Main Features

High Quality Picture - No Signal Loss and Digital Noise Free
Our Distribution Amplifiers are built to deliver the highest quality picture preserving the native resolutions of the video sources without any signal loss. At the same time, the digital noises that may affect the picture quality will be eliminated. Due to the nature of the digital signals and passing through multiple stages of connection when using distribution amplifiers, it is important to eliminate the digital noises and boost the signal strength to preserve/enhance the video signal quality.

Signal Amplification for signal reliability and long length signal transmission.
Our 12V power adapter supplies adequate power to amplify the video signals from the video source. This is necessary as the overall length from the video source to the displays is longer when using the distribution amplifiers (distance from the video source to the distribution amplifier + distance from the distribution amplifier to the display). In most cases, the overall distance that the DVI signal will need to travel is over 10ft. Due to the nature of DVI signals, amplification is necessary to warrant the video quality and reliability. (Without amplification, there may be occasional blackouts or blinking effects) With this amplification feature, your video display can be extended up to 2300ft using our fiber optical DVI cables.

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) Compliant
Our DVI distribution amplifiers are fully HDCP compliant. Many video sources such as DVD players and Satellite/Cable Receivers are HDCP encrypted. For these video sources to be displayed correctly, HDCP compliant devices (e.g., TV, DVI Switch, distribution amplifier) are required.

Troubleshooting

ProblemSolution
Distribution Amplifier does not operateMake sure the 12V power is plugged in the back of the unit. Check to see if the power LED light is on.
  • No picture(or signal) Or Poor picture 1. In case your video source is HDCP enabled, make sure your video display(HDTV) is HDCP compliant.
  • 2. If you are using copper based DVI cable, overall length of the cables (length of the cable from video source to switch and length of the cable from switch to display) should not exceed 20ft. Exceeding 20ft. with copper based cables will result in no or poor picture quality. To extend beyond 20ft, please use fiber optical DVI extension cables such as Purelink OC series.
  • 3. Use high quality DVI cables.
  • 4. If you are using computers, try other refresh rate settings. Most HDTV’s have refresh rate of 48Hz and computer’s video cards are usually set at higher refresh rate. Try lower refresh rates.
  • 5. Make sure all DVI connectors are tightly secured to all DVI ports. Loosened screws on the DVI connectors will result in no or poor picture.
  • 6. Turn off all equipments (video source, switch and HDTV) and restart all equipments.
  • Incorrectly sized picture /resolution or No picture Please remember that your video source will only transmit one resolution setting. To connect varying resolution displays (1600x1200 resolution display and 800x600 resolution display) the resolution setting of your video source must be set to the lowest resolution setting (800x600).
