Graphic controller with a DVI port in your PC, SUN or Mac systems. It should support the maximum graphic
resolution of displays to be connected.
No special requirements for memory size, CPU speed and chipsets, if you’ve already properly installed your
DVI graphic controllers.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
The transmitter (Tx) module of the ST-1FODVI-SC is intended to be powered by your graphic card, depending on the
power supply capability of the graphic card you are using. If this is not possible, a separate power supply can be
ordered from NTI.
However, the receiver (Rx) module must be powered by the supplied AC power adapter.
Note: In general, most laptops or desktop PCs with PCI Express graphic card require using a separate 5VDC
power adapter for the transmitter.
