VM-4DKT Quick Start Guide
This guide HELPS you install and use your VM-4DKT for the first time.
Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/VM-4DKT to download the latest user manual and check if firmware
upgrades are available.
Step 1: Check what’s in the box
VM-4DKT 1:4 4K HDMI/DGKAT Distribution Amplifier Transmitter
We highly recommend using only Kramer UNIKAT cables with these products. If using 3
rd
party shielded CAT-6A cables, both ends of the
shield must be soldered to the connectors for the products to function properly. Do not use any jumpers, unshielded wall plates or mid-
span cable connections. These extenders are not compatible with HDBaseT technologies. Prior to signal extension, ensure that the
extension line cable is lying straight and not coiled.
Step 2: Get to know your VM-4DKT
