MX 8x8 DVI Pro provides 24 pole "digital only” DVI-D connectors for output
connections. As standard DVI outputs, there can be used limited length cables,
since there is no output amplification applied. For using longer cable runs at
outputs, use fiber optical DVI cables or active DVI repeaters/extenders.

MX 8x8 DVI Pro reclocks the signal on all outputs. Signal reclocking is an essential
important procedure in digital signal transmission. After passing the reclocking
circuit, the signal becomes stable and jitter free, and can be transmitted over more
equipment like processors, or event controllers. Without reclocking there can be
seen sparkles, noise and jaggies on the image.

As special feature MX 8x8 DVI Pro on DDC +5V output (pin 14 on output
connectors) is able to supply 500 mA current to power fiber optical DVI cables.
Standard DVI outputs or VGA cards supply only 55 mA current on +5V output, thus
unable to power directly a fiber optical cable.
Info
MX 8x8 DVI Pro does not check if the connected sink (monitor, projector or other
equipment) supports Hotplug or EDID signals but outputs the selected signal
immediately after switch command.
