Introduction
The EX-G048D receives and reconstructs (equalizing & re-clocking) a DVI signal and
distributes it to two identical DVI outputs and one RJ45 output. With the DVI over CAT5e
Mini-Extender (EX-G026A), the third output can carry DVI signal through CAT5e cable over
30m / 100ft at 1024x768. The DVI splitter can be perfectly cascaded with one another in order
to obtain more DVI outputs (at least 6 tiers). Each output can be turned on/off individually
through an IR remote control. It will also process (read & store) the EDID information sent over
the Data Display Channel (DDC).

*Plug in DVI cable first from the display and then plug in power cord. The recording process will be
initiated and the green LED lights. The green LED will turn off after the reading process is completed.
Warning!! Don’t plug in DVI source while the EX-G048D is writing default
EDID or recording EDID from displays. This will cause damage to the EDID
in the flash memory.
If you cannot boot your computer from the connected EX-G048D due to
the damaged EDID in the EX-G048D, please proceed the “Writing default
EDID” and then “Recording EDID of the connected display”. This will
enforce the EX-G048D to write the EDID from display.

Hardware Installation
zWe suggest you connect the monitor with the lowest resolution support to the DVI-OUT
1. (e.g. Suppose monitor A might support a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200, monitor B
supports a maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024 and monitor C supports a maximum
resolution of 1024 x 768, please connect monitor C to DVI-OUT 1).
zUnless you would like to use the default universal EDID, please set DIP switch 2 at off
position, which allows the EX-G048D to read the first monitor’s EDID.
1. Connect a monitor, a projector or other displays with DVI inputs by a male-to-male DVI
cable to EX-G048D DVI-OUT 1.
2. Connect the second display to the DVI-OUT 2.
3. Connect the third display by 1 CAT5e cable and the DVI over CAT5e Mini-Extender
(EX-G026A) through RJ45 connectors on both sides.
4. Plug 5V DC power adapter into power jack.
5. Connect a PC or other devices with DVI outputs to DVI Splitter DVI-IN.
