436 Chapter 13 Testing DisplayPort Sinks
Overview of DisplayPort sink testing
The DisplayPort option enables the generator to test DisplayPort sinks. With the
DisplayPort option, the generator outputs DisplayPort-compatible video.
The DisplayPort option provides the following features:
• EDID parsing
• Generation of all VESA formats up to 270MHz (currently) with higher speeds available
in future releases.
• HDCP compliance testing
Note:
Procedures for HDCP compliance testing are
presented in “
Testing DisplayPort sinks with HDCP ” on page 592 for details.
Physical connections
The generator has one DisplayPort OUT(Tx) connector for testing DisplayPort sinks.
The following figure shows the location of this connector on a generator with the
DisplayPort option.
