VM1600A to route 4 HDMI sources over long distances via optical extenders, the VE883 to 4 HDMI-enabled displays. These I/O boards are able to route uncompressed 4K signal to the VM1600A from up to 300 m (VM7584K1 and VM8584K1) or 10 km (VM7584K2 and VM8584K2) away over duplex fiber optic cables.
Page 16 Modular Matrix Solution User Manual The VM7814 / VM8814 is a 4-Port 4K HDMI input/output board that works with VM1600A to route 4 HDMI sources to 4 displays. The VM7814 / VM8814 is equipped with 4 input/output ports to allow for stereo audio embedding and audio extraction.
Page 17 Setup is fast and easy; install the modular I/O boards by sliding them into the VM1600A’s rear panel slots, then plug the device cables into the appropriate ports on the I/O boards and your ready. This solution can be connected to the network through the VM1600A’s LAN port, allowing the installation to take advantage of internal Cat 5 Ethernet wiring built into most modern commercial buildings.
