The VX-1DVI-SD optical extender is a single fiber DVI extender that can send 1 channel of DVI video, 1 channel of serial data and 2 channels of analog audio (with adapter) up to 6.2 miles (10 km). The extender is a low profile unit that transports over standard multimode or singlemode fiber using LC type optical connectors for a secure cable connection. LC connectors are the smallest and most widely used type. This allows the easiest installation possible through conduit or wall/ceiling mounted boom arms.

Graphic resolutions up to 1920×1200 and video resolutions up to 1080p 60Hz are possible over a single fiber. Both video and data can be extended out to 6 miles without the need for distribution amplifiers, cable equalization or in-line repeaters that are normally associated with copper cable extension. The VX- 1DVI-SD is the most economical solution for sending a single channel of digital video with data and audio over long distances.

No more EDID learning or blanked out screens! Critical EDID information is read directly from the monitor and passed to the graphics card via the duplex data channel. The VX-1DVI-SD can work on any digital display and provide resolutions up to 1920×1200. The VX-1DVI-SD is also HDCP compliant allowing the exchange of keys between the source and display.
