NovaStar H_1xHDMI2.0+1xDP1.2 Input Card
The H_1xHDMI2.0+1xDP1.2 Input Card combines one HDMI 2.0 and one DisplayPort 1.2 connector on a single card for NovaStar H2, H5, H9, H15, and H20 modular video wall processors, letting you connect either source type without swapping cards. Only one connector is active at a time, selectable from the Web interface (HDMI 2.0 is the default). HDMI accepts up to 3840×2160@60Hz and DP up to 4096×2160@60Hz (or 8192×1080@60Hz), both HDCP 2.2 compliant with accompanied audio and 144Hz support.

Ideal Applications
Perfect for a wide range of professional LED display scenarios
Flexible single-input slot that accepts either HDMI or DisplayPort sources
Venues where the source connector type varies event to event
Ultrawide LED ribbon content via the DP 8192×1080 mode
4K@60 playback from laptops, players, or media servers
Why choose the H_1xHDMI2.0+1xDP1.2 Input Card?
Mixed-connector cards solve a real-world problem: you rarely know in advance whether the next presenter shows up with HDMI or DisplayPort. By putting both an HDMI 2.0 and a DP 1.2 connector on one card and letting you pick the active input from the Web page, this card turns one slot into a connector-agnostic input that adapts to whatever source walks in the door.
You get the best of each standard: HDMI 2.0 for universal device compatibility at 4K@60, and DP 1.2 for higher pixel widths including the 8192×1080 ultrawide mode ideal for stage and architectural LED. Both paths are HDCP 2.2 compliant with accompanied audio and 144Hz support, so you gain flexibility without giving up image quality. Just remember only one connector can be used at a time.
