Product Overview

Industry standard RGB video formats up to

165

MHz are

supported over multi

-

mode or single

-

mode

fiber. Resolutions

which fit into the

165

MHZ bandwidth will be flawlessly transported

from end to end. The V

elocity RGB

-

9 harnesses advanced fiber optic technology which means

that image quality is not compromised with problems such as frame

dropping or content loss.

Powe

red by Thinklogical's cutting edge, patent

-

pending MRTS (

M

ultiRateTransmission

S

ystem) technology, this digital video extension system transports every frame of a video

stream seamlessly, with no compression, or dropped frames. In addition, all high spee

d

peripherals function with no latency. Leveraging

standard SFP+ transceivers, the system allows

for the usage of either multi

-

mode or single

-

mode fiber optic cable.

Each system consists of a transmitter and a receiver connected by multi

-

mode or single mo

de

fiber optic cable. The transmitter unit connects to an analog video source with a suitable cable

and the receiver unit provides connections to the display device. A +5V DC power supply is

required on both the transmitter and receiver.

The Velocity RGB

-

9 requires two fibers. The transmitter supports RGB video formats up to

165MHz. In

addition

, the Velocity RGB

-

9 has a local RGB video display port on the transmitter

and is compatible with all Thinklogical Velocity fiber video receivers (except Dual

-

Link D

VI

versions), whether RGB or DVI. The receiver converts the video

signal back from optical to RGB

formats. The Velocity RGB

-

9 receiver with dual RGB outputs is offered for distributing the video

source to two displays, eliminating the need for an external

distribution amp.

Laser Information

CAUTION:

In order to avoid possible exposure to laser

energy, it is good practice to

attach the fiber optic cables prior to apply

ing power to the

RGB Video

Extender

.

If the fiber optic cable should become disconnected, DO NOT

attempt to look into the cable or the panel mounted connector.

.1 FiberCable

Fiber optic cable must

run between the location of the Transmitter unit (near your CPU) and the

Receiver unit (near your desktop devices). The standard multi

-

mode fiber optic cable must be

50micron, terminated with an SC

, ST

or LC type fiber optic connector and no longer than

3280

running feet (1000 meters). Be careful not

to

kink or pinch the fiber optic cable as it is being

installed, and keep all bend radii to no less than 3 inches (76.2mm).

Please refer to the Quick

Start Guide included in

Appendix A

The CPU and the TX Connector

Video connections to the CPU are made between the video output card of the CPU and the TX

VGA

connector labeled “FROM CPU” (closest to fiber connectors). The additional video

connector is for a local administrator t

o view the video output at the TX unit.

The analog VGA inputs are converted to a fiber optic suitable form and transmitted to the RX

unit.

Modifying the Analog RGB Video Parameters

It is possible for one resolution to have different video timings, which c

ould cause a less than

perfect display on the remote side. For example, take 1280x1024x60 Hz. The VESA standard

has 1688 pixels in one line, whereas a SGI format has 1680 pixels. The transmitter lookup table

is configured for the VESA standard, but can b

e easily modified to support the SGI format.

(Refer to Section 7.2.6 for step by step

instructions.)
