Compact HDMI-to-DVI adapter

The Rocstor Y10A171-B1 is an 8-inch adapter that converts an HDMI male plug into a DVI-D male connection. It lets you link an HDMI source cable to a DVI-D display input without replacing the cable. The short black pigtail keeps the join tidy on a desk or behind a monitor.

Replaces gender-mismatched cables

Swap this adapter in when you have an HDMI male-ended cable but need a DVI-D male end for the display. The change is worth it whenever re-cabling is impractical or the existing HDMI lead is already routed through trunking. It avoids buying a new hybrid cable for a single connection.

Passive single-link DVI limit

The adapter carries a single-link DVI-D signal, so it cannot drive dual-link resolutions or refresh rates beyond that standard. Audio and CEC channels from the HDMI side are not transmitted across the DVI interface. Longer total cable runs may degrade signal quality at higher pixel clocks.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the 8" cable need behind the HDMI port?

The 8" length adds roughly 20 cm of reach, so allow at least that much space behind the HDMI 19-pin male connector for a gentle bend without stressing the port.

Which end plugs in first to avoid bending the short cable?

Connect the HDMI 19-pin male end to the source device first, then attach your existing HDMI cable into the adapter's HDMI female socket, and finally plug the DVI-D male end into the display.

Will the gold-plated contacts on the HDMI 19-pin male and DVI-D male ends need cleaning?

Gold plating resists oxidation, so routine cleaning is not required; if dust builds up, a quick blast of compressed air is sufficient.
