Direct DisplayPort to DVI connection

This three-foot cable links a DisplayPort source directly to a DVI-D display without a separate adapter. It suits users who want a tidy, single-cable link between a compatible computer and a monitor or projector.

Passive conversion needs DP++ output

The cable uses passive electronics, so the source must provide a DP++ (DisplayPort++) signal to emit the DVI clock. A standard DisplayPort-only port will not drive this cable, limiting use to graphics cards or laptops that explicitly support dual-mode output.

Simple plug-in with one common snag

Gold-plated male connectors on both ends seat securely in 20-pin DisplayPort and 25-pin DVI-D sockets, and no driver or software is required. The frequent issue is attempting the cable on a non-DP++ port, which yields no picture despite correct physical fit.

Questions about this item

What length should I pick for a tidy desk setup?

The cable is 3 ft long, designed to connect a DisplayPort source directly to a DVI display without extra adapters or long runs.

Will 1920x1200 work on my HP EliteBook 840 and external monitor?

Yes, the passive adapter supports up to 1920 x 1200 resolution when the source has a DP++ port and the monitor accepts DVI-D input.

Does the DisplayPort connector need a special port type to work?

It requires a DP++ (DisplayPort++) port on the video card or laptop; a standard DisplayPort-only port will not pass the DVI signal.
