1 Product overview

DVI-SDI-2-SFP will convert DVI-R or HDMI signal into an optical SDI. Used together with
DVI-SDI-2-SFP this card can be used as an optical extender for transporting DVI signal.

The dual optical transmitter is SFP based and can be 1310nm for short haul application or
18 channel CWDM transmitter. The CWDM option can be combined with Flashlink CWDM­18 filter making it possible to transport 18 DVI signals over one fiber.
