The Gefen 32x32 DVI Matrix
The GefenPRO 32x32 DVI Matrix is a modular design for professionals. Each input can
route different resolutions at any time to any display by switching from the included IR
Remote, IP control, RS-232, or by using the front-panel push buttons. The front-panel
display provides information on routing status. Removable input and output modules and
dual (redundant) hot-swappable power supplies allow the Matrix to be used in the most
demanding environments, offering maximum flexibility for all applications.
How It Works
The GefenPRO 32x32 DVI Matrix has 32 DVI inputs and 32 DVI outputs. Using DVI cables,
connect 32 sources to the DVI input ports on the GefenPRO 32x32 DVI Matrix. Connect the
GefenPRO 32x32 DVI Matrix’s 32 DVI outputs to the monitors. Connect an Ethernet cable
from the network to the RJ-45 connector to use the built-in IP interface to control routing,
EDID, and other commands. Connect an RS-232 cable from an RS-232 control device to
control the Matrix via RS-232. Plug in the power cord and power on the GefenPRO 32x32
DVI Matrix. The connected monitors will show video according to the routing selection.
