StarTech DP2DVID2 Active DisplayPort 1.2 to DVI-D Dual-Link Adapter
Overview
The StarTech DP2DVID2 is an active adapter designed to convert a DisplayPort 1.2 HBR2 output to a DVI-D Dual-Link signal. This is essential for connecting modern DisplayPort-equipped workstations or surveillance systems to legacy DVI-D monitors or KVM switches that do not support DisplayPort input. It ensures you can maintain high-resolution video feeds, up to 2560x1600 at 60Hz, without requiring a monitor with native DisplayPort connectivity. The DP2DVID2 is USB-powered, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for an external power adapter.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a DisplayPort 1.2 output, including many business-class laptops, workstations, and some NVRs or DVRs that utilize DisplayPort for video output. It specifically supports DVI-D Dual-Link resolutions, making it suitable for high-resolution displays and KVMs that require this dual-link interface. It is not backward compatible with single-link DVI or other digital video formats like HDMI or VGA.
Installation Notes
The adapter requires a USB port for power. Ensure a USB port is available on the source device or via a powered USB hub. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F), suitable for standard indoor IT environments. Storage temperature ranges from -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F).
