1.0 INTRODUCTION

The DVI-5312b and DVI-5314b are high-performance digital repeaters with one (1)
DVI input and either two (2) or four (4) independent, re-clocked DVI outputs. All
inputs and outputs are fully HDMI v1.3 compatible, enabling full interoperability
with both DVI and HDMI sources and displays. These units accept a single DVI or
HDMI input signal, which is de-serialized, buffered and applied to independent DVI
compatible HDMI v1.3 transmitters at each output. This re-clocking process
ensures a substantial reduction in jitter, which results in crisp, stable images.
These units support a full array of DVI and HDMI v1.3 features, making them
perfect solutions for high-quality digital signal distribution in professional systems.

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 long reach
Digital Cables, Extenders, and Optical Transmission systems.
