Connecting Typical Application

The DisplayPort Repeater is installed between the DisplayPort source and a connected DisplayPort monitor.

Installation

1. Connect the DisplayPort source (for example, a computer graphics source) to the Input connector.

2. Connect the Output connector to a DisplayPort acceptor (for example, a DisplayPort display).

3. Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the power jack on the DisplayPort Repeater and connect the adapter to the mains electricity.
   Note: The LED indicator should illuminate to implement successfully a proper power connection. If the LED indicator does not illuminate, please verify the power connection.

4. Turn on the power to the video sources and connected monitor.

5. Use your video cards display settings screen to make adjustments to the way video is displayed on the connected monitor.

Note: The Display Port Repeater is backward compatible with most DisplayPort 1.2 equipment running current graphics drivers, with the feature set being limited to that of your equipment (e.g. you may be limited to displaying in Clone  /Mirror mode only). Compatibility with older graphics cards is not guaranteed.
When displaying video resolutions is configured to 4K @60Hz, the distance between the DisplayPort Repeater and the monitor should be limited in 10m. (max. length: 5m in; 5m out); 4K @30Hz, in 35m. (max. length: 15m in; 20m out).  Or to be limited in 30m (max. length: 10m in; 20m out) at resolution up to 2500 x 1600 @60Hz.

Troubleshooting

If you are unable to get an acceptable image after following the installation instructions, try the troubleshooting tips below.

1. Is your equipment running the latest graphics driver? If not, download the latest graphics drivers for your equipment. Backward compatible with most DisplayPort 1.2 equipment running current graphics drivers, with the feature set being limited to that of your equipment (e.g. you may be limited to displaying in Clone / Mirror mode only). Compatibility with older graphics cards is not guaranteed.
2. Is the external power supply that came with the product connected and plugged into a working power source? For the product to function properly, it must be connected to and receiving power from the external power supply.
3. Were the power to the DisplayPort source turned off prior to installation? If not, restart your computer/video source.
4. What resolution are you trying to reach? The DisplayPort Repeater is tested to support video resolutions up to 4K @60Hz. If you are not able to get an acceptable image, try lowering your computer’s video resolution or adjusting the refresh rate.
5. What length cables are you using? The maximum cable lengths that can be used between the source and the DisplayPort Repeater; and between the DisplayPort Repeater and the monitor, is limited in the Installation section of this manual.
6. What type of cabling are you using? Inferior cabling can result in poor performance, so it is important that you use cables that can support the video resolution you are trying to obtain.
7. Test your cables to ensure they are working properly. For example, connect your DisplayPort cables between a source and monitor that you know works to see if the cable is functioning.
