Gefen Dual Link DVI to Mini DisplayPort Converter

The Gefen GTV-DVIDL-2-MDP is a Dual Link DVI to Mini DisplayPort Converter. It works with all Mac and PC computers using dual link DVI graphics supporting resolutions up to 2560×1600. It is designed as an easy, plug and play solution for viewing DVI dual link video using the Mini DisplayPort interface with audio support. The GefenTV Dual Link DVI to Mini DP Converter can also be used with displays using standard DisplayPort connections with a passive Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. Audio support is provided through the built-in 3.5mm audio connector. The audio output is fed through the Mini DP Out connector on the unit. An EDID switch button is provided for manually selecting the three EDID modes: 2560×1600, 2560×1440, or pass-through. The unit is powered using the included USB cable.

How It Works 
Connect your DVI source to the GefenTV Dual Link DVI to Mini DP Converter using the provided DVI cable to the unit’s DVI In connector. Using a Mini DisplayPort cable (sold separately), connect the cable from the unit’s Mini DP Out jack to the display’s Mini DisplayPort input (or DisplayPort input: With a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort adapter, also sold separately). Use the EDID button on the front panel to cycle through the three different EDID modes: 2560×1600, 2560×1440, or pass-through. Select the appropriate EDID mode based on the capabilities of the display attached. The specific EDID Mode LED will glow to indicate which mode is selected. Attach the optional audio cable from your computer’s audio output jack to the unit’s Audio In jack. Connect the USB cable (included) from the computer’s USB port to the unit’s USB (USB For Power) jack.
