Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The DVI Extender transmits high-quality video signal formats and audio to a remote
screen, without compromising the original media quality. The DVI Extender delivers
a full HD resolution signal through one fiber optic cable up to 1.5 kilometers. It’s an
ideal solution for systems where high-resolution and high-quality video signals need
to be displayed over long distances.
Connect the extender in a point-to-point configuration to transmit high-resolution
video to a remote display. The transmitter module is compatible with all kinds of
display devices. It reads and stores the display's EDID information to prevent EDID
handshake problems. Installing the extender is easy and more flexible than ever.
Connect the extender in a point-to-multipoint configuration to distribute
high-resolution video to up to 32 displays. Use the 2-, 4-, and 8-port splitters to
achieve flawless video distribution and extenstion. All splitters are passive devices
and do not require external power.
Typical applications include public informational displays in elevators, trains,
subways, airports, shopping malls, museums, or hotels.
2.2 Features
• Delivers high-quality multimedia content in real time from a media player to
a distant screen while maintaining crystal-clear video. A high-definition video
signal from a single player to a display can be extended up to 1.5 km without
electrical support for splitters. The DVI Extender increases the range of the display
network and enables you to set up your screens at any locations without
sacrificing the quality of media.
• Supports audio extension. The DVI Extender transmits both audio and video over
a single-strand fiber optic cable.
• Extends all DVI VESA standards all the way up to a 1920 x 1200 resolution.
• Offers programmable EDID. The transmitter reads and stores the display's EDID
information and provides a handshaking capability for any type of display with
different resolutions.
• Consumes very little power. Transmitters and receivers consume 3 W or less for
transmitting and receiving Full HD resolution video signals and CD-quality audio.
• Split, extend, and distribute DVI video and stereo audio using the passive fiber
splitters.

The DVI Extender is the best system to use when extending high-quality DVI video
and stereo audio over long distances. The extender includes a transmitter module
and a receiver module.
The transmitter module encodes the audio/video signals into an optical signal and
the receiver module decodes the optical signal back into the original audio/video
signal.
In point-to-point transmission, each display needs a transmitter and a receiver to
extend the source.
