IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “Dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a
risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user
to the presence of important operating and maintenance (Servicing) instructions
in the literature ac-companying the product.

•EN60065 Product Safety
•EN55103-1 Electromagnetic Interference Class A (Emission)
•EN55103-2 Electromagnetic Susceptibility (Immunity)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant
to the European Union EMC directive. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at his own expense.
INFORMATION TO USERS IN THE U.S.A.

WARNING
Never look directly into an optical fiber. Non-reversible damage to the eye can
occur in a matter of milliseconds.
"
Do not hook up the 2407RGBR/DVIR DWDM cards directly with a short fiber optic
cable. The 2407RGBR/DVIR DWDM cards produce +7dBm of power, which will
damage the receiver if connected directly.

2407RGBR/DVIR DVI and RGB Video/Audio Portable Fiber Receiver
Revision 1.1 2407RGBR/DVIR - 1
1. OVERVIEW
The 2407RGBR RGB Fiber Receiver extends one digital (DVI) or analog (RGB) video display connection
over a single fiber optic link with display resolutions up to WUXGA (1920 x 1200). The DVI-I connector
combines analog and digital display technologies, promoting optimal compatibility with different display
types. Two optional analog audio outputs are also available, as well as optional serial data, USB,
keyboard, and mouse. These options facilitate complete remote computer control and display, including
the ability to connect USB peripherals. The 2407RGBR is designed to operate with a companion
2407RGBT transmitter.
The 2407DVIR provides the same features listed above, but only accepts a digital (DVI) input.
Monitoring and control of card status and card parameters are provided locally, at the card-edge, or
remotely via VistaLINK®capability. The 2407RGBR/DIVIR has a wide-band optical input and can accept
any wavelength between 1270nm and1610nm.
Features:
•Digital (DVI) and analog (RGB) display technologies are supported through one interface on the
2407RGBR
•Available in a variety of fiber optic and coaxial versions
•VESA video resolutions supported up to WUXGA (1920x1200)
•Two optional analog audio channels
•Optional keyboard and mouse
•Optional USB interface
•Full 24 bits per pixel colour resolution
•Convenient audio monitoring headphone jack with adjustable volume
•Full-bandwidth 3 Gb/s signal transport over fiber – no compression or sub-sampling
•Ideal for use with high resolution LCD, plasma or projection screens
•All configuration settings are controllable through the card-edge user interface, or VistaLINK®
•Comprehensive signal and card status monitoring via four-digit card-edge display, or VistaLINK®
•Wide-band optical input is compatible with standard, CWDM, or DWDM transmission schemes
•Compatible with multi-mode and single-mode fiber
•SC/PC, ST/PC, or FC/PC fiber connector options
•Fully hot-swappable from front of frame
