Support for multiple non-MST video displays on XD614 (cont.)
An external MST hub can receive the combined DisplayPort MST signal from the first
video port on the receiver and split out separate links to standard video displays (the
second video output port on the receiver will be disabled):
Adder does not supply MST hubs, but can recommend the following models:
• Startech™ MST Hub 1x4 (MSTDP124DP)
• Gofanco™ Prophecy MST hub 1x4 (PRO-MSTDP4DP)

You have several connection options:
•
For a two display arrangement, connect an MST-compliant video display with another
display (MST-compliant or not) in a daisy-chain arrangement.
•
If using two non MST-compliant video displays, connect one to the TX video output
port and the other directly to the host computer’s video adapter, similar to the upper
part of the example shown below.
•
If only a single local display is required, a non-MST display can be connected directly to
the video output port.
On both types of transmitters,
there are no console USB outlets,
so if a local keyboard and/or
mouse are required, they need to
be connected directly to the host
computer.

ADDERLink XD614
supports
just one console video display
at the transmitter. If other
local console video displays are
required, then streams 2 to 4 can
be accessed directly from the host
computer’s video adapter.
Note: The display connected to the
local console should support at
least equal video resolution of that
connected at the RX, otherwise no
video will be displayed.
