Frequently Asked Questions - AT-DVI15SRS Atlona

What is the maximum transmission distance?

The AT-DVI15SRS can extend DVI signals up to 30 m (100 ft) at XGA (1024x768 @60Hz) and up to 15 m (50 ft) at WUXGA (1920x1200 @60Hz). Actual distance may vary depending on cable quality.

Does the extender require external power?

No, the AT-DVI15SRS is a passive device that does not require any external power supply. It draws power from the DVI source.

What type of cable do I need?

Use a single CAT5e or CAT6 cable. For resolutions above 1280x1024, a CAT6 cable is recommended. Shielded cables can help reduce EMI in long runs.

Can I use the units interchangeably as transmitter or receiver?

Yes, the two included units are identical and can function as either the transmitter or receiver, making installation easy.

What do the LED indicators mean?

The two LEDs on the RJ-45 connector will blink when the connection is successfully established between the transmitter and receiver.

How can I update or modify the EDID?

You can use an EDID Reader/Writer (e.g., AT-DVISync) to read or update the EDID information stored in the AT-DVI15SRS.

What is the warranty period?

Atlona offers a 10-year limited warranty for hardware/electronics purchased on or after June 1, 2013. For older purchases, the warranty is 3 years.

Can I use this extender with shielded CAT cable?

Yes, using shielded CAT5e/CAT6 cables can reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially over longer transmission distances.

What should I do if the LEDs are not blinking?

Ensure the CAT cable is tightly connected and not loose. Check that both the DVI source and monitor are powered on. If the issue persists, try a different cable.

Is the device compatible with analog VGA?

No, the AT-DVI15SRS is designed for digital DVI signals only (DVI-D). It does not support analog VGA or DVI-A.

INTRODUCTION

Atlona AT-DVI15SRS extends your PC DVI transmission distance up to 30m/100ft . With AT-DVI15SRS, users can transmit high quality digital video of PC applications through one cost effective CAT-5/5e to the remote monitor or projector, instead of using short and expensive DVI cables. With embedded EDID inside the extender, your PC will continue to send the digital video even when the monitor is not connected. The user can then disconnects the monitor, place it in a remote location and reconnect it without rebooting the operating system.

Atlona AT-DVI15SRS includes two identical units: transmitting and receiving units. The transmitting unit is connected to your PC DVI output and the receiving unit is connected to the monitor. While successfully connected, the two LED lights on RJ-45 connector will blink. The transmission distance between the sending and receiving units can be up to 30m/100ft at XGA (1024x768 @60Hz) or 15m/50ft at WUXGA (1920x1200@60Hz). With compact size and requiring no power, AT-DVI15SRS is the most cost effective choice for bringing your impressive digital video to the remote display.

NOTICE

1. If you need to modify EDID content in AT-DVI15SRS, you can use EDID Reader/Writer to update DVI EDID information (AT-DVISync).
2. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in CAT-5/5e/6 cable, you can use shielded CAT-5/5e/6 cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in the long transmission.
3. Because the quality of the CAT-5/5e/6 cables has the major effects in how long transmission distance will be made and how good is the received display, the actual transmission length is subject to your CAT-5/5e/6 cables. For resolution greater than 1280x1024, a CAT-6 cable is recommended.
