2-Port DVI-D CAT6 STP Extender
The Smart-AVI DVS-200S 2-Port DVI-D CAT6 STP Extender is designed to extend any DVI-D signal up to 220 feet to two displays and one local screen using Cat6 cabling while retaining perfect image quality at resolutions up to 1920 x 1200. SmartAVI, Inc.’s DVS-200S allows you to extend a DVI-D signal to up to two remote displays via one small unit that also loops a signal back to your computer so local monitoring is possible and simple.
A great example would be a retail shop running its digital signage from a computer in its back-office; using the DVS-200S, a media file or group of files could be broadcast to up to two screens situated around the store while also being viewed locally on that computer’s monitor. Quite simply, the outgoing DVI-D signal from your computer is plugged into the DVS-200S.
Offering unhindered use and simple flexibility
This box has one input and two outputs so that your signal can be sent up to 220 feet over inexpensive CAT6 cables to display screens anywhere in your retail shop, lounge, etc. In addition to the two outgoing signal ports, the unit also has a loop-back port that goes back to your computer, so that you may monitor exactly what is being broadcast to the remote screens.
This is all done from a single unit with one power supply. On power-up, the DVS-200S reads and stores the EDID of the DVI monitor connected to the local loopback port. From that point on, even if the local monitor is not attached to the unit, its DDC is retained in the flash memory of the DVS-200S unit and it will operate as if the monitor were connected, offering unhindered use and simple flexibility.
Applications
- Perfect Image Quality at all Resolutions
- Call Centers (co-locate user’s computers).
- Industrial (protection against pollution).
- Information Terminals & Kiosks.
- Airports (air traffic control, passenger information systems).
- Medical (using computer tomographs generates strong magnetic fields, which make it impossible to use monitors
