Dual-Link DVI 1x2 Splitter
Introduction
DVIGear model DVI-7440 is a Dual-Link DVI splitter with built-in EDID Management. It is a versatile solution
for the distribution of high resolution DVI signals in a wide range of display applications. The DVI-7440 is
housed in a rugged metal enclosure that can be rack mounted or used stand-alone.
The DVI-7440 includes Advanced EDID Management, which can emulate any DVI display. This feature
enables source devices to provide continuous video output even when the attached display is disconnected or
powered down. This unit includes eighty (80) user-selectable EDID memories. EDID memories from 01-50
are factory preset and the memories 51-79 are user-programmable. Memory 00 is transparent, which allows
the EDID of the display connected to OUTPUT1 to be copied directly to the connected DVI source device.
Using DVIGear’s Easy EDID Creator software, users can create their own EDID by completing four simple
steps. Experienced users can use DVIGear’s Advanced EDID Editor PC software to manage every possible
facet of EDID settings. New or modified EDID info can be uploaded to the memory of the DVI-7440 using a
convenient mini-USB port.
