The Gefen DVI Extra Long Range Extender
The DVI Extra Long Range Extender over CAT-5 extends any DVI source to an
HD display or other digital signage application up to 330 feet (100 meters). This
product uses Gefen ELR technology, delivering uncompressed DVI video to
1920x1200 over a single CAT-5 cable, reducing cable costs and providing easier
installation.
How It Works
Place the DVI Extra Long Range Extender Sender Unit next to the DVI source.
Use the included DVI cable to connect the source to the Sender Unit. Connect
the Receiver Unit to the display with a DVI cable. Use one CAT-5 cable, up to
330 feet (100 meters), to connect the Sender to the Receiver Unit. Connect the
included locking power supplies to the Sender and Receiver Units, and then con-
nect both power cables to available electrical outlets.

(UTP) CAT-5 or CAT-6 is acceptable.
NOTE: The shielded cable has an advantage by providing immunity to
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), cell phones and A/C motors.

compatible EDID and Hot Plug signals when working with different brands of
source devices and monitors.
