Corn Electronics Display Emulator Plug 2-Pack 1920x1080 3840x2160 60Hz

SKU CH-88RZ-XE5FW

Two dummy HDMI plugs emulate 1920×1080 or 3840×2160 displays at 60 Hz for headless GPU tasks and VR streaming

  • Works with any HDMI graphics card for headless GPU tasks
  • Supports 1920x1080 and 3840x2160 at 60Hz for remote desktop
  • No drivers or power needed — plug in and forget
  • Enables GPU-accelerated remote access on Windows, OSX and Linux
  • Compatible with Oculus Rift and HTC Vive virtual desktop

Two-pack HDMI display emulator

This two-pack provides HDMI display emulator plugs that present a virtual monitor to any graphics card with an HDMI output. Each plug reports a maximum resolution of 3840x2160 at 60 Hz so the GPU remains active without a physical screen attached. The adapters require no drivers, no configuration and no external power.

Suits headless GPU workloads and VR streaming

The plugs are intended for cryptocurrency mining rigs, render nodes or remote-desktop hosts that need the GPU to initialise without a connected display. They also enable Virtual Desktop streaming to Oculus Rift and HTC Vive headsets. Builders who need a real video signal passed through to a physical monitor or who require a different connector type should look elsewhere.

3840x2160 at 60 Hz reported resolution

The single specification that decides fit is the EDID resolution of 3840x2160 at 60 Hz advertised to the operating system. If your application requires a higher refresh rate, a different resolution or a non-HDMI interface, these plugs will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Corn Electronics display emulator plug draw when running continuously?

The plug requires no external power cable and draws only the minimal HDMI port current needed to maintain the EDID handshake, so it adds virtually no load to the GPU.

What must I already have for the emulator to function?

A graphics card with an available HDMI output is all that is required; the dummy plug works with Windows, macOS and Linux without drivers or configuration.

Will the 1920x1080 60Hz emulator interfere with an older monitor I keep connected on another port?

No, each plug acts independently as a 1920x1080 60Hz display, so the GPU simply sees an additional screen and leaves the existing monitor unaffected.
