he Gefen DVI 3600 H
D
The DVI 3600 HD allows you to operate a single DVI-compliant computer from
two workstations, by extending DVI, USB 2.0, analog audio, and RS-232 from the
omputer to the remote workstation. USB peripherals can be placed at either of
the two locations, by the Sender or Receiver unit.
How It Works
The DVI 3600 HD system consists of a Sender and a Receiver unit. The Sender
onnects to the computer’s DVI-compliant video card output, analog audio jack,
-232 port, and USB port. The DVI 3600 HD Receiver connects to the remote
display and peripherals. Four strands of LC fi ber optic cable connect the Sender
and Receiver together
.
The DVI 3600 HD has two modes of USB operation. When in local mode, the
omputer sees USB devices connected to the Sender. When in remote mode,
the computer sees USB devices connected to the Receiver. Modes are switched
sing a switch on the front panel of the Sender.

•LC terminated fi ber optic cables (2 pairs) are required for operation of the
DVI 3600 HD system.
• The DVI 3600 HD relies on either Virtual DDC or a locally connected display
on the sender unit) for display information (EDID). In Virtual DDC mode the
ender unit will store the remotely connected display’s EDID. This EDID will
eed to be recorded onto the sender unit. See page 12 for instructions on
sing the Virtual DDC feature.
• When using a local display, ensure that the remote display can displa
y
ommon resolutions and timings that are in the EDID of the local display.
The reverse applies when using the Virtual DDC mode: The local display in
Virtual DDC mode must be able to accept common resolutions and timings
that are in the EDID of the remote display.
• This device will accept both singlemode and multimode fi ber optic cables.
• This device will accept both 50μm and 62.5μm multi-mode fiber optic cable
types.
