Theory of Operation
MRTS Technology
Thinklogical VX Routers ® are used together as a system with our Thinklogical Velocity Extenders ® utilizing
breakthrough, patent-pending technology for transmission and reception of DVI, keyboard, mouse, and high-
speed data peripherals. This technology, known as Multi Rate Transmission System (MRTS), provides end-to-
end data transmission with unparalleled performance.
This new, unique optic platform enables multiple data streams to be transmitted long distances over
single or multiple fibers with complete reconstruction of the data clock at the destination end point.
The result is perfect synchronization with each transmitted stream.

MRTS is a highly reliable technology and delivers powerful benefits to our customers when combined with our
new SFP+ optics. The new MRTS Technology has the ability to transport every frame of a 1920 x 1200 @
60Hz (or higher) video stream with no compression, along with all desktop peripherals (keyboard, mouse, etc.,
including 480Mbps USB 2.0) with no latency. Moreover, these signals can be transmitted distances from just a
few meters over multi-mode fibers or up to 40 kilometers over single-mode fibers.
MRTS allows the incorporation of traditional AV implementations and video routing into the same switch fabric,
providing greater value, flexibility, performance and security. Additional unique capabilities include the ability
to support 6.25Gbps bandwidth per stream, between 50% and 100% higher than our traditional systems
(typically 1.485Gbps to 3.2Gbps). This is significant because a single DVI stream requires a 5.4Gbps data rate
to accommodate the 165MHz of video data. Traditional te
chnology’s lower bandwidth capability is generally
manifested in either dropped frames or lower resolution associated with compressing schemes. Not so with
MRTS Technology.
