[h1]Mini Displayport to Dual HDMI[/h1]



Zotac has made a new Adapter! Might be Usefull for some people here.

Sadly we don't know how it's working exactly. In the PDF brochure it's written its a "Passive Adaptor [No additional cables required]" So we can't be sure if it's a Passiv or Active adaptor. And if it works with 2 HDMI signals going out through one Displayport. Making it unable to use another DVI port. Or if it uses DP signal +Active Adaptor and let the DVI/HDMI ports untouched.

We gonna send it to outa space!

It could be the first of the expected MST hubs, using DisplayPort 1.2, which is possible to drive 4 displays @1080p off a single DisplayPort connector, I had seen specs for hubs to output to 4x DVI, but never any actual product.
If it is an MST hub, then it will be an active device, and thus will leave any of the other dvi/hdmi outputs alone :)
This of cause would only work with ATI 6xxx series, as the 5xxx uses DP 1.1

That is my guess anyways.
