1.0 INTRODUCTION
The DVI-23xx-FO long-range DVI / HDMI Fiber Optic Cables feature integrated
electro-optical converters that provide unmatched signal delity with cable
lengths up to 100 meters (~ 328 ft.).
Designed to overcome the limitations of sending digital DVI and HDMI signals
over copper wires, DVIGear’s ber optic cables provide unmatched signal delity
and transparency over a wide range of input resolutions. These cables utilize
high-speed, electro-optical converters integrated within each connector. The
transmitter module converts the electrical signals from a DVI or HDMI source
device to optical pulses that are transported over the ber optic cables to the
receiver. The receiver module converts the optical pulses back to the original
DVI or HDMI signal for display on a monitor or large screen projector.
The cable material utilizes an innovative hybrid design that includes 4x glass
optical bers and 6x copper wires. This approach provides a high degree of
ruggedness and exibility. The transmitter and receiver modules use locking DVI
connectors and are shielded in high-impact, metal alloy enclosures that provide
maximum strength and durability. These features make these cables especially
well-suited for critical display applications that require long DVI or HDMI cable
runs with awless image quality.
Our professional digital distribution products have been serving the industry
for over ten (10) years. DVIGear offers a full line of high-quality Digital Matrix
Routers, Switchers, Splitters, Video Scalers, Up/Down/Cross Converters,
Format Converters, Analog-Digital Converters, as well as a wide range of longreach Digital Cables, Extenders, and Optical Transmission systems.
