computers’ audio and video outputs to multiple displays. Any one of the inputs
can be broadcast to any or all of the outputs. Built-in video signal enhancement
allows you to place monitors up to 164 feet away while maintaining your video
quality. Switch between computers via push buttons or use the included infrared
remote control for PC selection from up to 6 feet away. From use in test bench
facilities, data centers and help desks to video broadcasting, the TruLink video/audio
matrix switch delivers both performance and value.

DVI: Digital Visual Interface! What
Is It?
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a
video interface standard designed to maximize the visual quality of digital
display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital
projectors. It was developed by an industry consortium, the Digital Display
Working Group (DDWG). It is designed for carrying uncompressed digital video
data to a compatible monitor or projector, and is partially compatible with
the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard in digital mode (DVI-D).
DVI represents a major improvement in image quality over the older VGA
standard.
The DVI interface uses a digital protocol
in which the desired illumination of pixels is transmitted as binary data.
When the display is driven at its native resolution, it will read each
number and apply that brightness to the appropriate pixel. In this way, each
pixel in the output buffer of the source device corresponds directly to one
pixel in the display device, whereas with an analog signal the appearance of
each pixel may be affected by its adjacent pixels as well as by electrical
noise and other forms of analog distortion.
Previous standards such as the analog VGA were designed for CRT-based
devices and thus did not use discrete time display addressing. As the analog
source transmits each horizontal line of the image, it varies its output
voltage to represent the desired brightness. In a CRT device, this is used
to vary the intensity of the scanning beam as it moves across the screen.
The two types of DVI interfaces are Single
Link and Dual Link. Following are the features and benefits of each:
Single Link - The Single Link interface is limited to a maximum pixel
clock of 165 Hz. It uses four (4) twisted pairs of wires (one each of Red,
Green, Blue and Clock). Maximum resolution is 1920 x 1200 at 60Hz.
Dual Link - The Dual Link interface is most common for today’s modern
LCD monitors. It provides three times as many pixels as the Single Link
interface. And its maximum clock may exceed 165 Hz. Dual Link uses six (6)
twisted pairs wires with two (2) each for Red, Green, and Blue, as well as
on pair for Clock. Dual Link’s maximum resolution is 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz.
When you use the Dual Link Interface you can use a longer cable because of
its higher bandwidth. Dual Link also provides HDCP support, which is
required for Blu-Ray playback.
What is UXGA?
UXGA (Ultra Extended Graphics Array) is a display mode in
which the resolution is 1600 pixels horizontally by 1200 pixels vertically
(1600 x 1200). This amounts to a total of 1,920,000 pixels on the screen.
A UXGA display might be preferred by computer users who want or need fine
detail. UXGA displays also allow the user to specifiy up to four 800 x 600-pixel
images at a time, with reasonable detail in each. An example of such an
application is the reception of a television (TV) program while browsing
the Web, and at the same time working in a word processor and a vector graphics
program. Scientists and engineers can make use of the high resolution and
large screen size when working with computer-aided graphics (CAD) programs,
especially three-dimensional (3D) rendering.
A UXGA display provides 6.25 times as many pixels as a 640 x 480 display,
four times as many pixels as an 800 x 600 display, and approximately 2.44
times as many pixels as a 1024 x 768 display. Modest-sized liquid crystal
display (LCD) panels with the UXGA specification offer a level of detail
comparable to print on paper. The main disadvantage of this type of display
is the high cost compared with displays having less resolution.
LCD Monitors - The Buying Explosion Continues
LCD monitors have revolutionized the computer industry. In fact, in this age of miniaturized productivity, the compact, ultra-slim LCD monitors are practically the industry standard. If you want style, grace, portability and spectacular image quality, you’ll get it all with an LCD monitor. And the attractive, thin-bezel design has captured the imagination of everyone who values style and substance. Consequently, nearly everyone is abandoning their CRT monitors and racing to buy LCD PC monitors - and prices are dropping fast.
Bigger is Better
Discerning desktop PC users who are looking for LCD monitors generally prefer
a bigger canvas. Nonetheless, a high quality 15-inch
LCD monitor makes an excellent spare monitor, or a decent primary unit if
budgetary concerns are your primary motivators. However, the difference in price
between a 15-inch
and 17-inch LCD
monitor is minimal, so you will see a much better visual landscape with
a larger LCD monitor. Both 17-inch
and 19-inch LCD
monitors usually offer 1280 x 1024 resolutions, which enables you to see
slightly larger, easier-to-read images on your new flat panel LCD.
An Amazing Multimedia Resource
The amazingly compact configuration of an LCD monitor makes it convenient for you to enjoy your PC entertainment choices. Unlike the bulky CRT, the LCD monitor fits comfortably on your desk and takes up less space in the home entertainment arena. Pop in your DVD movies, enjoy streaming videos or play the latest and greatest video games. It’s all great fun! So, whether you’re at work or play – during the night or the day – an LCD monitor with its delicious images, compact construction and stylish design is the perfect choice.
