Description
DisplayPort is one of the newest video interface standards. Using DisplayPort, high resolution video and
excellent quality audio can be transmitted. The interface’s 10.8 Gbps bandwidth is capable of transmitting
2560x1600@60Hz pixel resolution video with full support of content protection (HDCP). UHD and 4Kx2K
resolution can be achieved up to 30Hz frame rate.
Intelligent HID Emulation is provided for two devices with full transparency. The special HID devices –
including keyboard and mouse – are emulated by the extender and transparently transferred to the computer
with the result that no extra drivers are required for the proper functionality, it’s as easy as Plug & Play.
DP-OPT-TX150 has 2 extra local USB ports with a built-in HUB and can be connected to the PC/Mac with a
single USB cable.
When connecting a DVI or HDMI display through an adaptor cable, Dual-mode DisplayPort graphic cards
reconfigure their outputs to DVI or HDMI accordingly. Lightware DisplayPort extenders support Dual-mode
port extension and adaptor cables.
Lightware’s DisplayPort extenders can be used with Thunderbolt sources and devices. The extender pair and
the DisplayPort monitor have to be placed at the end of the Thunderbolt chain. Apple Thunderbolt Display is
not supported.
Single Fiber Technology makes these units fully DisplayPort 1.1a and HDCP 1.1 compliant without the
need of a second fiber cable or copper connections. To simplify cabling, the bidirectional communication
- necessary for DisplayPort Link Training, HDCP handshaking and USB transfer - is performed on the same
fiber core that transmits the video signal. Both receiver and transmitter are remote configurable from either
side through the mini USB connector.

Features
Supports Highest Resolutions
Transmitting DisplayPort 1.1a video signals up to 10.8 Gbps bandwidth, e.g. 2560x1600
pixels at 60 Hz or 4096x2400 pixels at 30 Hz.
One Multimedia Fiber Cable
DisplayPort signal is transmitted using only one multimode 50/125 fiber optical cable with
SC connector.
No Signal Latency With Zero Frame Delay
The signal management architecture ensures that there is no delay added between the input
and the output.
DUAL MODE
Dual-mode DisplayPort
DVI or HDMI display device can be connected to DP-OPT-RX150 through a passive adaptor
thus forces the source to send DVI/HDMI signal.
HDCP Enable/Disable
When the extenders are in HDMI mode, HDCP can be enabled or disabled to prevent
unnecessary encryption to ensure compatibility.
USB KVM Extension
The source computer can be controlled remotely by USB HID devices (e.g. mouse, keyboard)
connected to DP-OPT-RX150, as their signal is transmitted through the fiber cable.
