This Cobalt Analog Video Distribution Amplifier Card is a modular frame front DA card providing a 1x8 distribution while trim controls on the front allow gain adjustment. Card jumpers allow setting the input as differential (floating ground) or single-ended, AC or DC coupled, and hi-Z looping or card-terminated.

1x8 DA Frame Front Card    Gain Trim Controls on the Front    Differential or Single-Ended Input    AC or DC Coupled Input    Hi-Z Looping or Card-Terminated Input

• Multi-mode input provides differential or single-ended input, and Hi-Z looping or card-terminated operation
• Signal path can be set as DC or AC coupled
• User adjustable gain with easily accessible control on front of the card edge
• User-selectable input clamping (none, fast, or slow clamping selectable)
• Remote monitoring via optional DashBoard software or OGCP-9000 Remote Control Panel

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this be used for Time Code Distribution?

A: This can be used to distribute tri-level sync, but not time code specifically.

Q: 2. How far can this push a signal per output? Is there model that does 100?

A: An HDMI single in general only can go around 35 feet before the signal degrades. The first option you would have is to use a unit like this with HDMI extender kits that work with Ethernet cables. A second option is to purchase a DA that outputs HDMI over Ethernet right out of the box. Kramer makes such a DA that has 4 HDMI outputs and works with Twisted Pair Receivers, those also use Cat6 cables.

Q: 3. Can someone tell me whether the input on this Comprehensive CDA-VGA104HD is a male or female port? Thanks.

A: Input and output are female on the Comprehensive CDA-VGA104HD because a VGA cable is male on both side.

Q: 4. Can an electret condenser microphone work with this unit?

A: No, the RDL ST-DA3 1 x 3 Line-Level Distribution Amplifier is for line-level audio only. It does not have a mic input or the ability to supply voltage to a condenser microphone. You would need to use a separate mic preamp or mixer to connect the mic, then connect the output from the preamp or mixer to the input on the amp.

Q: 5. What is the default EDID resolution?

A: The VM-2HXLs EDID Native resolution is 1280x720p at 60hz.

Q: 6. Will this provide a clean signal to run a 200 foot cable?

A: I've never tried one that long. It's worked great on sorter runs that we use. Are's are typically 50 to 100 foot cables.

Q: 7. Will this splitter support 59.94hz?

A: According to C2G this spillter supports 3840 X 2160 at 30Hz 4:4:4 along with 3840 X 2160 at 60Hz 4:2:0. It does work with 60Hz, but at a reduced color space only.

Q: 8. It seems like this would work with a laptop. One output going to a video switcher and the second to a projector. Has anyone tried the Kramer DA in this type of workflow? Thanks!

A: Yes, this will work for that set up.

Q: 9. This Kramer claims to boost HDMI signal to increase cable length. To what length? From reviewer comments it seems the cable can additively play a part in boost distance (ie boosted distance + cable capability = total distance).

A: Absolutely. I would not consider a DA a booster but only a DA. For installation I would install the DA as close to the source as possible, no more than a 6' cable and then no more than 50' cable on each output. It is very important to use use high quality cables with any HDMI installation. If you need to go further consider using a twisted pair Rx/Tx setup for best results.

Q: 10. Hello, about our SD1141, why the led light goes from green to blue after a couple of minutes then the video suddenly drops? How am I going to resolve this issue?
