Overview  
The KramerTOOLS 4x1V and 4x1VB are high-quality 4x1 mechanical switchers  
designed for composite video signals using RCA or BNC connectors. They accept  
up to four inputs and let you select any input to be routed to one output using  
buttons located on the front panel. High-quality switching components ensure  
minimal crosstalk and a high bandwidth of 400MHz (-3dB).  
The entirely passive design of the 4x1V and 4x1VB eliminates the need for a  
power supply. Unselected inputs are automatically terminated into a 75resistor.

Connecting and Operating the 4x1V and  
4x1VB  
To connect the 4x1V and 4x1VB as illustrated in the example in Figure 2:  
1. Connect up to four composite video sources to the IN 1 to IN 4 connectors  
(for example, composite video players).  
You do not have to connect all inputs.  
2. Connect the OUTPUT connector to a composite video acceptor (for  
example, a composite video recorder).  
Note: The 4x1V uses RCA connectors. The 4x1VB uses BNC  
connectors.  
i
