Overview

DVI, USB and more - Our new Draco minor Fiber (Multiplex-Repeater / Cross-point switch / KVM-switch) supports the DVI graphics interface (DVI-D) and, depending on the device, USB keyboard/mouse (HID - Human Interface Device - such as touch screens, graphics tablets, barcode readers or similar may be successful – but there is no guarantee for this!) and serial (V24/RS232) transfer and also bi-directional audio transmission.

Design:

• crystal clear picture quality in all resolutions up to 1920x1200@60Hz
• max. resolution: DVI 1920x1200@60Hz (lower resolutions at least @75Hz)
• All revisions for to remotely locate a workspace (Keyboard, Mouse and Screen)
• USB keyboard and mouse - HID devices like Touch screen, Tableaus and other pointing or input devices possible
• All versions have local video output to add a second screen directly at the CPU
• Dual-Head devices available, supporting workspaces with Dual-Head grapiccards and two independend monitors
• Max. resolution on all distances 
• Compatible with all operating systems
• Also applicable as slave unit for Draco major 
• Using Rack-Mount-Kits, the devices might be mounted in server racks. Up to 4 devices may be integrated in 1 U racksapce.

Details

As a Multiplex Repeater the device allows to connect a (up to 10km remotely located) PC. For that purpose a local unit is directly installed at the PC. The received signals (DVI + optional serial/audio) are equalized and distributed on up to 7 equivalent outputs. These 7 outputs can be switch to up to 7 (up to 10 km away) display devices. Thereto a remote unit has to be installed at each display. Optionally, two independent sources can be distributed on up to three display devices. Or four signal lines can be prepared for greater distances. Optionally, instead of a display device, multiple devices may be cascaded in two stages. The perfect solution for all real digital signage applications!

As an 8-port Crosspoint Switch: each port can be switched optionally as an input or output. You can, for example, switch and distribute the signals from 3 signal sources on up to 5 displays (allowing simultaneous presentations on several displays). Alternatively, signals coming from 7 signal sources can be switched in turn to a single display. The changeover can be triggered remotely using the serial interface (RS232) and/or by a push-button at the device.

As a 7-port KVM Switch: up to 7 Single-Head ports (a “Single-Head” extender system supports 1 x monitor, 1 x keyboard, 1 x mouse) or up to 3 Dual-Head ports (a Dual-Head extender system supports 2x monitor, 1x keyboard, 1x mouse). The changeover can be triggered remotely using the serial interface (RS232) and/or by a push-button at the device.

Cascade multiple devices in two stages for all applications to give up to 49/1 connections. The Draco minor switch has the advantage that it can be positioned up to 10 km away from both your signal source and display device. This becomes possible by using the proven Draco Extender technology for the transmission of DVI Monitor and USB keyboard and mouse signals over fiber cable.
The operation of a Draco minor Switch always requires at least one Local Unit and up to seven Remote Units from the Draco Extenders range.
