Digital Video Extension System -
Each of the Thinklogical™ DVI Extender systems are designed for high resolution video extension applications such as remote projection centers, theaters and assembly halls, and for secure
computer installations. It is now possible to position the monitor or projector in any setting from office to lecture hall to boardroom while keeping the computer secure in a remote, controlled location.
Single Fiber Operation
The system will operate with a single fiber
from the Transmitter (Tx) to the Receiver
(Rx). In this mode the Tx can transmit video
and status LED information to the Rx via
Fiber L1. The Rx cannot send information to
the Tx and the Rx buttons are inoperative.
Also, DDC information can only be gathered
from the Tx local port or the Thinklogical
default EDID table (see DVI Extender
Manual, page 12).
Dual Fiber Operation
In this mode, in addition to the information
transmitted through L1, information is
transmitted from the Rx to the Tx through
Fiber L2. Providing a back channel allows
the Rx to modify the DDC configuration via
the DDC Mode buttons and send it to the Tx.
DDC information exchange allows the PC to
gather information about the attached
monitor to determine its display properties.
