Product Description
The SVDF-200 is a component video to 1-fiber DVI converter. It receives SD
format S-video/Composite video and converts it to SXGA (1280×1024), 60Hz DVI
optical signal. The converted signal can be transmitted up to 500 meters
(1,640 feet) over one (1) SC multi-mode fiber. To recover the 1-fiber DVI
signal to electrical DVI, the OPTICIS 1-fiber DVI receiver, DVFX-100-R, is
used as a pair.

- SVDF-200, Component video to 1-fiber DVI converter: One (1) unit
- AC/DC power adapter: One (1) unit of +5V, 3A (Locking type)
- User’s Manual
- Option Product: Mounting bracket
System Requirements for Setup
To set up the SVDF-200, you will need the following:
- S-video/Composite video sources such as DVD player or camcorder
- No special requirements for video sources
Installation
Important: Please follow the installation procedure below to ensure proper operation.
Step 1: Unpacking
Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.
Step 2: Power Connection
Plug and fasten the 5V power adapter to the +5V DC jack on the rear side of
the converter. Ensure that the Power LED is ON (Blue).
Step 3: Video Source Connection
Connect the S-video or Component video source to the SVDF-200 using a mini-DIN
or RCA cable. Make sure there are firm connections between the video source
and the input port of the converter (S-VIDEO IN and COMPOSITE IN). If the
connected video source is active, the status LED (Blue) will turn on.
Note 1: The SVDF-200 is designed to accept the first incoming video inputs. If you connect a Composite video output to the SVDF-200 input port, it will work as a composite video to 1-fiber DVI converter, and vice versa.
Step 4: Fiber Connection
Connect the OPTICAL OUT of SVDF-200 to the 1-fiber DVI receiver,DVFX-100-R, using a multimode SC-SC optical fiber.
Step 5: Display Connection
Plug the DVFX-100-R into the DVI input port of the display.
Step 6: On-Site Monitoring (Optional)
If you need on-site monitoring, connect the S-VIDEO OUT or COMPOSITE OUT on the front side of the converter to a dedicated local display using a mini-DIN or RCA cable.
Note 2: As the same concept as Note 1, if you connect an S-video output to the SVDF-200 input port, it will work as an S-video to 1-fiber DVI converter, and only the S-VIDEO OUT port would be activated.
Note
- The maximum extension length by multi-mode fiber is 500 meters.
- It is recommended NOT to use any intermediate cable or adapter in between to avoid undesirable performance degradation.
