The 3 DisplayPorts (DP0, DP1 and DP2) can be used in a 3 independent display configuration. By use of DP
Adapter Converters it is possible to implement a mix of DP, VGA, HDMI and DVI-D outputs and still support 3
independent displays configuration.
Available DP adapters:
DP to VGA DP to HDMI DP to DVI-D
PN 1045-5779 PN 1045-5781 PN 1045-5780
DP Extention Cable:
In order to prevent mechanical conflicts the above DP adapters can be connected to DP#0, DP#1 and DP#2
via the 1051-7619 Cable DP Extender cable 200mm.
The DP to VGA adapter is an “active” converter, meaning that seen from the graphics controller it looks like
a DP. The HDMI and DVI converters are passive converters, meaning that they inform the graphics
controller about its type and the graphics controller then replace the DP signals with TMDS signals (used in
HDMI and DVI).
The HDMI interface supports the HDMI 1.4a specification including audio codec. Limitations to the
resolution apply: 2048x1536 (VGA), 1920x1200 (HDMI and DVI).
Four independent (simultaneously) displays (without using PCIe Graphics cards) is a possible configuration
under the following conditions:
1. A DP-PCIe passive card or DP-DVI passive card must be used in the outermost PCIe slot.
2. All DP must be converted to DVI-D or HDMI via passive adapters like above adapters.
3. Two of the panels must have the same timing (as if two panels are of the exact same type).
