OVERVIEW
With BLACK BOX
®
Multi DVI Extenders, you can link two or
more DVI video displays together. What's more, you don't
have to compromise resolution for distance. You get picture-
perfect video reproduction at distances up to 6.2 miles
(10 kilometers) using single-mode fiber, up to 600 feet
(183 meters) using CAT6 UTP or STP cable, or up to 500 feet
(152 meters) using CAT5e UTP or STP cable. Resolution levels
meet specifications for all VESA standards to UXGA (1600 x
1200) at 60 Hz and all HDTV progressive formats, including
1080p (single-link).
With the daisychainable models, you get nearly unlimited
distance from end-to-end! At one end of the connection is a
Multi DVI Transmitter. In between are almost unlimited
numbers of Multi DVI Receivers with either copper or single-
mode fiber linking them (and copper and fiber receivers can
be linked in the same daisychain). At the other end of the
connection is the last receiver. A high-resolution video display
or video display plus audio connects to each transceiver along
the daisychain.
We also offer transmitters and receivers with pollable
RS-232 ports. WIth these, you can control addresses for either
single receivers or groups of receivers in the daisychain and
control them from a PC.

Technically Speaking
Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) video standard is based
on transition-minimized differential signaling (TMDS). In a
typical single-line digital signal, voltage is raised to a high
level and decreased to a low level to create transitions that
convey data. To minimize the number of transitions needed to
transfer data, TMDS uses a pair of signal wires. When one wire
goes to a high-voltage state, the other goes to a low-voltage
state. This balance increases the data-transfer rate and
improves accuracy.
Although there are four types of DVI connectors, only
DVI-D and DVI-I are commonly used for monitors. DVI-D is a
digital-only connector. DVI-I supports both digital and analog
RGB connections.
