The official framework 13" display in the marketplace comes with a 40 pin eDP cable to connect the display to the motherboard and this cable is not sold separatly. My question is, is there a way to get this eDP cable (from a 3rd party)?
In Unofficial Guide to Aftermarket LCD Replacement I learned that the display is also known as the BOE NE135FBM-N41. BOE sells different screen sizes that have the same 40 pin eDP connector (like the 15" NE156QUM-NZ3). This 15" screen is perfect for my usecase and is hopefully a (relatively) safe bet, because it is succesfully tested by DIY perks [1]. But i can’t find this display with the eDP cable.
Where can I get a 15" BOE display with 40 pin eDP cable or are there any possebilities for cables that might work? Maybe from the manufacture, framework or a 3rd party?
To be clear, I know that only the framework 13" screen will fit in a framework 13 laptop, but I want to build something simular that the Triple-Screen Laptop from DIY perks.
Amazing that you be willing to manufacture the cable! That would help me (and many others) a lot. How far are you in the process of developing the cable? Keep me updated if you have a working product you are ready to sell!
Sounds like it.
I can’t even view the page with my region set to Canada. I can view other parts, but loading the eDP cable page forces my region to change. Using Firefox.
~edit~
Yep, Canadian region shows $0 for me too. Chromium browser worked.
In the USA here. I tried to order this very cable, because I believe I pinched mine last time I opened the laptop (display backlight temporarily stopped working), so I want a spare. I can add it to my cart, but unfortunately cannot continue to checkout:
Sorry, we only have stock of that item at our non-US warehouse. You can only purchase it when combined with a laptop order.
