The GefenPRO DVI FM1500 Optical Extender with Recordable EDID
The GefenPRO DVI FM1500 Optical DVI Extender with Recordable EDID
extends a DVI source up to 3280 feet (1000 meters) using single-mode ber optic
cable. Recordable EDID programming provides fast integration and compatibility
with the input video source and the display. Resolutions up to 1920 x 1200
(WUXGA) at 60 Hz are supported.
How It Works
Connect the Sender unit to the DVI source. Connect the Receiver unit to the DVI
display. Use a single strand of SC-terminated ber optic cable to connect the
Sender unit to the Receiver unit. Connect the included 5V DC power supply to
the Receiver unit and connect the power adapter to an available electrical outlet.
If the source does not supply enough power to the Sender module, connect the
other included power supply.
