INTRODUCTION The Gefen DVI•1500 allows a single link video signal to be extended over long distances by using a multimode with LC termination. Fiber Optics technology allows the DVI•1500 to carry video signals over long distances that would not be possible with traditional CAT5 extension. The use of fiber optic cabling protects the video signal from electromagnetic interference (EMI) which can degrade the video signal.
FEATURES Features • Extends any DVI (digital visual interface) compliant device up to 1640 feet/500 meters (330 feet with HDCP) from the computer • Uses a four-strand multimode LC-LC fiber optic cable for video signals • Uses one CAT-5 cable for DDC and control signals • Eliminates computer noise where you work • Supports resolutions up to 1080p, 2K, and 1920 x 1200 • Supports DDWG standard for DVI compliant monitors • HDCP compliant Includes: (1) DVI 1500S Sender unit (1) DVI 1500R Receiver
