Extender purpose and audience

The Gefen EXTDVIFM1000 is a DVI-D fiber optic extender that transmits digital video up to 5600 feet over a single multi-mode SC cable. It is built for integrators and operators who need to place a DVI display far beyond the reach of copper cables in environments where electromagnetic interference would corrupt the signal.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This unit suits installations that require a compact sender and receiver pair with automatic EDID programming for quick source-to-display synchronization. It is not intended for users who need to extend analog VGA, HDMI or DisplayPort signals, nor for setups that must carry USB, audio or serial data alongside the video.

Distance and fiber constraint

The extender reaches a maximum of 5600 feet using 62.5 µm multi-mode fiber terminated with SC connectors. The link distance is the single specification that determines whether this model fits the installation.

Questions about this item

What type of fiber connector does the EXTDVIFM1000 use for the link?

The extender uses a single Type SC fiber connector on both the sender and receiver units for the link.

How do you install the sender and receiver units for the DVI FM1000 extender?

Connect the video source to the sender's DVI-D 19-pin female input and the display to the receiver's DVI-D 19-pin female output, then link them with the SC-terminated fiber cable; the automatic EDID programming handles synchronization without manual steps.

What fiber cable specification is required for replacement with this extender?

Replacement requires CAB-1SC-XXX 62.5 multi-mode fiber cable with SC termination to maintain the single-strand optical link.
