Apr 9, 2012 6:32 PM
Gefen announced two new extenders. The Dual Link DVI over Cat-6 Extender, a rack-mount sender/receiver, extends the high resolutions of dual link DVI (up to 3840×2400) using two Cat-6 cables, effective at distances up to 200ft. A plug-and-play installation, delivery of additional features such as RS-232 control, and built-in EDID management. It also includes locking power supplies and RS-232 firmware. The DVI RS-232 over Fiber Extender relies on a single strand of SC-terminated fiber optic cable to deliver both DVI and RS-232 up to 1640ft. The use of fiber-optic cabling is ideal for applications where electromagnetic interference is an important issue. RS-232 allows for automation and control of the display while locking connectors for the power supplies ensure a solid installation. Price: NA
