Portable analyser can test HDMI, HDBaseT devices
A new member of the quantumdata 780 series handheld test instruments has been introduced by Teledyne LeCroy. The 780E Multi-Protocol Analyser / Generator is equipped with DisplayPort input and output ports making it capable of testing HDMI, HDBaseT and DisplayPort devices and distribution networks including HDCP 2.2 verification.
The 780E offers the broadest feature set available in a portable instrument, supporting tests for video, audio, protocols and the auxiliary channels.
The instrument can run quick verification tests on distinct devices of any type (sources, repeaters, sinks) as well as entire video distribution networks, including heterogeneous networks comprising a mix of HDMI, DisplayPort and HDBaseT devices.
No other test instrument can address these applications and the 780E supports them in a way that offers quick time to insight in diagnosing complex video distribution networks.
Both the DisplayPort interfaces, which support link rates up to 5.4 Gb/s on 1, 2 or 4 lanes, and the 600MHz HDMI interfaces support verification of HDCP 2.2 authentication on sources and sinks (displays).
In addition, the instrument’s Auxiliary Channel Analyser (ACA) utility enables you to monitor the HDCP 2.2 transactions in the same way the HDCP 1.4 transactions can be monitored currently on the existing 780 models.
