FAQs
What is the difference between single-link and dual-link DVI cables?
Dual-link DVI cables feature 24+1 pins and provide double the bandwidth of single-link cables (18+1 pins). This enables support for higher resolutions and refresh rates, typically up to 2560×1600 pixels, making them ideal for professional displays and projectors.
What resolutions does this cable support?
The Astrotek DVI-D dual link cable supports resolutions up to 2560×1600 pixels at 9.9 Gbps transfer rate, suitable for high-definition and professional-grade displays.
Is this cable suitable for long cable runs?
At 2 metres, this cable is designed for typical office and AV setups. For longer distances, signal degradation may occur; Astrotek offers this cable in lengths up to 5 metres for extended runs.
Why are the connectors gold-plated?
Gold plating provides corrosion resistance, reduces oxidation, and ensures optimal electrical contact between the connector pins and sockets. This helps maintain signal integrity and reliability over extended use.
Can I use this cable with older DVI equipment?
Dual-link DVI cables are backward compatible with single-link DVI devices. However, you will only benefit from single-link performance on older equipment. Ensure your display or projector has a DVI-D input port.
Is this cable RoHS compliant?
Yes, the Astrotek DVI-D Cable is RoHS compliant, meaning it meets European environmental standards for restricted hazardous substances and is safe for business and residential use.
What warranty is included?
The Astrotek DVI-D Cable comes with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
