Introduction

The Extron DVI-RGB 200 DVI to analog RGB video interface converts DVI digital video to analog RGB video. The interface accepts a single link of digital-only Digital Visual Interface (DVI-D) video from a computer, or other digital video source device, on a standard 29-pin female DVI-I connector. The interface outputs analog RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB video on female BNC connectors. The interface also buffers the DVI input and loops it through on a DVI connector for use by a local monitor (see figure 1).

The video source uses the bidirectional Display Data Channel (DDC) to determine the video resolution and refresh rate. The video source can obtain the rate directly from the local monitor or the user can select among 28 resolutions and refresh rates built into the interface.

Level and peaking adjustments allow the user to enhance the RGB video output for transmission across long distances.

The DVI-RGB 200 is rack mountable and has an internal switching power supply for worldwide power compatibility.
