If you have a need to get your Apple Display Connector (ADC)-based flat panel screen away — far away — from the Power Mac G4 that it’s connected to, you might want to look in to Gefen Inc.’s ex-tend-it ADC Repeater.
The ADC Repeater enables you to connect your ADC-equipped flat panel display up to 330 feet away from the computer itself. It’s an external box that links the display and the computer together and Gefen said that it doesn’t sacrifice image quality. The ADC Repeater utilizes custom-made DVI cables, according to Gefen, which are capable of handling up to 1.6 GHz of data to help ensure flawless reproduction of digital images.
Applications for the ADC Repeater include IT management, A/V systems, corporate, medical and manufacturing environments, or anywhere there might be a need to keep the computer far away from the screen. The ADC is specific to Apple-branded flat panel displays, as well as a model from third-party peripheral maker Formac.
The ADC Repeater carries a suggested retail price of US$399. Visit Gefen’s Web site for more information.
