Electrical Connections
DVI-I Connector
DA2DVI-DL 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-DL Output
Monitor hotplug is detected on the DVI-DL OUTPUT 1 (HPD LED lights
green). After a hotplug event, the DA2DVI-DL tries to read the EDID of
the connected device.
No output reclocking is provided. If a long DVI cable is connected then
the cable.

optical DVI transmitters. Standard DVI outputs or VGA cards supply
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.
DVI-DL Input
The input has Dual-Link disable option, which ensures Single-Link
compatibility. Devices supporting Dual-Link output can confuse
Single-Link inputs; disabling the Dual-Link TMDS channel distribution
solves this problem. For more information see Output Port Properties
section.
Cable length at inputs
please use one of our cable extender solutions, for example the
Lightware DVIDL-Extender.
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.
