• Application Diagram

About this Guide

This guide describes the SW2 DP switcher and discusses how to install, configure, and operate it. The terms “switcher” and “SW2 DP” are used interchangeably to refer to the SW2 DP switcher.

About the SW2 DP

The Extron SW2 DP is a two input, one output, DisplayPort switcher that switches DisplayPort video and embedded multi-channel digital audio signals. The SW2 DP is HDCP compliant and supports data rates up to 10.8 Gbps and computer resolutions up to 2560x1600 W 60 Hz.

The SW2 DP switcher can be controlled via the front panel or the RS-232 interface. You can select inputs by pressing the front panel buttons, enabling auto-input switching, or entering Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands via RS-232.

Features

• HDCP — The SW2 DP checks the sources and display for HDCP compliance. HDCP

LEDs for the inputs and output indicate whether HDCP authentication was successful.

• Thunderbolt™ source support — Thunderbolt sources are backwards-compatible

with the SW2 DP inputs for DisplayPort audio and video (Thunderbolt devices are not supported on the SW2 DP output).

• Auto-input switching — The SW2 DP can be configured to automatically switch to

the active input when the switcher detects a signal. If both input signals are present, the switcher switches to input 1.

• Signal detection LEDs — Both inputs and the output are represented by LEDs on the

front panel. Each LED lights if a signal is present for its input or output.

• Input cable equalization — Automatic input cable equalization compensates for

signal loss up to 25 feet (7.6 m).

• RS-232 control — The switcher can be controlled via SIS commands issued through

an RS-232 computer interface.

• Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — To prevent unauthorized access

to the switchers, front panel lock mode can be enabled via the front panel or SIS commands. When the switcher is in lock mode, all front panel controls are disabled (RS-232 control remains available).

SW2 DP • Introduction 1

• EDID Minder — EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) consists of the resolution,

with DisplayPort Input

TouchLink

Ext SW2 DP

Displ

refresh rate, and pixel clock information of a display device. The EDID Minder manages this information between the digital output device and the inputs. By maintaining continuous EDID communication with the sources, the EDID Minder ensures that all DisplayPort sources power up properly and maintain their video outputs, whether or not an active signal is displayed.

• A rear panel DIP switch enables you to either keep the default EDID of 1920x1080 @

60 Hz with 2-channel audio or store the EDID of the connected display at the output so that connection with the display is made quickly and smoothly at each power-up.

• Power supply — An external 12 VDC power supply with a 2-pole captive screw

connector accepts 100 to 240 VAC.

• Rack and furniture mounting — The SW2 DP can be mounted on a rack shelf or

under a desk or podium with an optional mounting kit.

Installation

This section gives an overview of the steps to install the SW2 DP switcher and detailed instructions for cabling. It also provides a description of the rear panel connectors. The following topics are covered:

• Installation Overview

• Rear Panel Features

• Wiring for RS-232 Control

• Connecting to the USB Port

• Enabling Auto-input Switching

• Wiring the DisplayPort Connectors

• Wiring the Power Connector (Optional)

Installation Overview

To install and set up the SW2 DP switcher:

1. Turn off all of the equipment and disconnect it from the power source.

2. (Optional) Mount the switcher on a rack shelf or furniture (see Mounting the SW2 DP

Switcher on page 28).

3. Connect DisplayPort input sources to one or both SW2 DP input connectors.

4. Connect a DisplayPort output device to the switcher output connector.

5. Connect your computer to one of the following control ports to configure and control

the switcher via SIS commands:

• RS-232 port — Pins 1, 2, and 3 of the Remote port for Serial RS-232 control (See

Wiring for RS-232 Control on page 5 for connection procedures.)

• Config port — USB mini-B connector for USB control (See Connecting to the

USB Port on page 6 for connection procedures.)

6. (Optional) To enable auto-input switching, use a jumper to short pins 4 and 5 of the

Remote connector together (see Enabling Auto-input Switching on page 8).

7. If necessary, wire a 2-pole captive screw connector to your external power supply (see

Wiring the Power Connector [Optional] on page 10).

8. Power on the output device.

9. Connect power to the switcher.

10. Power on the input devices.

Power connector — Plug the provided external 12 VDC power supply into this 2-pole,

3.5 mm captive screw connector.

ATTENTION:

• If not provided with a power supply, this product is intended to be supplied by a

power source marked “Class 2” or “LPS” and rated 12 VDC, minimum 1.0 A.

• Si le produit n’est pas fourni avec une source d’alimentation, il doit être

alimenté par une source d’alimentation de classe 2 ou LPS, avec une tension nominale 12 Vcc, 1,0 A minimum.

Input connectors — Connect DisplayPort input devices to these female DisplayPort

connectors. Equalizers on the inputs compensate for a poor source signal and allow cable runs of up to 25 feet (7.6 m). Mini DisplayPort devices are supported with the appropriate adaptors and cables (not provided). See Wiring the DisplayPort

Connectors on page 9 for the connector pin assignments.

Output connector — Connect a DisplayPort output device to this female DisplayPort

connector. See Wiring the DisplayPort Connectors for the pin assignments.

EDID Store LED — This tri-colored LED lights to indicate EDID storing status:

• Red — EDID storing has been enabled (DIP switch 1 is set to Stored [down]) but

external EDID has not been stored and the factory default EDID is still present.

• Green — EDID storing has been enabled and the switcher is using external EDID.

• Amber — The EDID Store button has been pressed and the switcher is currently

storing EDID. (After the EDID is stored, the LED turns green.)

EDID Store button — Press this recessed button (using a pointed stylus or a small

screwdriver) to store the EDID of the connected display device (see Storing the

display EDID on page 15).

EDID DIP switch (switch 1, on the left) — Set this DIP switch to Stored (down) to

enable EDID storing. This is the default position (see Storing the display EDID).

Set the switch to Default (up) to use the SW DP2 default EDID of 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio.

DIP switch 2 (on the right) is not used.

Remote connector — This 5-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector can be used for

RS-232 communication with the switcher and to enable auto-input switching.

• For RS-232 control, connect the Tx (transmit), Rx (receive) and G (ground) pins to

your computer serial port (see Wiring for RS-232 Control on the next page).

• To enable auto-input switching, short pins 4 and 5 of this connector together. In

auto-input switch mode, the switcher automatically switches to the active input (see

Enabling Auto-input Switching on page 8).
