3.1HDCP Compliance

i

If an HDMI signal is HDCP protected, it can only appear on HDMI and DGKat outputs that are connected to HDCP compliant displays.

The VP-770will not output an HDCP protected source to a display that is not HDCP compliant. Instead it will show a black screen.

In the dual window display mode (see Section 7.2), even if only one of the inputs is HDCP protected, and is output to a non-compliant display, it will affect the entire screen and turn it black.

3.2About the Power Connect™ Feature

The VP-770can power the receiver on the DGKat output when the devices are

within 90m (270ft) of each other. The Power Connect™ feature applies as long as

the cable can carry power and the distance does not exceed 90m on standard TP cable. For longer distances, heavy gauge cable should be used (TP cable is still

suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these

distances).

3.3Using Twisted Pair Cable

Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products; the Kramer: BC-DGKat524(CAT 5 24 AWG), the Kramer: BC-DGKat623(CAT 6 23 AWG cable), and the Kramer: BC-DGKat7a23

(CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built cables significantly outperform

regular CAT 5 / CAT 6 / CAT 7a cables.
