The TPA-MHL-8R is a Test Point Adapter (TPA) that allowing tests on MHL source and MHL display devices to be conducted.
Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) is a video interface derived from HDMI but targeted to provide an interface from mobile devices like smart phones to TVs or other displays. The MHL standard is designed to connect to smart phones by reusing the existing 5 pin micro-USB connector that many phones have rather than requiring a separate 19 pin HDMI connector. The MHL cable is micro-USB on the source mobile device and HDMI Type A on the other end.
Quantum Data offers a comprehensive suite of test solutions for testing MHL source and sink devices. The centerpiece of these solutions is the new test point adapter (TPA-MHL-8R) that converts MHL streams to HDMI and HDMI streams to MHL. The TPA-MHL-8R enables basic emulation, functional testing, protocol analysis as well as MHL compliance testing and HDCP compliance testing of your MHL source and sink devices. MHL source and sink compliance testing requires the Quantum Data 980 Protocol Analyzer. HDCP compliance testing requires the Quantum Data 882EA.
