How does HDCP revision 2.0 facilitate correct association between devices?
A. HDCP revision 2.0 uses device pairing and locality check. The device pairing is similar to the way a Bluetooth headset pairs to a phone, but it will be automatic and transparent to consumers. Locality check ensures that source devices can only transmit content to repeaters or display devices located in the same home or building. This is accomplished via a timing mechanism.
