3 Overview

The VS-3232A is a high-performance 32x32 matrix switcher (router) for
analog balanced stereo audio signals. The unit can route any or all inputs to
any or all outputs simultaneously.

The VS-3232A features:
• Clean switching (noise free)
• Level control for each input and output
• An S/N ratio of over 100dB at +20dBu/1kHz and a linearity better than

0.1dB from -25dBu to +20dBu

• THD and noise below 0.03%
• A flat frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz (±0.1dB)
• The ability to operate as a standalone audio router or as a companion

router to the VP-3232V(xl)

• The ability when connected to the VP-3232V(xl), to operate in audio-follow-

video or breakaway mode

recalled and executed when needed. One "Default" setup can be executed
immediately by pressing the default button

• Front panel lockout

ASCII protocols (partial)

• A worldwide power supply,

100-240V AC on a

standard 19” rack mount

To achieve the best performance:
• Use only good quality connection cables to avoid interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise
levels (often associated with low quality cables)

• Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may

adversely influence signal quality and position your VS-3232A away from
moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
