Overview

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.

• 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.
• 11 input buttons for switching a selected input to an output.
• Scaled video outputs — 4 pairs of mirrored HDMI and HDBT outputs.
• Embedded audio on the HDMI and HDBT inputs and outputs.
• 11 input buttons for switching a selected input to an output.
• Embedded audio on the HDMI and HDBT inputs and outputs.
• Scaled video outputs — 4 pairs of mirrored HDMI and HDBT outputs.
