Maximum length of DVI cable from MRU to Plasma
Symptoms / Customer Description
What is the longest DVI cable that can be used between the Media receiver unit (MRU) and the Plasma Display section?
[Primary Symptom Code: 2380 ]
Solution
The maximum recommended length for the DVI cable between the Media receiver unit and the Plasma display section is 3 meters which is the length of the cable that is supplied with the unit. However, there is an approved Sony 10-meter cable, part number VMCP10, which can be used.
NOTE: Some after market 10-meter cables from vendors other than Sony produce a cable that may not be of the same quality. These cables can produce video problems in the display. Typically, if the cable is not of good quality, red, green, or blue lines will appear in the picture.
NOTE: If using the VMCP10 (10-meter cable) please pay special attention to which end of the cable is plugged into the MRU and which is plugged into the display section. Some of the cables are polarity sensitive and will be marked on the connector housing. If the cable is marked it will have Display or Receiver on the black or white connector housings.
Display = connect to the display section
Receiver = connect to the media receiver unit
If no markings are present the cable is not polarity sensitive and can be connected in either direction.
