FAQs
What is the difference between single-link and dual-link DVI-D?
Dual-link DVI-D provides double the bandwidth of single-link, supporting higher resolutions (up to 2560×1600) and greater colour depth. This cable is dual-link, making it suitable for professional applications requiring enhanced video quality.
Can this cable be used with DVI-I or DVI-A connectors?
This is a DVI-D (digital only) cable. It will not work with DVI-I (integrated) or DVI-A (analogue) connectors. Ensure your display and computer both have DVI-D ports.
What resolutions does this cable support?
The Astrotek DVI-D Cable supports digital resolutions up to 2560×1600 pixels. It is suitable for Full HD (1920×1080), 2K, and WUXGA (1920×1200) displays.
Is the 5-metre length sufficient for my installation?
The 5-metre length is suitable for most office and meeting room installations. For longer distances, we recommend active DVI extenders or fibre optic cables to maintain signal integrity.
Why are the conductors individually insulated?
Individual insulation of each conductor minimises crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, ensuring high-speed, error-free transmission even in electrically noisy environments.
Is this cable compatible with older DVI displays?
Yes, dual-link DVI-D is backward compatible with single-link DVI-D devices. However, the cable will only operate at single-link speeds if connected to a single-link port.
