DP-EDID-EMLTR-HLV2: Simulates the presence of an attached display to a video source 

• Supports headless operation
• Recomended for remote desktop access to a headless computer
• Does not support video pass-through operation

The Headless DisplayPort EDID Emulator simulates the presence of an attached display to a video source. The built-in EDID table stores and reproduces resolutions up to 3840x2160 @ 17Hz and 1080p at 60Hz.

The DP-EDID-EMLTR-HLV2 unit allows a DisplayPort computer (or other video source*) to sense a monitor is present and cause the video card or device to send out a resolution from the DP-EDID-EMLTR-HLV2 table.

The main purpose for this unit is for remote desktop access to a headless computer. No downstream equipment can be connected through it to the computer / source.

Features and Benefits
• Emulates a DisplayPort display (sink device) by providing Hot Plug Detect and EDID to the DisplayPort source device from the emulator's internal memory
• Supports headless operation – no monitor connection required
• Does not support video pass-through operation
• Supports Ultra-HD 4Kx2K resolution (3840x2160 @ 17Hz), HDTV resolution up to 1080p @ 60Hz, and up to 1920x1200 @ 30Hz (WUXGA)
• Pre-programmed with many standard resolutions with native set to 1080p
• A monitor must be connected to the same source as the emulator to select resolution
• The selectable resolutions are dependent on the computer's graphic card
• Easy installation and operation – no drivers or configuration
• Supports Plug-n-Play specification
• Compact design
• No power supply – powered by source
• Ideal for remote desktop access to a headless computer, virtual desktop on VR headsets, and for use with GPGPU tasks such as cryptocurrency mining

* The DP-EDID-EMLTR-HLV2 must be connected directly to the video source (with no other equipment connected between the EMLTR and the video source)
