DVI & USB EXTENDER
Second generation extender to transmit
both full DVI video as well as transparent
USB over a single CATx cable
FEATURES
Full single link DVI extender
The ADDERLink X-DVI PRO extender
is designed to deliver full single link DVI
digital video resolutions up to 165 MPixels
per second. 165MPixels per second is the
maximum data rate available on single
link DVI connections, and is achieved
without the need to compress data in any
way. Resolutions supported by single link
DVI range from 640x480 @ 60 Hz (25
MPixels/s) through to 3840x2400 @ 17Hz
(164 MPixels/s).
USB transparent connection
Alongside fully un-compressed DVI video,
the ADDERLink X-DVI PRO also delivers
bidirectional USB (low speed / full speed)
data allowing you to extend any USB
device over 50 meters on the same CATx
cable.
This makes the X-DVI PRO perfect for
distributed workstations where you want
to reduce environmental concerns such
as heat and noise. A typical example of
this would be post production suites.
By centralising your workstations, you
can also extend operational life-span by
ensuring optimal temperature control, and
minimal physical disturbance.
Single CATx distribution
ADDERLink X-DVI PRO requires just
one CATx (CAT7a recommended) cable.
Other solutions available require two
cables to carry DVI and DDC EDID. The
X-DVIPRO delivers this alongside USB
data over a single CATx cable. Dependent
upon cable type, quality and connections
distances may vary. See technical
specification for detailed rules.
DVI-D digital video
The ADDERLink X-DVI PRO is specifically
designed to carry digital video over 50
meters. By maintaining the video in a
purely digital domain, no loss of quality
through D/A or A/D conversion will be
experienced, ensuring the display output
(LCD panel for example) is exactly the
same as the signal produced by the display
adapter (video card).
Extended profile DDC EDID
The ADDERLink X-DVI PRO carries
extended profile DDC EDID data from
your display device to the display adapter
to ensure that your system is configured
to deliver optimal video performance.
The extended profile DDC EDID is
particularly important when extending
video to high performance display devices.
This is essential for professional graphics
users such as post production, broadcast,
architecture, graphic design, medical
imaging, CAD or any other applications
where display performance is critical.
Interface/mains power options
The ADDERLink X-DVI PRO transmitter
can be powered directly via the USB link,
reducing cable clutter. If you prefer, a
mains power adapter is also available.
