1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing Lightware routers. The standalone DVI-Plus matrices are single
link DVI matrix switchers with various DVI inputs and DVI outputs respectively, which routes
any input(s) to any combination of output(s).
The routers conform to DVI and HDMI specification without HDCP encryption, and switch
signals between 25 - 225 MHz pixel clock frequency: from 640x480@60Hz to
1920x1200@60Hz or 2048x1080@60Hz resolutions.
The input signals are compensated for 12dB loss and outputs are pre-emphasized by
+6dB, this way cable lengths up to 20 meters (65 feet) can be used.
The switcher has an RS-232 (or RS-422 optional) and an RJ45 LAN port for remote control
applications and a control panel for local control operation. Front panel buttons are
illuminated and reconfigurable with text for informative system integration.
