DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter for legacy displays

This active cable connects a DisplayPort source such as a laptop or desktop to a VGA monitor or projector. The six-foot length gives flexible placement for home offices, classrooms or meeting rooms. It supports analog video up to 1920x1200 resolution without requiring an external power supply. The TAA-compliant build suits government and education procurement requirements.

Male-to-male connectors remove extra cables

Both ends are fixed male plugs, so no separate adapter or gender changer is needed. The active circuitry converts the digital DisplayPort signal to analog VGA inside the cable housing. This simplifies cabling and reduces failure points compared with a passive dongle plus a standard VGA cable. The single-piece design also saves desk space in tight workstation layouts.

Plug-and-play with no driver installation

Windows, macOS and Linux recognise the connection automatically when the cable is attached. Ensure the DisplayPort source actually outputs a VGA-compatible signal; some newer GPUs lack native analog support and will not work even with an active adapter. The 1.82-metre length fits most desk-to-monitor runs but may be short for ceiling-mounted projectors.

Questions about this item

Will the active converter chip inside the 54332 need replacement after extended use?

The active adapter cable has no user-serviceable parts; the converter chip is permanently moulded into the cable assembly and is not designed to be replaced.

What resolution ceiling will I hit first when driving a VGA monitor at 1920x1200 all day?

The cable is rated for a maximum of 1920x1200, so that resolution is the hard limit; sustained use at that setting stays within the specified capability.

Does the 6 ft cable run warm or draw extra power from the DisplayPort port during continuous operation?

The active adapter draws its operating power from the DisplayPort source and remains at normal temperature during continuous use; no external power supply is required.
