The Gefen DVI Extender 1FO
The DVI ber optic pigtail module extender with HDCP support extends DVI up to
3300 feet (1000 meters) using single-strand 50/125µm multimode (OM2/OM3.)
SC-terminated ber optic cable to a supporting display at 1920 x1200 WUXGA
resolution. Optical signal transmission provides galvanic isolation and immunity
to electromagnetic interference compared to similar copper based extension
modules.
The pigtail design of the Sender and Receiver modules relieves stress and clutter
on the source and display connector panels. Their compact design makes them
ideal for tting neatly behind equipment for a clean installation, making it a great
way to easily extend DVI.
How It Works
The Sender pigtail end plugs into the DVI source. The Receiver pigtail end
plugs into the display. Connect a single-strand 50/125µm multimode (OM2/OM3)
SC-terminated ber optic cable from the Sender module to the Receiver module
and a vibrant Hi-Def picture will appear on your display.
