How It Works
Connect the Sender Unit to the Dual Link DVI source. Connect the Receiver Unit to the Dual Link
DVI display. Use a single strand of SC-terminated fiber optic cable to connect the Sender Unit to
the Receiver Unit. Use the included 5V DC power supplies to connect both the Sender Unit and the
Receiver Unit to available electrical outlets.

OPERATION NOTES
READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING
THE DVI DUAL LINK FIBER EXTENDER
•
•
The DVI Dual Link Fiber Extender only uses multi-mode SC fiber cables.
ATTENTION: Multi-mode fiber optic cable with a core diameter of 50/125 is required,
in order to extend to distance of 1000 feet (300 meters).
In most situations, only the Sender Unit need be powered. However, if the sink (e.g. Display) does
not supply enough voltage to the Receiver Unit, then connect the second power supply to the
Receiver Unit.
