and if not installed and used pro perly, that is, in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions, may cause inter ference to radio communication.
It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing
device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules,
which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause inter ference, in which case the
user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise

Chapter 2: Overview
2. Over view
2.1 Introduction
The Extended Range DVI- D Extender extends your PC DVI transmission distance
up to 330 ft. (100 m) at up to 1920 x 1200 or 1080p resolution. With the
extender, users can transmit high quality digital video from PC applications over
one inexpensive CAT5e/6 /7 LAN cable to a remote monitor or projector, instead
of using short and expensive DVI cables. You can disconnect the monitor, place
it in a remote location, and reconnect it without rebooting the operating system. The XR DVI Extender also suppor ts serial port RS -232 (T XD and RXD )
control.
The extender includes two compact units: a transmitter and a receiver. The
transmitter unit connects to your PC DVI output and serial port, such as COM1,
and the receiver unit connects to a monitor with serial control (such as touch
panels). While successfully connected, the two LED lights on the RJ-45 connector will blink.
2.2 Features
• Complies with DV I 1.0 standard.
• Supports ED ID and HDCP bypass.
• Extends the transmission length from the sources up to 330 ft. (100 m) at
1920 x 1200 or 1080p resolutions.
• Features auto equalization.
• Supports HDTV resolutions and VESA standards.
• Supports serial port RS -232 (T XD and RXD) control.
• Direct plug-in at TX and wall-mounting with screws at RX.
2.3 What’s Included
Your package should contain the following items. If anything is missing or
damaged, contact Black Box Technical Suppor t at 724-746-5500 or
info@ blackbox.com.

Chapter 4: Cable
4. Cable
1. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of LAN cables, the type
of HDMI sources, and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid
LAN cables (usually bulk cable (100 ft. [300 m]) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded LAN cables (usually in patch cord form). Shielded STP
cables are better suited than unshielded UTP cables. For long extension users,
choose solid core LAN cables.
2. We recommend using EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for LAN cables for
better performance.
3. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in
LAN cable, you can use shielded LAN cables to improve EMI problems, which
are worse in long transmissions.
