Sparta, N.J., (April 3, 2008) – RTcom USA Inc., provider of digital connectivity solutions for professional and consumer audio-visual and personal computer systems, today announced the OLC FX - a compact, fiber optic extension system for the long-distance transmission of digital video interface (DVI) signals. Featuring one transmitter and one receiver, the OLC FX is high-definition content protection (HDCP) compliant and supports Display Data Channel (DDC) communication. The OLC FX makes it possible to extend digital DVI signals up to 1,640 feet from a video source to a DVI compatible display.

Standard DVI signals transmitted over copper wire maintain signal integrity for as little as 15 feet. Longer distances require additional technology. RTcom USA provides solutions for extending digital DVI signals from 3 feet to 1,640 feet.

The Digital Extender™ OLC FX Converter features RTcom USA’s cutting-edge optical conversion technology which enables noise-free, high-resolution extension. The OLC FX’s connectors are detachable from the fiber optic cables, making it an ideal solution for feeding cable through small openings.

“The OLC FX provides end users with a compact, reliable and affordable solution for extending a DVI signal,” said Joon Ryu, president of RTcom USA. “Consumers can rest assured that there will be absolutely no sacrifice to signal clarity with the OLC FX as it was engineered to RTcom’s highest-specifications and features the same high performance optical conversion technology found in our higher-end fiber optic product offerings.”
