Availability: In stock

The Extron EDID 121 is an EDID emulator for 8K HDMI sources that supports up to four EDID memory blocks to accurately convey sink capabilities. Featuring EDID Minder® Plus, an Extron-exclusive technology, it supports additional memory blocks needed for advanced display capabilities such as resolutions up to 8K, including 5K for Microsoft® Teams Front Row applications. The EDID 121 provides automatic and continuous EDID management and ensures content is at the optimal resolution and frame rate upon power up. Pre-stored EDID information is sent to a source based on the user-selected resolution and refresh rate. The emulator can also capture and store the EDID profile from a connected display. It supports signals up to 8K/60 at data rates up to 40.1 Gbps with HDR.

Extron EDID 121 Key Features

Supports video resolutions up to 8K/60
Supports ultra-wide aspect ratios, including 21:9 and 5K
Enhanced 512-byte EDID emulation - Supports EDID files structured with up to four data blocks, enabling increased pixel counts, HDR parameters, and higher luminance levels. This capability allows compatibility with a wider selection of advanced 5K and ultra-wide display resolutions.
EDID Minder® Plus automatically manages EDID communication between connected devices - EDID Minder Plus supports additional memory blocks for displays that convey advanced features via both EDID and DisplayID for proper management of the extended EDID information required to reliably display and distribute 5K and 21:9 aspect ratio content.
Selectable resolutions and refresh rates - Pre-stored EDID is communicated to the source based on a user-selected resolution and refresh rate.
EDID capture mode - When connected to a display, the EDID 121 offers the option to capture and store EDID from the display device, including 5K resolutions for environments such as Microsoft® Teams Front Row.
Supported HDMI 2.1 specification features include data rates up to 40.1 Gbps, HDR, Deep Colour up to 12-bit, 3D, HD lossless audio formats, and CEC pass-through
Support for HDR - High Dynamic Range video - Enables greater contrast range and wider Colour gamut by providing the necessary video bandwidth, Colour depth, and metadata interchange capability for HDR video.
Supports multiple embedded audio formats - The EDID 121 is compatible with a broad range of multi-channel audio signals, providing reliable operation with HDMI sources.
HDCP 2.3 compliant - Ensures display of content-protected media and interoperability with other HDCP-compliant devices.
User-selectable HDCP authorisation - Allows the unit to appear HDCP compliant or non-HDCP compliant to the connected source, which is beneficial if the source automatically encrypts all content when connected to an HDCP-compliant device. Protected material is not passed in non-HDCP mode.
HDCP Visual Confirmation provides a green signal when encrypted content is sent to a non-compliant display - A full screen green signal is sent when HDCP-encrypted content is transmitted to a non-HDCP compliant display, providing immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on the display.
Automatic HDMI input cable equalisation - Actively conditions incoming HDMI signals to compensate for signal loss when using long cables, low quality cables, or source devices with poor signal output.
Automatic Colour bit depth management - The EDID emulator automatically adjusts Colour bit depth based on the display EDID, preventing Colour compatibility conflicts between source and display. Optionally, the output video can be set to output 8-bit Colour depth.
HDMI to DVI Interface Format Correction - Automatically reformats HDMI source signals for output to a connected DVI display.
HDCP authentication and signal presence confirmation - Provides real time verification of HDCP status. This allows for simple, quick, and easy signal and HDCP verification through front panel LEDs and USB, providing valuable feedback to a system operator or help desk support staff.
Front panel USB configuration port
1" (2.5 cm) high, quarter rack width metal enclosure allows flexible, discreet installation
Includes LockIt® Plus cable lacing brackets - Securely fastens HDMI or USB-C® cables to a device, eliminating risk of disconnection.
Easy setup and commissioning with Extron's PCS - Product Configuration Software - Conveniently configure multiple products using a single software application.
Provides +5 VDC, 250 mA power on the output for external peripheral devices
External Extron Everlast® power supply included, replacement part #70-1175-01 - Provides worldwide power compatibility with high demonstrated reliability and low power consumption.
