2.5 Dongles About Barco dongles are designed to allow Barco Display Controllers with a DisplayPort connector to a display with only a DVI input. All current Barco displays support direct DisplayPort connection. If video cable conversion is not required, you may bypass this section.
The passive Single-Link Dongle converts DisplayPort input signals to single-link DVI output signals. It is compatible with all Barco grayscale displays and up to 2MP color models. For color displays of 3MP and greater resolutions, the Dual-Link Dongle is necessary.
