Enova DGX DXLink™ Twisted Pair Boards

Instruction Manual – Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 Digital Media Switchers
Important:
Because the DXLink, DVI, and HDMI Boards in the Enova DGX Switcher normally produce a
quality image, you will not need to make adjustments or custom scaler settings unless the installation has
special scaling, EDID, or HDCP requirements (if adjustments are necessary, see page 172).
Note:
Enova DGX DXLink Boards do not support CEC.
HDCP Compliance
If a connected downstream sink is not HDCP compliant, then the DXLink output will not send the signal to it.
This does not affect other outputs the source may be routed to. This allows compliant displays to show content
from source devices even if the source devices are switched to non-compliant displays. Non-compliant displays
can easily be identified because they display a dark red image (via an HDMI/DVI Output) or an orange image
(via a DXLink RX) to indicate that the authentication process failed.
InstaGate Pro
®
Technology
DXLink Boards meet HDCP standards and support InstaGate Pro Technology. For complete information on
HDCP functionality for DXLink boards, see “HDCP Support on Enova DGX Switchers” on page 75.
DXLink Boards provide EDID emulation support with plug-and-play information provided by the Enova
DGX Switcher.
DXLink input and output connectors incorporate HDMI Technology, are HDCP 1.4 compatible, and feature
InstaGate Pro Technology* for low-latency switching of HDCP protected content and support computer
video up to 1920x1200 and HDTV up to 1080p. The DXLink connectors also support embedded audio, both
linear PCM (stereo audio) and non-linear PCM (Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby TrueHD, etc.).
* InstaGate Pro Technology eliminates HDCP latency and interruptions on all displays in a system. (These conditions
are typically experienced when HDCP authenticates HDMI source and destination devices.) Key limitations on source
devices are also eliminated by allowing them to see only a single sink key from the DXLink Input Board’s input
connection. With InstaGate Pro Technology, when a source requires HDCP encrypted content, the inputs and compliant
downstream devices are automatically authenticated.
