Thanks to those who have taken the time to explain RGB video output
to me!  I still don't understand as much as I would like, but (excuse
the following...)

I'm trying to find out if it is possible to send an RGB (1K x 1K interlaced,
60Hz) signal to distances of up to 2 kilometers.  People have suggested
fiber optics--is this because none of us understand it or is there an
existing technology?  I've called Black Box and was told the only thing
they do with fiber optics is RS232.  

Where to next?

Thanks.
