The Lightware DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro is a high-performance, dual-output DVI distribution amplifier engineered for professional AV installations requiring reliable signal splitting of high-resolution digital video. Its primary function is to take a single DVI-D input signal and amplify, reclock, and distribute it to two identical outputs, ensuring both displays receive a pristine, stable signal without degradation. A key feature is its full support for HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), allowing it to distribute protected content from sources like Blu-ray players, set-top boxes, and computers to compliant displays without interruption. This makes it indispensable in commercial applications such as digital signage, conference rooms, and control rooms where encrypted content must be displayed on multiple screens simultaneously.

The device incorporates advanced signal integrity features to maintain image quality over extended cable runs. It provides input cable equalization to compensate for signal loss from long source cables, and it re-clocks the signal at each output to eliminate jitter and ensure pixel-perfect reproduction. The DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro also includes comprehensive EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) management, allowing users to manually set or emulate specific EDID profiles to ensure optimal compatibility and resolution handshaking between the source and the displays. Its compact, fanless metal enclosure is designed for discreet installation behind displays or within equipment racks, and it can be powered via an included external adapter or directly from a DVI dual-link source in certain configurations, adding to installation flexibility.

For system integrators, this distribution amplifier solves the common challenge of reliably driving multiple high-resolution displays from a single source. By actively boosting and cleaning the signal, it extends the effective cable length and guarantees a consistent viewing experience across all monitors. The combination of robust HDCP handling, signal conditioning, and professional build quality makes the Lightware DA2DVI-HDCP-Pro a trusted, transparent component in the signal chain for demanding commercial and presentation environments.
