The Gefen DVI RS-232 over Fiber

The Gefen DVI RS232 over Fiber is a perfect solution for extending and
managing control systems, touchscreen or digital signage applications at great
distances. The DVI RS232 sends DVI, RS232, and IR signals up to 1000 feet
using a single CAT5 and single SC fi ber. RS232 and IR signals are transmitted
over a single CAT5 cable while the DVI signal is transmitted over a single SC
fi ber.

How It Works

The DVI RS232 over fi ber system consists of a Sender and a Receiver unit.
The Sender connects to the computer’s DVI-compliant video card output, and
RS-232 port. The DVI RS232 over fi ber Receiver connects to the remote display
and RS232 and IR devices. One strand of SC fi ber optic cable and a CAT5 cable
connects the Sender and Receiver together.
