Vivolink VLHDMICTL2 emulatore EDID 3840x2160 18 Gbit/s nero

The Vivolink VLHDMICTL2 EDID emulator lets you manage HDMI EDID data, control output resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 and handle audio settings between source and display. The compact device supports 18 Gbit/s bandwidth, includes an HDMI video port and a USB Type-C connector, and is powered with low consumption (2.4 W). Front-panel DIP switches provide direct control of EDID, HDCP behavior and CEC pass-through to help achieve compatibility across connected devices.

Advantages

The VLHDMICTL2 provides straightforward, hardware-level EDID emulation and resolution control via front DIP switches without the need for software. An HDCP on/off option improves interoperability when chaining multiple devices by allowing the unit to present as non‑HDCP compliant. The device’s 18 Gbit/s bandwidth and support for 4K (3840 x 2160) ensure compatibility with high-resolution sources and displays in a compact enclosure.

Suitable for

• Setting and locking EDID information between HDMI sources and displays
• Forcing compatible resolutions and audio formats during installations or troubleshooting
• Integrating into AV setups where HDCP handling and CEC pass-through need to be controlled
• Use in small AV racks, meeting rooms, or point-to-point HDMI connections

How to use

Install the VLHDMICTL2 between the HDMI source and the display using the HDMI port and, if required, connect the USB Type-C as specified by your system. Configure desired EDID, HDCP behavior and CEC pass-through using the DIP switches on the front panel. After setting the switches, power cycle connected equipment if necessary to apply the new EDID and HDCP state. Verify the output resolution and audio on the display and adjust switches again if a different EDID profile or HDCP state is required.

Recommendations

Use the HDCP off option only when required to resolve compatibility issues in multi-device chains; disabling HDCP may affect protected content playback. When changing DIP switch positions, follow source and display manufacturer guidance and power cycle devices to ensure settings take effect.
