This one.  I don't think anything else is needed.

Hey guys.

 

So, I ended up getting a wx7100 and a new edp panel, but I need some help about the panel.

I got the edp cable, but the connector to the panel is different. Searching online a bit, it seems

I have to use an interposer (P/N 75V7G) and a second cable (P/N 64HMY) like this

In forums they say that the interposer is an edp-to-lvds converter (?)

Is this correct or do I just have to use a converter on the edp cable? Am I missing something?

 

Thank you
