The HDMI Display Emulator is a small, low-cost EDID Dummy Plug that emulates a high-resolution display to make the computer run "headless" (without a keyboard, mouse, and monitor). By simulating the presence of an attached display, the emulator allows you to use the full power of your graphics hardware, which might otherwise be disabled when there is no screen available. GPU hardware is often disabled until a display is attached, resulting in poor performance and a limited working resolution for remote users. With a Dummy Plug, it is possible to play games and stream remotely, as well as make use of native, high-resolution remote desktop access for workstations and provide stability to crypto-currency mining rigs.
