Page 14 / 107 Section 2. General description
To avoid unnecessary HDCP encryption, Lightware introduced the HDCP
enabling/disabling function: the HDCP capability can be disabled on each input port
separately. If HDCP is disabled on an input port, the connected source will detect that the
sink is not HDCP capable, and turn off authentication. The source will not be able to
communicate with any of the devices (displays, repeaters, etc.) that are connected to the
routers output, therefore it could not see if they are HDCP capable or not.
Note 1: If a source detects that the input port is HDCP disabled, it will send only unprotected
content.
Note 2: If a source detects that the input port is HDCP enabled, it could send protected or
unprotected contents as well.
Note 3: HDCP protected content will not be sent to any input port with disabled HDCP setting.
Note 4: HDCP protected content will never be sent to a non HDCP compliant display.
Please note that if HDCP capability is disabled on an input port, the connected source
cannot send protected content to any display. If HDCP function is enabled on an input
port and the source sends encrypted signal, the non-HDCP compliant devices cannot
display the video. This new feature does not remove the encryption of an encrypted
signal, and does not void HDCP standard at all.
