Designed for performance and reliability in professional environments, this compact splitter makes it effortless to share video content between two monitors without the complexity of multiple sources or software-based routing. Whether you’re delivering a polished presentation, running a control room display wall, or creating a simultaneous reference view for collaborators, this splitter ensures both displays show the same, pixel-perfect image in real time. Its plug-and-play nature means you can get up and running quickly, with minimal setup and no specialized drivers. In addition, the device’s durable construction and straightforward connectivity make it ideal for classrooms, trade shows, video demonstrations, and multipoint demonstrations where consistent visuals are essential.
- Seamless dual-output mirroring: Duplicates a single dual-link DVI-D signal to two independent displays, ensuring identical content, color, brightness, and pixel-for-pixel accuracy across both screens. This makes it perfect for presentations, bilingual displays, or any scenario where synchronized output matters. You won’t experience framerate drops or signal compression, preserving the integrity of high-resolution visuals with sharp edges, fine text, and vivid imagery. By delivering a true, unaltered feed to both displays, it helps maintain professional quality in sales demonstrations, engineering reviews, and collaborative workflows where accuracy is non-negotiable.
- Plug-and-play convenience: This is a driver-free, plug-and-play device that requires no software installation. Simply connect your dual-link DVI-D source to the splitter input and attach two DVI-D cables to the outputs leading to your displays. There’s no on-device configuration required, so you can set up a dual-monitor mirroring solution in minutes. The straightforward design reduces downtime and streamlines deployment in meeting rooms, training facilities, and retail kiosks, letting teams focus on content rather than setup.
- High-quality, reliable digital output: The splitter preserves the digital signal exactly as it’s produced by the source, delivering reliable, consistent video performance without color shifts or artifacts. This is particularly valuable for environments where precise text clarity, crisp graphics, and color fidelity are critical. The device minimizes signal degradation by maintaining clean paths from input to both outputs, which is essential for long cable runs or multi-display installations in conference rooms, classrooms, and studios. Whether you’re showing technical schematics, marketing materials, or live feeds, you’ll benefit from dependable, uniform visuals across both displays.
- Rugged, compact design for flexible installations: The splitter’s durable construction is built to withstand daily use in busy environments. Its compact footprint fits easily on a desk, in a cabinet, or alongside other AV gear, while providing sturdy performance without clutter. The solid housing helps protect internal components from minor bumps and dust, making it a practical choice for educational labs, corporate offices, and on-site demonstrations where space is at a premium and reliability is paramount. The device integrates smoothly with standard DVI-D cabling you already use, so there’s no need for expensive adapters or unusual connectors.
- Broad compatibility and straightforward connectivity: Designed to work with standard DVI-D sources and displays that support dual-link input, this splitter is a versatile addition to any AV setup. It does not require drivers and is compatible with common operating environments, ensuring consistent results regardless of whether you’re using Windows, macOS, or Linux-based systems. If your workflow involves multiple displays sharing a single source—such as a lecturer delivering content to two screens, a showroom presenting the same product video to attendees, or a technician verifying visuals across monitors—the Black Box Dual-Link DVI-D Splitter offers a dependable, widely compatible solution that minimizes compatibility concerns and simplifies installation.

How to install Black Box Dual-Link DVI-D Splitter, 1 x 2
- Connect the dual-link DVI-D output from your computer, media player, or other source device to the splitter’s input using a standard DVI-D cable.
- Attach two DVI-D cables from the splitter’s two output ports to the respective DVI-D inputs on your two displays you want to mirror.
- Power on the source device and then power on both displays. If the source is already active, you should see identical content appear on both monitors almost instantly.
- Configure your displays for mirroring if needed in the operating system settings. In most cases, the default behavior will mirror the source content to both screens without additional adjustments.
Frequently asked questions
-
Q: Does this splitter transmit audio along with video?
A: No. DVI-D carries video data only, so audio is not transmitted through this splitter. If audio is required, add a separate audio path from the source to the displays or speakers. - Q: What resolutions are supported by the Black Box Dual-Link DVI-D Splitter?
- A: The splitter preserves the digital video signal from the source and supports the resolutions that the source and displays can handle together. For best results, use displays and cables that are rated for the same resolution and refresh rate, and ensure both displays are compatible with dual-link DVI-D at the chosen settings.
- Q: Can I extend my desktop across two monitors with this device?
- A: No. This splitter is designed for mirroring a single source to two displays. If you need an extended desktop across two screens, you’ll want an adapter or USB/HDMI/DisplayPort matrix switch or a dedicated multi-monitor controller that supports extended mode.
- Q: Do I need any special software or drivers to use it?
- A: No. The Black Box Dual-Link DVI-D Splitter is a plug-and-play device that requires no drivers or software installation. Simply connect, power (if required by your source setup), and configure your displays as needed.
