Intelix DVI-F Installation Manual
Introduction The active Intelix DVI-F balun allows a DVI (digital visual interface) video signal to be transmitted up to 150 feet via inexpensive twisted pair cabling, such as Cat 5e or Cat 6. The DVI-F supports standard HDTV and VESA resolutions, as well as the DDWG standard for DVI compliant monitors. Two individual runs of twisted pair cable—one run of shielded and one run of unshielded—are required when installing the DVI-F balun. The video signal should be transmitted on the shielded twisted pair. In environments susceptible to high electromagnetic interference, two shielded twisted pair cables should be used. The Intelix DVI-F includes a send balun, receive balun, 6 foot DVI cable, two power supplies, and mounting brackets.
Installation To install the Intelix DVI-F baluns, perform the following steps: 1. Identify the pin configuration of the baluns and RJ45 connectors on the twisted pair cabling. To eliminate crosstalk, the pin configuration must follow the EIA/TIA 568B standard. Please ensure that wiring is straightthrough. 2. Connect the DVI-F send balun to the DVI output of the video source. Do not connect the 5V power supply. 3. Connect the DVI-F receive balun to the DVI input of the receiver at the remote end. 4. Complete the connection between the send and receive baluns using either one or two runs of twisted pair cable. Ensure that there are no split pairs or taps. 5. Connect the 5V power supply to either the send or receive DVI-F balun. Depending on the circuitry of the input/output devices, the second power supply may be required. 6. Power-on the video equipment. 7. Verify picture quality. If necessary, adjust the dip switches on the bottom of the send and receiver baluns. The dip switches are used to boost and equalize the picture quality based on the cable length and high-definition equipment being used. The dip switches should be adjusted with the source and destination devices powered on and transmitting through the balun.
Send Balun Dip Switch Settings Setting No Boost Normal Boost (Default) Strong Boost Undefined

Switch 2 ON OFF OFF ON

Switch 4 NA NA NA NA
Adjustment Guidelines: Strong boost should not be used with stranded cables. Using the wrong settings will not damage the units; it will only degrade picture quality. To eliminate crosstalk and outside interference, cables must be terminated with the EIA 568B standard.

The Intelix DVI-F conforms to the DVI and HDCP specifications and will work with other manufacturer’s equipment that also conforms to these specifications. Intelix does not guarantee operation with non-conforming devices. The Intelix DVI-F effectively passes the HDCP signal and does not manipulate the HDCP signals in any way.
