Data Recovery Repeater

25-0563

Welcome!

Congratulations on your purchase of the DisplayPort 1.2 Data Recovery
Repeater, DPAX. This manual contains information that will assist you in
installing and operating the product.

Product Description

The new DisplayPort 1.2 Data Recovery Repeater, DPAX is an active repeater
for DisplayPort video signal to increase video transmission of a DisplayPort
signal up to combined length of 18m (59ft) over Premium grade DisplayPort
Cable.

3m (10ft) from the Source - 15m (49ft) to the Display at DP1.2

5m (16ft) from the Source - 20m (65ft) to the Display at DP1.1

DPAX complies with DisplayPort 1.2 standards, and supports Ultra High
Definition (up to 3840x2160) at 60Hz with auxiliary channel, MST function.

DPAX has been especially designed to work with Opticis fiber-optic
DisplayPort extenders, DPFX-100, DPFX-200 and M1-5000. So it can extend
transmission of DisplayPort signal even longer.

1-1 Welcome, Product Description

System Requirements for Setup

□ Hardware requirements

▪ You have to have a DisplayPort source and Display. It should

support the maximum graphic resolution feature of displays to
be connected.

▪ No special requirement of memory size, CPU speed and

chipsets, if you’ve already installed graphic card that supports
DisplayPort system properly on your Display Source.

▪ For proper initial trial of the entire platform with its application,

using a short length copper cable is recommended prior to
install with the product.

□ Software requirements

▪ No special restrictions, if you’ve already properly installed your

DisplayPort system.

□ Connection Advisory

▪ It is highly recommend that both Display Source and Display are

capable of High-resolution transmission. For Optical fiber
transmission, DPAX is specially designed to couple with Opticis
DisplayPort Extender models. Connecting with other Optical
fiber products can result in showing inappropriate display or
having undesired resolution.

Troubleshooting

The display shows only black screen.

- Ensure that all plugs and jacks used by provided power supplies are firmly
connected.

- Ensure that the DP ports are firmly plugged into the Display Source and
Display.

- Check if the DP source and Display are powered on and properly booted.

- Reset the system by de-plugging and re-plugging the DP cable, or by de­plugging and re-plugging the USB to DC plug cables that are plugged to
DPAX module or transmitter and receiver module if connected with optical
fiber.

- Re-boot up the system while connecting the module.

Screen is distorted or displays noises.

- Check if the graphic resolution is properly set. Go to the display properties

and tap the settings. Ensure that the resolution sets less than 4K UHD
(3840x2160) at 60Hz (YCbCr 4:4:4) refresh ratio.

- Reset the system.
