Gefen EXT-DVI-144N 1x4 DVI Splitter / Distribution Amplifier

This Gefen EXT-DVI-144N 1x4 DVI Splitter / Distribution Amplifier distributes a single DVI digital video signal to as many as four displays.

One of the nice features of this distribution amplifier is that all of the input and output connections are grouped together on a single panel, which makes for a much neater installation than designs that spread the connectors across multiple panels.

The unit supports computer resolutions up to 1920 x 1200.  It can also handle HDTV resolutions up to 1080p, with the understanding that HDCP is not supported.  The EXT-DVI-144N can be rack mounted in a 1-U space using the included rack-mount ears, or simply place it on a shelf or any flat surface.

Warranty

Cable Solutions backs the EXT-DVI-144N with a one year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.  This warranty is separate from any warranty that may be provided by the manufacturer, so you must contact Cable Solutions for all warranty-related issues.

Gefen's description

Distribute DVI to 4 displays

1:4 Distribution Amplifier

 

Overview

One DVI input, Four DVI outputs

DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is a common connector used throughout the industry to connect digital video displays to video sources such as computers.

Gefen's 1:4 DVI Distribution Amplifier is a distribution hub that sends the same DVI graphics source to up to four DVI digital displays (flat panels or projectors). It is a reliable solution that accommodates four digital video displays at the same time, creating a multi-viewing environment that maintains the highest resolution video at all times.

How It Works

The 1:4 DVI Distribution Amplifier is connected with a DVI (male to male) cable from the DVI graphic source to the 1:4 DVI Distribution Amplifier input. There are four DVI outputs. DVI output one is the primary connection and is used for the main display. DVI outputs two through four follow the main display.

Note:  The 1:4 DVI Distribution Amplifier will only output a DVI-D (DVI digital) signal.
