Extron DVID SL Pro/25 (part number 26-649-25) is a 25 ft (7.6 m) single link DVI-D cable and the shortest length in the family built on heavier 22 AWG conductors.

Twenty-five feet is roughly where DVI runs begin to fail with commodity cable. Extron answers that by changing the construction rather than the connector: from 25 ft upward the DVID SL Pro switches to tinned copper conductors at 22 AWG inside a thicker 0.47 in PVC jacket, which cuts loss across the longer span. The terminations are unchanged, still a male DVI-D single link plug at each end with gold plated contacts, so the cable installs into exactly the same equipment as the short lengths.

Key Capabilities

• Delivers single link DVI-D at up to 1920x1200 and 60 Hz over 25 ft.
• 22 AWG tinned copper conductors and drain wire reduce loss on longer pulls.
• 0.47 in outer diameter cable with a 4.50 in bend radius.
• Intrapair skew of 350 ps or less per 12 m keeps each TMDS pair aligned.
• Interpair skew of 2.42 ns or less per 12 m holds the color channels together.
• Data rate to 4.95 Gbps, entirely within the DVI 1.0 standard.

Where It Is Used

Twenty-five feet is the classic rack-to-projector or rack-to-wall-display distance in classrooms, courtrooms, boardrooms and operating rooms. Ampronix supplies this length to integrators pulling DVI-D through conduit, floor boxes and ceiling pathways, where a shorter cable would leave no service loop at either termination.
