INTRODUCTION
The
CV-147
DVI over Single CAT5 Direct Plug-in Extender
extends your PC DVI
transmission distance up to 60m (200ft) with resolution 1024x768 @60Hz. With CV-147, users can
transmit high quality digital video of PC applications through one cost effective CAT-5/5e LAN cable to the
remote monitor or projector, instead of using short and expensive DVI cables. With embedded EDID
inside the extender, your PC will continue to send the digital video even when the monitor is not
connected. The user can then disconnects the monitor, place it in a remote location and reconnect it
without rebooting the operating system.
The CV-147 includes two identical units: transmitting and receiving units. The transmitting unit is
connected to your PC DVI output and the receiving unit is connected to the monitor or projector. While
successfully connected, the two LED lights on each RJ-45 connector will blink. The transmission distance
between the transmitting and receiving units can be up to 60m (200ft) under XGA (1024x768@60Hz) or
25m (80ft) under UXGA (1920x1200@60Hz). With compact size and requiring no power, CV-147 is the
most cost effective choice for bringing your impressive digital video to the remote display.

1. The length depends on the characteristics and quality of the cables. Higher resolutions
and longer transmission distances require low skew cables (<25ns/100m) for best
performance. Unshielded CAT6 with metal RJ-45 connectors is recommended.
2. From time to time, there might not be enough current CV-147 can extract from DVI
+5V pin! When users encounter such a situation, LED not blinking, one typical Type A USB
to mini USB cable can help to solve this under power issue instantly!
