Introduction
DVI (Digital Visual Interface) recently becomes an popular interface between monitor and PC. Electrical signal limits the transmission length and quality. ACE DVI extender helps DVI to transmit far away via optical fiber.

Pseudo EDID support
There is virtual EDID data structure in TX module. This provides pseudo monitor information to the host. Then host can work at different modes by reading this data. It supports all standard modes such as VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA and UXGA...etc.

Installation
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Improper, or no operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.

Step 1: Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group. Check the following items
TX module or
RX module
AC/DC Adaptor
Plug converter (Optional)
Step 2: Connect each duplex LC fiber cable one by one as indicated number. The channel "1" of TX corresponds to channel 1 of RX. The other channels are the same connection.
Step 3: Connect the AC/DC adapter to the RX module.
Neglect AC/DC adapter to the TX module. The PC may supply voltage source via DVI receptacle.
Step 4: Plug directly the TX module in the DVI receptacle of PC. Do NOT use any intermediate cable or adapter between them.
Step 5: Plug the RX directly module in the DVI receptacle of display. Do NOT use any intermediate cable or adapter between them.
Step 6: Power on the PC and display.

Example for multiple monitor installation

For example, we calculate the power loss from TX to RX1. In this optical path, we have 6 connectors, 2.006 km fiber, one 1x4 coupler and one 1x2 coupler. If we add all losses in this, we can get 14.5 dB in total loss. From the ordering information on page 1, we can choose the model whose power budget is greater than 14.5 dB for this installation. For example, Ace Plus DVIE005-DVI has 15 dB power budget which is greater than 14.5 dB, so it can be chosen to use in this setup.
