Extron DP Series DisplayPort to Single-Link DVI Adapter Cables
The Extron DP Series comprises active, unidirectional adapter cables designed to convert digital signals from dual-mode DisplayPort sources to single-link DVI displays. Featuring built-in active circuitry, these cables perform reliable DisplayPort-to-DVI signal conversion while passing EDID information from the display back to the source for proper handshaking and resolution support. Certified for seamless integration with Extron AVEdge, Cable Cubby, and HSA surface access enclosures, they enable straightforward incorporation of modern DisplayPort-equipped computers, laptops, or media players into existing DVI-based AV systems, projectors, or monitors in professional environments such as classrooms, conference rooms, control systems, and legacy installations.
These adapter cables ensure compatibility and signal integrity without additional converters or power supplies, supporting one-way transmission that maintains digital video quality. Ideal for AV integrators upgrading or bridging systems where DisplayPort sources need to connect to single-link DVI inputs, the series provides a compact, reliable solution for mixed-signal AV setups requiring VESA-compliant interoperability.
