The VDE/200 Video Display Extension Kit allows you to remote a keyboard, monitor, mouse, and peripherals from a workstation long distances
The VDE/200 Video Display Extension Kit allows you to remote a keyboard, monitor, mouse, and peripherals from a workstation long distances (up to 10,000 feet), without loss of resolution. Using multi-mode fiber optic technology, the VDE is commonly used in areas where space is at a premium or where data security or environmental issues dictate that a CPU be located remotely from the graphics console or projector. The VDE is the only Gold Seal Approved solution for Silicon Graphics. The VDE is also SPARC Verified.

  • Convenience - Access your SGI or other graphics workstation from a remote location (creative or production department, etc.) with just as crisp and clear graphics as if you where still sitting next to it.
  • Improve your workstation environment - Keep fan noise and CPU maintenance interruptions restricted to the cold computer room.
  • Flexible solution - Use the VDE for any desired distance, from 75 to 10,000 feet. VDE systems are available to transport RGB, HDTV formats, NTSC, PAL, Audio, and most serial formats.
  • High resolution graphics - Patented automatic gain control ensures consistent, transparent operation with resolution to 2000 x 2000 pixels.
  • Easy to use - Plug-and-play design with no adjustments needed. Common copper cabling connections and simple ST fiber hook-up.
  • Complete system/software transparency - The VDE/200 connects directly to the video signal outputs from your processor - no digitizing, packetizing, routing, or signal reformatting is performed.
  • Platform Flexible - Supports video formats for Silicon Graphics, Sun, HP, IBM, DEC, Apple, and other compatible processors.
