5m dvi cable with 2405fpw?
Does anyone use this cable for 2405fpw?
http://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat%5Fid=3304&sku=29530
It says 'DVI-D (digital) has a length limitation of 5 meters', but 2405fpw is single DVI and the res. is 1920x1200, which is larger than normal single DVI limite(1600x1200), I'm not sure if it works.
I have 7600gs with a dvi cable which came with 2405fpw is working fine now.

(The 1600x1200 limit includes allowance for the full blanking time. Larger monitors overcome this limitation by reducing the blanking interval)
A couple of good DVI articles:

I pasted a wrong URL. I wanted to put a normal cable.
Anyway, thanks for the info. I've read the pages, and also googled '5m dvi' and found some people having issues. I decided to order a 3m cable.
Thanks again!
