- 100 meter extension distance for two 1920x 1200 screens or a single high resolution screen to 2560 x 1600
- Supports Mac Cinema and Thunderbolt Display (2560 x 1440)
- USB 2.0 Hi-Speed for mass storage devices plus:
- Keyboard, mouse tablet and touch
- S/PDIF, and analog audio
Perfect digital video, real time control
The system is uncompressed, where by every pixel of every frame are sent without loss. The receiver supports DisplayPort Dual Mode (DP++) which means that monitors which only support HDMI or DVI can be used (with the correct adapter cable).
Single CATx cable
Video, USB 2.0 (HID-only) and audio all pass along a single cable. A second CATx cable is required for the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 extension.
Up to 150 meter extension distances
Distance is dependent on the monitor resolution, number of monitors, cable type and the number of connection breaks for patch panels and wall plates. See table below for details.
USB HID
Enables connection of any USB human interface device from mice and keyboards through to graphics tablets, jog shuttles, joysticks and 3D explorers. Mass storage devices and isochronous devices such as webcams and headsets can be used through the transparent USB 2.0 Hi-Speed port.
EDID management
The system has intelligent EDID management to allow the true characteristics of the monitor to be passed back to the computer.
Plug and play
The AdderLink XD522 extender is delivered in a zero config state so you can plug the units in and start working with them straight away. There is no need for drivers or software to be installed.
Digital audio
Supports the S/PDIF interface via an optical 3.5mm jack socket (dual use with analog audio via mini Toslink).
HD quality analog audio
HD audio quality (stereo channel 24 bit sampled at 96kHz) is available to transfer audio from local to remote for Line In / Line. Microphone in and headphone use cases ar also supported.
Hardware compatibility
All computers with DisplayPort, USB, audio.
DisplayPort interface
The system supports resolutions to a maximum of 2560 x1600 or two 1920 x1200 screens. The receiver unit supports DisplayPort Dual Mode (DP++) also. DPCP and HDCP are not supported.
USB 2.0
Supports up to six USB 2.0 devices (low or full speed). The system does not allow non-HID devices on ports marked “A”. Isochronous devices are supported (i.e. USB audio or video devices) on the Hi-Speed link only marked “B”.
Digital stereo audio
The system delivers analog stereo audio (Line in, Line out) and supports microphone input and headphones. It also delivers S/PDIF (optical input) via a 3.5mm jack line in connector (mini Toslink).
RS232
RS232 can be passed between the units to a maximum baud rate of 115K2 via the options port.

Important Extension distance Information
Recommended cables are CAT7 shielded foiled twisted pairs:
Daetwyler 7702 Flexible patch cable
Daetwyler 7120 Bulk cable
| Resolution | Cable Type | Patch connections | Distance |
| 2560x1600@60Hz or two 1920x1080@60Hz | CAT7 Bulk (trunk) | 0 | 100 metres |
| 2560x1600@60Hz | CAT7 Patch | 2 | 80 metres |
| 2560x1600@60Hz | CAT6a | 2 | 70 metres |
| 2560x1600@60Hz | CAT5e | 2 | 60 metres |
| Single 1920x1080@60Hz | CAT5e | 2 | 150 metres |
Note:
Distances are achieved using single lengths of trunk/bulk cable with two 3 meter CAT7a patch cables. For each additional break/patch connection reduce distance by 5 meters. Preferably patch cables should be of type CAT7a and less than 2 meters. Patch cables over 2 meters must be CAT7a.
