HDMI Ver. 1.3a Compatible switcher
VS3002 HDMI switching circuit fully transmits the signal of a present HDMI standard like the High-bit-rate audio signal and Deep Color and x.v.Color video signal.

6-Inputs / 2-Outputs
VS3002 equipped 6 HDMI inputs. It expands a limited AV Receiver terminals. For example, it realizes total 9 inputs by using 1 input of our Top-end AVR SR8002 which has 4 inputs. Two outputs are equipped for assuming to use with multiple display installation. (Both outputs are not active simultaneously.)

High reliability TMDS pass-through switching

VS3002 adopted the pass-through type switching based on the data transfer method in accordance with TMDS that secures high reliability. 2.25GHz wide video bandwidth design for Deep Color: To transmit the Deep Color video signal in 36 bits (12 bit x3), the bandwidth of 2.25GHz was covered.

Built-in Emphasis function re-shape the dulled signal
The signal equalizer is installed to correct the signal that becomes duller by the characteristic of the source product and the cable length. The equalizer function re-shapes the signal and output a high-quality HDMI signal to AVR and the display product.

Automatic Input Switching mode
The input port is switched automatically by sensing the power of the connected source product is turning on. This function reduces the operation on the VS3002 and makes system control simpler.

Discrete input select command by remote and front panel
Ordinal product uses up and down commands for switching the input but the VS3002 prepare the discrete input and output switching commands on the remote and front panel. These discrete commands make the input select operation quickly especially for the product which has many input and output ports.

RS-232C control
The VS3200 consider the compatibility with higher range control system (Crestron, AMX, RC9001…) and adopt bi-directional RS-232C control function. The state in the control terminal can be confirmed by feedback from VS3002 to say nothing of the achievement of a high operation of reliability. Bi-directional RS-232C control makes the product status available and the system operation flexible and reliable.

Auto IR command generate function for Marantz AVR and VP
The VS3002 equips auto IR command generator. By using this function, the VS3002 can be used virtually as a part of Marantz AVR (or VP). VS3002 generates "HDMI-1" function select commands for our AVR when VS3002 gets its input switching command. This function reduces the input switching operation for AVR (or VP) from the system control.

Full Width All-Metal Construction
Aluminum front panel and metal chassis gives "matching the appearance with other Marantz products", "securing enough space between each terminals" and "ensuring high stiffness for various installation conditions".
