Typical Application for the DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx
Features
Transmits dual link DVI-D signals over three CAT 5/5e/6/7 cables — Standard twisted
pair cables provide an economical, easily installed cable solution.
Long distance transmission — Signals are transmitted up to 100 feet (30 m), which is
significantly further than the 15 feet (5 m) specified for standard dual link DVI cables.
Local monitor output — The transmitter has a DVI-D output for connection to a local
monitor.
DDC routing to local or remote display — A two pole switch allows the user to
determine whether Display Data Channel (DDC) signals are routed to the local or the
remote display device.
EDID Minder™ — The EDID Minder maintains continuous EDID (Extended Display
Identification Data) communication with the attached source. This ensures that the DVI
source powers up correctly and maintains a proper video output, even if the display is off.
Control communications pass-through — The DVI DL 201 passes through RS-232 (two
way) or IR (one way) control signals, to a remote display.
Compact design — The transmitter is 1U high, a half rack wide, and 3 inches deep for
easy rack mounting near the source device.
The receiver is 1 inch high, a quarter rack wide and 3 inches deep, allowing multiple
mounting options near the display device.
Remote powering of receiver — A single power supply, connected to the transmitter, is
able to power both the transmitter and receiver.
