The Gefen DVI•1500 allows a single link video signal to be extended over long distances by using multimode LC-LC fi ber optic cable. Fiber Optics technology allows the DVI•1500 to carry video signals over long distances that would not be possible with traditional CAT5 extension. The use of fi ber optic cabling protects the video signal from electromagnetic interference (EMI) which can degrade the video signal.
How It Works
The DVI•1500S sender unit sits next to your computer, set-top box or DVD player source. Cables supplied with the DVI•1500 connect your DVI source to the send unit. The DVI•1500R receive unit sits next to your DVI display - up to 1640 feet (330 feet with HDCP) away. The display plugs into the back of the DVI•1500R receiver unit. One CAT-5 cable and a multi mode LC fi ber optic cable (4 strand) connect the DVI•1500S and the DVI•1500R units to each other.
INTRODUCTION

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE DVI 1500
50 or 62.5 micron multi-mode fi ber optic cable is required for operation of the DVI 1500.
Maximum extension range of 330 feet (100 meters) when the source • requires HDCP. One CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT6 cable is used to transmit DDC and HDCP data back to the source.
Maximum range of 1640 feet (500 meters) when the source does not require • HDCP. This scenario does not require the CAT-5, CAT5e or CAT-6 cable if the source does not require DDC information. If DDC is required, the use of an EDID storage device (part# EXT-DVI-EDIDN, EXT-DVI-EDIDP) can be used to transmit DDC information back to the source.
HDCP compliant• Compatible with all DVI and HDMI* displays.
NOTE: *When used with a HDMI to DVI adapter

CONNECTING AND OPERATING THE DVI 1500
How To Connect The DVI 1500
Connect the DVI source to the DVI 1500 sender unit using the supplied DVI 1. cable.
Connect a user supplied CA T-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable to the sender unit.2. Connect four user supplied multi-mode LC terminated fi ber optic cables into 3.
DVI 1500 sender unit.
NOTE: 50 or 62.5 micron multi-mode fi ber optic cable is required for operation of the DVI 1500.
Connect the other end of the CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable into the DVI 4. 1500 receiver unit.
Connect the other ends of all four multi-mode LC terminated fi ber optic 5. cables into the DVI 1500 receiver unit.
NOTE: Please take careful note of the labeling above each fi ber optic port on both the sending and receiving DVI 1500 units. The most common user error is to mis-match the fi ber optic cable connections on each end, which results in no video being transmitted.
Connect the display to the DVI 1500 receiver unit using a user supplied DVI 6. cable.
Connect the included 5V DC power supplies into both the DVI 1500 sending 7. and receiving units.
Power on the display, followed by the source.8.
No further adjustments are necessary to operate the DVI 1500.

Gefen has specifi cally engineered their products to work with the TIA/EIA-568-B specifi cation. Please adhere to the table below when fi eld terminating cable for use with Gefen products. Failure to do so may produce unexpected results and reduced performance.
CAT-5, CAT-5e, and CAT-6 cabling comes in stranded and solid core types. Gefen recommends using solid core cabling. CAT-6 cable is also recommended for best results.
Each cable run must be one continuous run from one end to the other. No splices or use of punch down blocks.
