Introduction

Thank you for purchasing LevelOne DVI broadcaster series products. This DVI broadcaster
extends your DVI-D and audio signal over Cat5/5e/6 and 4-wire phone cable. If you are
using short range receiver (ADE-8001) to receive the DVI-D signal, the extended distance
is up to 15m with 1024x768 resolution; and if using long range receiver (ADE-8002), the
extended DVI-D distance can reach the distance up to 70m with 1024x768 resolution. You
can use the audio receiver to extend audio over 4-wire phone cable to provide a multimedia
broadcasting.

Take the advantage of Cat5/5e/6 cable, LevelOne DVI broadcaster series can simplify the
installation, extend the AV signal, and centralize the multimedia server. Many nice features
have been designed into these units, the single-port transmitter (ADE-8201) is the smallest
one in the world and can connect to DVI port without using another DVI cable. For single
port receiver (ADE-8002), you can fix the unit very easily through its magnetic pad and
metal plate. The multi-port unit (ADE-8202/8204/8208) is the first multi-port DVI extender
over Cat5/5e/6, it allows you to extend DVI signals with reasonable cost and easy
installation.

LevelOne DVI broadcaster series is the perfect solution for malls, plazas, stations and
supermarkets to display high resolution and crystallized images. It’s easy to maintain and
reduce installation cost.

Cat5/5e/6 cable, and RJ-11 Audio Transmitter/Receiver (ADE-8011) to receive the audio
signal from 4-wire phone cable (Audio function not included in ADE-8201)

8. Transmitter builds in DVI monitor’s EDID simulation, computer can boot up DVI signal
without connecting local monitor, initial pre-set range of frequency up to 1920x1200

9. LED status to indicate the DVI activity

10. Stackable capacity to expand the AV broadcasting

11. Provides magnetic pad and attachable metal plate for ADE-8002 to ease the installation
