    The Saphyr is fully HDCP compliant, meaning that you will be able to use the Saphyr to accept HDCP protected sources and route them to any HDCP protected outputs. As Analog Way is a licenced HDCP adoptor, this also means that the Saphyr is prevented from displaying any HDCP protected images on any non-HDCP compliant outputs (as is the case for all licenced HDCP compliant devices).
