New Gefen Extender for DisplayPort Streamlines Power Requirements and Supports High Resolution Video Extension to 100 Feet

Professionals working with high resolution video graphics up to 2560×1600 now have an easy way to extend their display from the computer using two CAT-7 cables. Gefen’s new DisplayPort Extender over CAT-7 sends audio/video up to 100 feet (30m) in distance from computer to display. Those working with resolutions up to 1920×1200 can use the same extender with only one CAT-7 cable.

Wall mountable sender and receiver units deliver audio and video from the DisplayPort source over the CAT-7 cabling to the display. Power is required at the sender unit only; the receiver unit receives its power using the CAT-7 cable.

Additional features include 16 different EQ adjustments using a rotating switch on the receiver unit. The receiver’s HPD Auto Calibration switch allows a full calibration of the connected display with no training needed in video technology.  A locking power supply on the sender unit improves system stability.

The Gefen DisplayPort Extender over CAT-7 is currently shipping and includes sender unit receiver unit, six-foot local DisplayPort cable and locking power supply.
