The Black Box ServSwitch DTX5000 Extender system is capable of transmitting either
digital (DVI) or analog video (VGA) from the remote computer to your analog/digital
monitor.
The Black Box DTX5002 Extender system is capable of transmitting only digital (DVI)
video from the remote computer to your analog/digital monitor.
The extender will normally operate well when set on its default settings. However, some
computers need the transmitter to be set for the dedicated video type to operate correctly
(DTX5000 only). In the case of the DTX5002, this is catered for automatically.
