DVX500 - The Future of KVM Extension 

With Flat panel displays becoming more prevalent it is natural to drive them digitally through their DVI interface to obtain optimum image quality. DVX500 supports DVI extension up to resolutions of 1600 x 1200 to ensure the benefits of using DVI are maintained even if you locate your monitor 10 km away! 

The DVX500 consists of a Transmitter unit and a Receiver unit. These two devices enable long-distance, loss less transmission of DVI video signals between a digital video source and a digital display device. The DVX500 is equipped with DVI-digital (Digital Visual Interface) connectors for a single-link and optional keyboard and mouse. The DVX500 receiver is small enough to be attached near a projector. With the DVX500, the maximum distance between the source and digital display is 330 feet (100 m) using cat5 and up to 10,000ft using fiber optic VGA, DVI and more DVX500 supports traditional analog VGA as well as digital DVI. All combinations of DVI and VGA (graphics cards and monitors) are supported allowing equipment to be mixed. You could use DVX500 today to extend (with perfect image quality) your existing SVGA equipment. Later, if you purchase a DVI monitor you can use it with DVX500 even though your computer is equipped with a VGA graphic card. When you finally upgrade to a DVI graphic card, DVX500 will continue to extend your system without any reconfiguration. 

Flexibility
DVX500 has a modular architecture providing superb flexibility. Not only are all standard peripheral connections supported (PS2, SUN), but also the different cabling interfaces (depending on model) for bridging the required distance: CAT5 network cable, Multimode or Singlemode fibre cables. Other interfaces may also be added such as Serial Port for Touch-Screen, Stereo Audio, Base-Band Video Transmission, USB, 10BaseT Network Management, Parallel Port or other custom interfaces. 

The Features
Depending on the type of device, you can connect monitors with a resolution of up to 1600x1200 pixels. You can use a PS2 Mouse and Keyboard, SUN Keyboard/Mouse or USB Devices. The highly dense packing of the electronic components gives you the ability to mount this unit in a slim, tight housing, which can be placed on the table, as well as mounted at a wall as well as stacked in a 19" Housing. 

Bridging the distance with a CAT5 cable (used with a 10BaseT network), you can bridge at least 100m (app. 330ft). Using only 2 fibers of a fiber optical cable (i.e. FOIRL from fiber networking or Fiber To The Desk, ...) you can bridge 200m (app. 650ft) with a 62.5 micron fiber and up to 400m (app. 1310ft) with a 50 micron fiber. If you use single mode fibers/devices, you can extend the distance up to 10km (app 6 1/4 miles) Using fiber devices, you do not only have the advantage of extended cable length, but your line is also absolutely unaffected by electromagnetic interferences (EMI). You have electromagnetic protection against lightings and over voltage. And very good protection for your data. 

On Screen Display
You can easily adjust all necessary device parameters through a OSD. Personal selections of color temperature, brightness, contrast, etc.
