Key Features

Dual DVI Distribution: Splits one dual link DVI signal to two separate dual link DVI outputs for simultaneous display on two screens.

 

High-Resolution Video: Supports single-link DVI resolutions up to 1920×1200 and dual-link resolutions up to 3840×2400.

 

Automatic Equalization: Auto EQ compensates for any imperfections in the image to ensure signal integrity.

 

HDCP Compliant: Features HDCP pass-through on output #1, allowing for the display of protected content.

Status Indicators: Includes LED indicators for power status and for each DVI link, providing visual confirmation of active connections.

How It Works

The Gefen 1:2 DVI Dual Link Distribution Amplifier operates by taking a single DVI source and splitting the signal to two separate displays. The setup is straightforward. First, connect your computer or other dual link DVI source to the DVI input port on the distribution amplifier using the included 6 ft. dual link DVI cable. Next, connect your two DVI displays to the DVI Out 1 and DVI Out 2 ports on the amplifier. Finally, connect the included 5V DC power supply to the unit and plug it into an available electrical outlet to provide power. For larger installations, multiple units can be cascaded from one to the next to create a flexible distribution system that can connect to many displays from a single source.
