3.3.1. USB Connector
The device provides a standard USB 2.0 mini B-type
connector for software control and firmware upgrade
purpose. You can find more details about sofware
control in
Software Control – Lightware Device Controller
section
and in
section. For more information about

DVI Input
Connect one Single-Link DVI cable (only
digital pins are connected internally) between
the DVI source and DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro.
3
DVI Outputs
Connect one Single-Link DVI-D or DVI-I
cable (only digital pins are connected
internally) between DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro and
display device. The OUTPUT connector is
able to supply 500 mA current on pin 14 to
power fiber optical DVI extenders like DVI-
OPT-TX110. See more information in
section.
3.3.2. DVI-I Connector
DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro provides 29 pole „digital only” DVI-I Dual-Link
connectors (only digital pins are internally connected). This way, users
can plug in any DVI connector, but keep in mind that analog signals
(such as VGA or RGBHV) are not processed.
Always use high quality DVI cable for connecting sources and displays.

DVI Output
Monitor hotplug is detected on the OUTPUT ports (Monitor hotplug
LED lights green). After a hotplug event, the DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro tries to
read the EDID of the connected device.
Fiber Cable Powering
As a special feature, the device is able to supply 500 mA current on
DDC +5V output (pin 14 on OUTPUT connector) to power fiber optical
DVI transmitters. Standard DVI outputs or VGA cards supply only 55
mA current on +5V output, thus unable to power directly a fiber optical
cable.

INFO: The device does not check if the connected sink (monitor,
projector or other equipment) supports hotplug or EDID signals but
outputs the input signal directly.
3.3.3. DC 5V Connection
The device has a locking DC connector to establish robust and safe
power connection. After plugging it in, turn the plug clockwise as you
can see in the picture below.
Locking DC Connector
Do not forget to turn the plug clockwise direction before disconnecting
the power adaptor.
WARNING! Always use the supplied 5V power adaptor or Light-
ware’s rack mountable power supply. Warranty void if damage oc-
curs due to use of a different power source.
DVI Input
The input has a built-in signal detection circuit with a LED indicator.
The DVI Signal present LED lights green, if the INPUT connector
senses an active DVI signal.
Cable Length at Inputs
The unit has an advanced built-in cable equalization circuit, which
automatically provides cable length compensation. This circuit
extends the maximum usable cable length to 60 meters using
high quality 22AWG copper cable at WUXGA 1920x1200 graphics
resolution.
