Introduction

About this Manual

This manual contains information about the DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx

signal transmitter and receiver, with information on how to

mount, install, and operate these units.
In this manual, unless otherwise specified, the terms

"DVI DL 201" or "DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx" refer to both the

transmitter (DVI DL 201 Tx) and the receiver (DVI DL 201 Rx).

The term "transmitter" refers to the DVI DL 201 Tx, and

"receiver" refers to the DVI DL 201 Rx.

About the DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx

The DVI DL 201 Tx and DVI DL 201 Rx are dual link DVI

transmitter/receiver units. They can be purchased as a pair or

as individual units.
Each purchased pair and each individual unit is shipped with a

single external desktop 12 VDC power supply. A single power

supply, connected to the transmitter, is able to power both

devices.
Using three CAT 5/5e/6/7 twisted pair cables, DVI-D signals

can be extended up to 100' (30 m) at resolutions up to 2560 x

1600 @ 60 Hz. This is significantly further than the 15' (5 m)

specified for standard dual link DVI cables.

N

The DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx works with unshielded twisted

pair (UTP) cable or shielded twisted pair (STP) cable.

However, STP cables are required to ensure FCC Class A

and CE compliance.

DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx Features

100' (30 m), which is significantly further than the 15' (5 m)

specified for standard dual link DVI cables.
