About the DVI DA Plus Series
These Digital Visual Interface (DVI) Distribution Amplifiers accept one single link DVI-D input and distribute four (DVI DA4 Plus),
six (DVI DA6 Plus), or eight (DVI DA8 Plus) single link DVI-D output signals.
All three models use the Extron EDID Minder

The EDID Lock feature allows EDID information to be retained, even after cycling power to the unit or changing the output
displays.
The DVI DA4 Plus is 1U high and half a rack wide. The DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus are both 1U high and a full rack wide. All
three models offer a variety of mounting options.
