1 Introduction
1.1 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 Velocity RGB-9 harnesses advanced fiber optic technology which means that image quality is not
compromised with problems such as frame dropping or content loss. The VelocityRGB-12 product
allows for component video.
Each system consists of a transmitter and a receiver connected by multi-mode or single mode 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 and Velocity RGB-12 require two fibers. The Velocity RGB-9 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, 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.

1.4 Theory of Operation
MRTS Technology
Thinklogical® VelocityRGB Extenders utilize breakthrough, patent-pending technology for transmission
and reception of DVI, keyboard, mouse, and high-speed data peripherals. This technology, known as
Multi Rate Transmission System (MRTS), provides end-to-end data transmission with unparalleled
performance. This new, unique optic platform enables multiple data streams to be transmitted long
distances over single or multiple fibers with complete reconstruction of the data clock at the destination
end point. The result is perfect synchronization with each transmitted stream.
MRTS is a highly reliable technology and delivers powerful benefits to our customers when combined
with our new SFP+ optics. The new MRTS Technology has the ability to transport every frame of a 1920
x 1200 @ 60Hz (or higher) video stream with no compression, along with all desktop peripherals
(keyboard, mouse, etc., including 480Mbps USB 2.0) with no perceptible latency. Moreover, these
signals can be transmitted distances from just a few meters up to 40 kilometers over single-mode or
multi-mode fibers.
MRTS allows for traditional AV implementations and video routing to be incorporated into the same
switch fabric, providing greater value, flexibility, performance and security. Additional unique capabilities
include the ability to support 6.25Gbps bandwidth per stream, between 50% and 100% higher than our
nearest competitors (typically 1.485Gbps to 3.2Gbps). This is significant because a single DVI stream
requires a 5.4Gbps data rate to accommodate the 165MHz of video data. Our competitor’s lower
bandwidth capability is generally manifested in either dropped frames or lower resolution associated with
compressing schemes. Not so with MRTS Technology.
Revision D 2 December 2012

Connecting to the Thinklogical RGB Extender
All physical connections to the product use industry-standard connectors. Non-supplied cables that may
be needed are commercially available. All connections are found on the rear of the unit.
3.1 Pluggable SFP+
The SFP+ Optical Module is an 8Gbs Short-Wavelength Transceiver designed for use in bi-directional
Fiber Optic Channel links. The modules are hot-pluggable and operate with 3.3VDC.
Always use dust caps to protect against damage when a fiber optic connector is not attached
to its coupling device (fiber optic equipment, bulkheads, etc.)
Figure 11: SFP+ Module; it is good practice to install dust plugs in unused SFP+s
Each SFP+ module is locked into its enclosure with a built-in latch handle that can be opened for
removal or locked for installation.
Dust Plug

The latch handle spans the two LC ports and arrows printed on the handle indicate which port is an
INPUT ( ) and which is an OUTPUT ( ).
Revision D 6 December 2012
3.2 Fiber Optic Cable
Requirements
Thinklogical recommends SX+ Laser Enhanced (50µm) fiber for your Velocity Extension System. Multimode fiber has the ability to extend up to a maximum of 1000m, where Single-mode fiber has the ability
to extend distances beyond 1000m.
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 50 micron,
terminated with an SC, ST or LC type fiber optic connector and no longer than 3280 running feet (1000
meters). Be careful not
radii to no less than 3 inches (76.2mm). Please refer to the Quick Start Guide included in Appendix
B.
Handling Fiber Optic Cable
Unlike copper cabling, fiber optic cable requires special handling. A small speck of dust or a
scratch to the ferrule tip (the end of the connector) can attenuate the optical signal so that it
becomes unusable.
to
kink or pinch the fiber optic cable as it is being installed, and keep all bend
Warning! The ends of the connectors (the ferrule) should never come in contact with
any foreign object, including fingertips.
Warning! Minimum bend radius must be 1.5”. Be careful not to pinch the fiber when
using ties.
3.3 RGB Video Extender Transmitter
If a DVI-A connection from the source is required, standard adapters are available from Thinklogical and
third party suppliers to make other combinations. (See Table 3)
FIGURE 7: Velocity RGB-9 Transmitter
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

local administrator to 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 could 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 be easily modified to support the SGI format. (Refer to Section 7.2.6 for step by
step instructions.)

In Dynamic mode, the DDC of the monitor connected to the RX is
read and stored on the TX. The CPU is informed of a change in
DDC and the monitor is read. This is useful when the CPU can be
turned on without a connection to the RX. Static mode is used to
maintain the current DDC regardless of monitor changes at the
RX. Pass-thru acts as a wire between the TX and RX and no
emulation takes place.
