Las Vegas, NV, January 3rd, 2023 – Synaptics® Incorporated (Nasdaq: SYNA) today announced two quad-display systems on chip (SoCs): the VMM9430 is the industry’s first DisplayPort 2.1 (DP 2.1) multi-stream transport (MST) hub, and the DisplayLink DL-7400 is a universal display docking solution with built-in Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity. Both support ultra-high resolution and refresh rates of up to 4K @144 Hz with four simultaneous display outputs from a single IC — double the outputs available in current docking solutions — to enable the development of highly differentiated, future-proof devices for the hybrid office, while reducing overall design complexity and simplifying management.
CES 2023: See the VMM9430 & DL-7400 in action in the Venetian Hotel, Level 2 Exhibitor, Bellini Ballroom, #2105. Email press@synaptics.com for an appointment.
The VMM9430 and DL-7400 represent a complete refresh of the world’s dominant product line of video transport solutions,” said Saleel Awsare, SVP & GM at Synaptics. “Together, they allow organizations to not only be first to market with DisplayPort 2.1 but also to quickly provision three, and often four ultra-high-definition displays per user, all while maintaining both backward and forward compatibility and delivering the best-in-class performance, flexibility, reliability, and ease of management that only a proven docking solutions provider can enable.”
Targeted primarily at single-user desk environments, the VMM9430 offers DisplayPort link throughput of up to 80Gbps, which along with high refresh rates, delivers premium performance for bandwidth-intensive applications such as content creation, video production, and gaming. For the DisplayLink DL-7400, built-in IoT connectivity and flexible OS support across Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux devices makes it ideal for office hoteling and shared-desk models as companies increasingly transition to BYOD and CYOD policies.
"Synaptics joins a growing list of VESA member companies that have successfully certified their latest products to the more stringent DisplayPort 2.1 specification. With its higher bandwidth and transport tunneling efficiency as well as mandated support for VESA Display Stream Compression, DisplayPort 2.1 supports the needs of virtually every practical display application—including multi-display support at the highest resolutions—without compromising video performance,” said Bill Lempesis, executive director of the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA), which develops and administers the DisplayPort standard and compliance logo program. "We appreciate the support of Synaptics in helping to facilitate the rapid deployment of new VESA specifications like DisplayPort 2.1 to the docking station and adapter market."
