IDT Makes Daisy-Chaining Four DisplayPort Displays Simpler

By

IDT today announced the VMM1400 multi-monitor controller, which is the worlds first DisplayPort-based device to allow the user to connect up to four monitors to a single DisplayPort connection and support vertical image expansion. The IDT VMM1400 is configurable to operate in hub or daisy chain mode. In hub mode, the VMM1400 supports four HDMI or DVI outputs that can display on up to four monitors. In daisy chain mode, the ViewXpand device supports a connection to downstream devices (for example, another VMM1400) to form the daisy chain of monitors compatible with the current DisplayPort standard. The IDT VMM1400 multi-monitor controller is compliant with the VESA DisplayPort v1.1a and HDMI v1.3, and uses one DisplayPort input port and four HDMI or DVI output ports.

The DisplayPort standard, when combined with IDT innovation and expertise, continues to provide real-world solutions for IDT customers and consumers. Our breakthrough in multi-monitor display technology allows any system with a DisplayPort port to be instantly multi-monitor capable. Ultimately, multiple monitors is about fundamental productivity gains and improved user experiences, said Ji Park, vice president and general manger of the Video and Display Operation at IDT. When you spread a PC or consumer platform across up to four screens, you can see more, toggle windows less, make clearer decisions, accomplish more work in less time and generally have an improved user experience. IDT is delighted to be able to extend our innovation and expertise in digital media and display technology to the multi-monitor market.
