Kramer VS-88H2A 8x8 4K HDR HDCP 2.2 Matrix Switcher with Analog &am...
Product Overview
The Kramer VS-88H2A is an 8x8 4K HDR HDCP 2.2 matrix switcher with analog and digital audio routing, designed for large conference rooms, boardrooms, and corporate campus AV systems. It routes any of eight 4K HDMI inputs to any combination of eight HDMI outputs while providing independent audio routing for both analog and digital audio signals. The VS-88H2A is suited for installations where independent audio distribution is required alongside video switching, such as multi-room corporate AV systems with separate audio DSP zones.
Product Description
The audio routing capability of the VS-88H2A sets it apart from standard HDMI matrix switchers. Analog and digital audio outputs can be routed independently of the video signal, allowing AV designers to send audio from any source to any audio destination without being constrained by video routing decisions. This is particularly valuable in boardroom and conference center environments where audio feeds to a DSP, recording system, or overflow speakers need to follow different routing than the display signal. 4K HDR and HDCP 2.2 support ensures compatibility with current UHD sources and protected content workflows. Control is available via RS-232, Ethernet, and front panel, integrating with Crestron, AMX, and Kramer control systems.
