Introduction

Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better!

Getting Started

We recommend that you:

• Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment.
• Review the contents of this user manual.
  Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/VP-451 to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

Achieving the Best Performance

• Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).
• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils. · Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality.
• Position your Kramer VP-451 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust.

Safety Instructions

Overview

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VP-451 HDMI / USB-C Scaler.

VP-451 is a high-performance 18G 4K digital scaler for HDMITM and USB-C signals. The unit up-scales, down-scales, and cross-scales to resolutions up to 4K@60 (4:4:4). The output resolution can be set to automatically follow the native resolution of the sink or set manually to a custom resolution.

VP-451 provides exceptional quality, advanced and user-friendly operation, and flexible connectivity.

Exceptional Quality

• High-Performance Professional Scaler ­ Supports HDR10 and HDCP 2.2/1.4, and features input auto­switching, constant sync on the output even if the input video signal is lost or interrupted, and a built-in ProcAmp for convenient signal adjustment.
• Automatic Display Control ­ Supports CEC that enables automatically turning the display on and off.
• HDMI Support ­ HDR, CEC, 4K@60, Deep Color / x.v.ColorTM, 7.1 PCM, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD as specified in HDMI 2.0.

Advanced and User-friendly Operation

• Fast, Smooth Manual and Auto Switching Between Sources ­ Select the USB Type-C or one of the HDMI inputs, or configure the device to automatically select the active source.
• Convenient Unit Control ­ Control the unit using an OSD (On-Screen Display) menu via front panel buttons and input selector, video freeze and resolution reset front panel buttons. Additionally, connect to the contact closure connector for remote switching of sources. All settings are saved in non-volatile memory.
• USB-C Powering ­ Provides up to 60W of power via the USB-C input, making it suitable for charging USB-C devices.
• User-Friendly Operation ­ LED indicator for each input and for power status. Local firmware upgrade via the USB type-A port ensures lasting, field-proven deployment.
• Easy Installation ­ Compact MegaTOOLS® fan-less enclosure for surface mounting or side-by-side mounting of 2 units in a 1U rack space with the recommended rack adapter.

Flexible Connectivity

• Flexible Analog Audio Embedding and Extraction (De-embedding) ­ The user can select the unbalanced analog audio input to embed into the HDMI output signal. On the output, the user can select to extract the audio signal and output it as balanced analog audio.

Typical Applications

VP-451 is ideal for the following typical applications:

• Meeting rooms and huddle spaces.
