ATEN International, a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of advanced communication solutions, has introduced its first Mini Cat 5 DVI Extender. The VE066 allows users to increase the distance between the DVI display and DVI source by up to 20m using only one Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable, providing a convenient way to replace heavy and expensive DVI cables. Â
With hot-plugging support, easily add or remove the VE066 Transmitter connected to the source or the VE066 Receiver connected to the display without having to power down the devices. The VE066 Mini Cat 5 DVI Extender is fully compatible with all ATEN DVI switches and splitters. It provides a convenient, compact and cost-efficient way to significantly extend the distance from a DVI signal source to a target display.
“In the visual information era, it is becoming more and more important to be able to transfer signals over long distances with excellent image quality. Our latest VE066 extender in compact housing is a perfect solution both for home users and for small companies,” says Kevin Chen, President of ATEN International. “I believe that its benefits will be appreciated by home cinema lovers, as well as employees of banks, airports or security services providers,” he adds.
With ATEN’s exclusive Smart Video Display technology, image quality is optimized based on the available resolution of the output device. VE066 Mini Cat 5 DVI Extender supports video signal of the highest quality in the following resolutions: HDTV 720p, 1080i and 1080p or SVGA, SXGA, UXGA and WUXGA (19200x1200).
