24-30pin connector for digital picture frame
« on: October 16, 2017, 06:10:51 pm »
Hey all I have 3 27" lcd panels that I will be making digital picture frames out of and I am looking for advice on what i can use in order to use only 1 cable going to the digital picture frame since it will be on the wall. The less wires the better.

Currently I will be purchasing the lcd controller boards for these lcd panels. These boards requires a 12vdc @ 4a to power it.

There is also the lvds cable that connects to the back of the panel itself. This usually has 5/3.3vdc going to it.

So does anyone have any possible suggestions for a type of cable that has enough pins for the lvds and power? I was thinking of using a HDMI-I cable but I am unsure if it could handle the 12vdc @4a? And keep in mind I would like to find a cable that's not very expensive since ill need about 15-25ft of it per digital picture frame.

The reason for just wanting one single cable going to the DPF is because i want to make the actual frame as slim as i can. Nobody likes a 1"+ off the wall sticking out.

Each board will connect to a separate panel. So i will have 3 boards in total.

The other way around is that i can house all the power, board and whatever else at the power source(floor, behind something) and just have a custom DVI-i breakout pcb made just for the lvds cable(being the DVI-i cable) going to the DPF. But like you've and others have said, it will be tricky yo get the lvds to stretch that far.
