It is an excellent compatibility solution for many applications, especially for presentation applications where two different formats must be switched to one acceptor. The 401Dxl has full compensation for Y/C delay, and comes with a 12V power supply. The optional VA-50Pcan power up to six Kramer devices requiring 12VDC.

The 401Dxl is part of the Kramer TOOLS family of compact, high quality, cost effective solutions for a variety of applications.
