AMD, MediaTek, and Realtek are the first companies to receive VESA DisplayPort 2.0 video source and sink devices UHBR (Ultra-High Bit Rate) certification
UHBR chipset reference source and display designs furnished by AMD, MediaTek, and Realtek successfully fulfilled the PHY, link, and interoperability testing prerequisites summarized in the DisplayPort 2.0 Compliance Test Specification (CTS). The more increased bandwidths boosted by UHBR support many use cases such as uncompressed 8K 60Hz HDR, 4K 240Hz HDR, two 4K 120Hz HDR, or four 4K 60Hz HDR displays through an individual cable. VESA also reported today that eligible VESA DisplayPort Authorized Test Centers (ATCs) are prepared to initiate testing and certification of UHBR end-products employing approved test equipment and reference sink and source devices for interoperability testing. An engineering demonstration of a reference source and sink device setup from AMD and MediaTek operating at UHBR link rates will be on display at the Display Week Symposium and Exhibition in San Jose, Calif., on May 10-12, 2022 at VESA booth #214 at the San Jose Convention Center.

Realtek — Syed Athar Hussain, VESA board vice-chairman and AMD CVP and display domain senior fellow Product innovators who accept the benefit of the DisplayPort UHBR Certification Program acquire the capability to utilize the VESA Certified DisplayPort logo on their products and evolve to reference devices for end-use product interoperability testing. Video source and display devices from AMD, MediaTek, and Realtek have already been certified, while more source and display devices from VESA member enterprises are undergoing certification. Additionally, numerous UHBR-capable cable products have also met certification standards and are commercially obtainable in several locations. — Yee-Wei Huang, spokesperson and vice president of the Multimedia Business Group at Realtek For more information about the products meeting certification standards through VESA, please visit the product database for the latest list of DisplayPort products. To ensure DisplayPort performance, look for the DisplayPort logo on VESA-certified DisplayPort products due to the strict standards of obtaining the certified logo.
