What is the NovaStar MX_1xDP 1.4 Input Card for?
Choose this card when one DP 1.4 workstation, graphics engine or playback server must feed a documented 8K60 source path into an available IN slot of NovaStar MX2000 Pro or MX6000 Pro. The signal path is source → input card → MX chassis → output card, receiving cards and LED wall.
It is an input card, not a controller or LED-output expansion: the one DP input does not increase wall pixel capacity or determine receiving-card compatibility.
NovaStar MX_1xDP 1.4 specifications: one DP input at 8K60
The confirmed maximum is 7680 × 4320 at 60 Hz. This is the MX input-card choice for one high-resolution DP source when refresh rate matters as much as canvas size. Confirm the workstation or media-server output rather than assuming any 8K-labelled source will negotiate the required mode.
HDR10/HLG, custom resolutions and HDCP 2.3 backward compatibility are documented; interlaced input is not supported. NovaStar recommends a DP 8K 1.5 m cable and documents support up to 3 m.
Can MX_1xDP 1.4 fit your MX2000 Pro or MX6000 Pro source plan?
Yes, when an IN slot is available and the host, input-card model, slot number and firmware match the VMP project. MX2000 Pro has two input-card slots and MX6000 Pro has eight; this single-input card uses one slot while the output-card and screen map remain separate decisions.
How one DP 8K60 source reaches the LED wall through an MX chassis
One DP 1.4 workstation or media server can stay on a single source path without splitting the 8K canvas across two inputs. Confirm the source output mode, the recommended 1.5 m DP 8K cable and the documented 3 m maximum before the rack is placed; a longer route needs a specified transport solution.
The input card carries the source into the MX workflow; output cards, receiving cards and the cabinet map still determine the LED-side result.
MX_1xDP 1.4 8K60 vs dual DP and the mixed DP + HDMI card
Choose MX_1xDP 1.4 for one DP source at 8K60. Choose MX_2xDP1.4 for two independent DP sources at the documented 8K30 mode, or the mixed DP + HDMI card when connector diversity matters. The choice is source count and refresh, not LED output count.
NovaStar MX_1xDP 1.4 Input Card Manual, PDF and VMP Software
Use the model-named download page as the starting point, then verify the shared MX6000 Pro V1.5.0 input-card specification, the manual for the actual MX host and the matching VMP project version. The 8K60 path also requires careful DP source and cable validation.

MX_1xDP 1.4 Input Card buying and commissioning FAQs
Does this card work in both MX2000 Pro and MX6000 Pro?
Yes, in an available input slot with matched host, card and VMP versions. The chassis slot count is different: two on MX2000 Pro and eight on MX6000 Pro.
Does this card add 8K LED output capacity?
No. It adds one 8K DP source path. LED output capacity comes from the host’s output cards, receiving cards and screen design.
Can I use an interlaced DP source?
No. The official input-card table lists interlaced signal inputs as unsupported.
When should I choose dual DP instead?
Choose dual DP when two independent DP sources matter more than one 8K60 path. Its documented 8K-class mode is 30 Hz, not 60 Hz.
MX_1xDP 1.4 Input Card order check
Before requesting a quote, confirm the source can output 8K60 over DP 1.4, the short cable route, the MX host slot and the separate LED-side map:
- Confirm the DP source can output 7680 × 4320@60 Hz
- Confirm an MX2000 Pro or MX6000 Pro IN slot is available
- Record the VMP project, host firmware and installed card versions
- Plan the DP 8K cable path
- Confirm the LED output map and receiving-card family separately
Send us the DP source model, required 8K60 mode, cable distance, host model and receiving-card or screen plan through our contact page. We can then confirm the 8K60 input path before you order.
