DVI Detective

Simplify even the most extensive display installations thanks to Gefen and their DVI Detective. This tool is a unique and useful little device that reads and stores a computer's digital video information (EDID) in order to simplify the installation process for users who are extending a digital projector or plasma display away from the computer. Once installed and connected, the DVI Detective continually transmits the EDID to the computer, essentially tricking the computer into thinking that the video is present, even when it is not connected. The user can then disconnect the display, place it in a remote location and reconnect it, without rebooting the operating system. The entire installation process benefits from this, which utilizes a much smaller cable that requires fewer connections.
