multiple Control Options - Front panel buttons with OSD, RS-232, Ethernet and built-in Web pages.
• Includes numerous filters and algorithms for eliminating picture artifacts.
• Converts to 4K60 4:2:0 on HDBaseT outputs when its corresponding mirrored HDMI output resolution is 4K60 4:4:4 (similarly for 4K50).
• HDMI Support - HDR10, CEC, xvYCC color (on input), Dolby TrueHD/DTS-HD Master Audio (by-pass), as specified in HDMI
• 2.0 as specified in HDMI 2.0.
• Multiple aspect ratio selections.
• Advanced EDID management per input.
• Includes non-volatile memory that retains the last settings, after switching the power off and then on again.
• STO and RCL buttons, a RESET TO XGA/1080P button (to hardware-reset the output resolution); and a PANEL LOCK button.
• Built-in video Proc-Amp - color, hue, sharpness, contrast, and brightness are set individually for each output.
• An OSD (On-Screen Display) - for making adjustments - that can be located anywhere on the screen.
• Efficient power-saving features.
• Advanced EDID management per input.
• Includes non-volatile memory that retains the last settings, after switching the power off and then on again.
