HDMI Headless 4K Display Emulator

Enjoy up to 4K resolution and full system responsiveness while remotely accessing a Mac or PC

View a remote machine’s desktop like you were sitting right in front of a connected display

Running your Mac or PC “headless” (no keyboard, mouse or monitor) is a great way to turn a machine into a network file and/or media server. Small form factor machines like the Mac mini or Intel NUC – as well the compact cylindrical Mac Pro 2013 - are ideal for placing into a space confined closet or rack. Remote accessing these machines used to mean being limited to viewing a hard to view, low resolution screen…even if you used an older monitor connected to the remote machine. With the NewerTech HDMI Headless 4K Display Emulator, you can now break free of limited 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024 resolution headaches when accessing macOS, Windows, and Linux machines remotely while viewing the desktop with up to full 4K 4096 x 2160 resolution.

Highlights

Restores remote access view – up to 4096 x 2160* (4K) resolution
Highly compatible - works with any macOS, Windows, and Linux machine with an open HDMI port
Plug and Play - no driver downloads or configuration

See & Do It All: A Full-Sized Remote Desktop

Also known as a HDMI dummy plug, the NewerTech HDMI Headless 4K Display Emulator “ghosts” a physical video connection of an external display to unleash the full display resolution capability of your headless server:

A Hassle: limited view of open windows…requires minimising stacked windows to find the one you’re looking for and then reopening it to full size.

WITH NewerTech Emulator at 3840 x 2160 Resolution
See it All: see all your windows open on the desktop and just zoom in each one to see fuller sized.

Maintains App Investment with Full Graphics Performance

If you have a substantial investment in earlier versions of creative production apps like Illustrator, InDesign, Creative Suite, and Final Cut Pro X, you know you need to run a Mac OS version that supports them. But, trying to use those apps remotely on a headless machine running OSX 10.12.x (Sierra) and earlier can cause choppy images and mouse lags because the GPU isn’t activated in those OS versions. Plugging the NewerTech HDMI Headless 4K Display Emulator into an open HDMI interface on your machine is the solution to eliminate hampered performance and a small desktop.

Easy to Use and Install

Using and installing the NewerTech HDMI Headless 4K Display Emulator might possibly be the easiest computing related task you’ve done. There’s no driver downloads or configuration… simply plug it into an open HDMI port on your remote Mac or PC and it immediately enables full performance capability on demand.

Real World Uses

Are you a server admin? Install software, reboot, and run updates while viewing your progress just like you normally would on a directly connected display.
Early adopter? Use a VR headset without needing a connected display.
Compatibility testing an app or website? Easily remote into an older machine and operating system.
