Adder X-DVIPRO Features
High-definition Full Single-link DVI Video
The AdderLink X-DVI PRO extender is designed to deliver full single link DVI digital video resolutions up to 165 MPixels per second. 165MPixels per second is the maximum data rate available on single link DVI connections, and is achieved without the need to compress data in any way. Resolutions supported by single link DVI range from 640 x 480 @ 60 Hz (25 MPixels/s) through to 3840 x 2400 @ 17Hz (164 MPixels/s).
Transparent USB 2.0 Hub (4-Port)
The AdderLink X-DVI PRO also delivers bidirectional USB (low speed / full speed) data allowing you to extend any USB device on the same CATx cable. This makes the X-DVI PRO perfect for distributed workstations where you want to reduce environmental concerns such as heat and noise. A typical example of this would be post production suites. By centralizing your workstations, you can also extend operational life-span by ensuring optimal temperature control, and minimal physical disturbance.
Up to 220ft (70m) over single CAT7 cable
AdderLink X-DVI PRO requires just one CATx (CAT7a recommended) cable. Other solutions available require two cables to carry DVI and DDC EDID. The X-DVIPRO delivers this alongside USB data over a single CATx cable. Dependent upon cable type, quality and connections distances may vary. See technical specification for detailed rules.
Bidirectional CD-quality audio
CD audio quality (stereo channel 16 bit sampled at 44.1kHz) is available to transfer stereo audio from local to remote for Line Out. 8 channels of HDMI audio are also supported with sample sizes of 16, 20 or 24 bits up to 192kHz (simultaneously with the analog jack audio).
USB Powered Transmitter
The AdderLink X-DVI PRO transmitter can be powered directly via the USB link, reducing cable clutter. If you prefer, a mains power adapter is also available if the USB port has insufficient power.
Uncompressed Digital Video
The AdderLink X-DVI PRO is specifically designed to carry digital video over 50 meters. By maintaining the video in a purely digital domain, no loss of quality through D/A or A/D conversion will be experienced, ensuring the display output (LCD panel for example) is exactly the same as the signal produced by the display adapter (video card).
Extended profile DDC EDID
The AdderLink X-DVI PRO carries extended profile DDC EDID data from your display device to the display adapter to ensure that your system is configured to deliver optimal video performance. The extended profile DDC EDID is particularly important when extending video to high performance display devices. This is essential for professional graphics users such as post production, broadcast, architecture, graphic design, medical imaging, CAD or any other applications where display performance is critical.
Built to last
Adder Technology have a well-earned reputation for creating products that perform well and stay the course. The X-DVI PRO extender units are no exception and feature tough metallic enclosures to ensure they can easily withstand everyday treatment. The internal components and external connectors too are selected for their reliability in addition to their performance characteristics.
Fully platform independent
The ADDER X-DVIPRO supports fully transparent USB connections and is able to support all common hardware platforms including PC, Sun and MAC and their associated peripherals.
Plug and Play
AdderLink X-DVI PRO extenders are delivered in a zero config state so you can plug them in and start working with them straight away. There's no need for drivers or software to be installed.
High density rack mount option
Both transmitter and receiver units can be used stand-alone or up to 16 units to can be mounted into a 2U 19" chassis (X-RMK-CHASSIS).
