Kramer release In-CTRL switcher

The VP-727xl In-CTRL is equipped with dual scalers which offer preview and program output channels and can switch frame-to-frame between two sources.

The VP-727xl offers eight universal inputs each with 5 BNC connectors.  These universal inputs can accommodate composite video, s-Video, component video, RGsB and RGBHV video signals.  The VP-727xl also has two HDMI inputs.  Inputs 1 and 2 can be used either as universal inputs or as HDMI inputs.  The Preview and Program outputs are each available on three sets of output connectors; an HDMI connector, a 15-pin HD connector and a set of 5 BNC universal output connectors.  All the outputs are simultaneously active regardless of input type selected unless the HDMI connectors of inputs 1 and 2 are used with HDCP encrypted signals.  In that case, in accordance with the HDCP standard, the analog inputs are shut off and only the HDMI outputs will be available.

The VP-727xl incorporates Kramer's K-Storm scaling technology for full up and down graphics scaling and 3:2 and 2:2 pull down processing.  It automatically accepts and processes all variations of NTSC, PAL and SECAM signals, and the unit has multiple output resolution settings conforming to the most popular display standards in the market as well as 480p, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p HDTV output resolutions and one user definable output resolution setting.  Output signals are also selectable between the RGB and YUV color spaces and are simultaneously available on three different connector types - a set of 5 BNC connectors, a 15-pin HD connector and an HDMI connector - for both the Preview and the Program output channels.
