1.2. Description
Lightware DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro is a multifunctional distribution amplifier
with built-in EDID Management and Pixel Accurate Reclocking,
supporting DVI and HDMI 1.3a signals with or without HDCP
encryption. It automatically compensates for up to 60 meters of DVI
copper cable, hence no adjustment is needed by the user. The Output
signal is reclocked and stabilized using Lightware's Pixel Accurate
Reclocking technology to remove jitter caused by long cables or poor
quality DVI sources.
Thanks to the Advanced EDID Management, DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro can
emulate any DVI or HDMI display for continuous video output, even
if the attached display is disconnected or powered down. The EDID
memories from 01 to 49 are factory presets, the memories from 51
to 98 are user programmable. Memory 00 is transparent for OUTPUT
1 and Memory 99 is for OUTPUT 2, which means that the attached
display device's EDID (monitor or projector) will be reported to the
source. With the Easy EDID Creator (PC software) the users can create
their own EDID by completing four simple steps. More experienced
users can use the Advanced EDID Editor software to manage every
possible setting in the EDID, which they can upload to the memory of
the DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro.
DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro can be rack mounted or used standalone. The unit
is equipped with the highest grade gold plated connectors to ensure
reliable connection.
