Digital CIMs (D2CIM-DVUSB-DVI, D2CIM-DVUSB-HDMI, D2CIM-DVUSB-DP)
Customers with servers, PC’s or MAC’s using the DVI-D, HDMI, or DisplayPort digital video formats
should use one of the new digital CIMs. These CIMs will support the KX II standard video resolutions
of up to 1920x1080, including widescreen formats.
DDC/E-EDID is supported by the digital CIMs with the “preferred timing mode” set by the Dominion
KX II administrator. This is the preferred/native/default video resolution, called the “Display Native
Resolution” on the KX GUI. The default is 1280x1024@60hz, but this can be changed by the user on
the Port Configuration Page for each port. This communicated to the server to tell it what video
resolution to use, however not every server/OS/video card will use it. See the release notes and
documentation for more information. Available througout Europe via Mediatron Group companies.
In order to use these CIMs, the Dominion KX II must run Release 2.5 (or higher) and for CC-SG,
Release 5.3 (or higher).
Only Single Link DVI and HDMI are supported. For HDMI, HDCP (high bandwidth digital copy
protection) is not supported. Digital audio is supported over USB as in previous releases, not
embedded in the HDMI or DisplayPort signals.
At this time, the Dominion KX II models are the only switches supporting these new CIMs.
DVI Compatibility Mode for HDMI CIMs
Servers may output video using limited range RGB in accordance with HDMI standards. The result is
that the video may be too dark or light. We have seen this with Dell Optiplex servers at 1920x1080.
Also for Apple’s Mac Mini using the HDMI port.
A ‘DVI Compatibility Mode’ check box is available on the GUI for each port. This mode will provide the
DVI E-EDID to the target upon request. The server will output a DVI compatible video signal. This
improves the video quality for some servers.
The tightest mouse response in the industry and reduces installation time with Absolute Mouse Synchronization
