Operating the DisplayPort KVM Extender over CAT-7
Hot-Plug Detect (HPD)
The DisplayPort KVM Extender over CAT-7 has an HPD button on the front of the Receiver
unit. Pressing this button will cycle the HPD (Hot-Plug Detect) line on the display (sink)
device. This HPD button provides the same effect as disconnecting then reconnecting the
DisplayPort cable from the Receiver unit. Cycling the HPD line will cause the Receiver unit
to re-read the EDID of the display and send it back to the DisplayPort source.
