DisplayPort-to-HDMI converter for office displays

This passive adapter connects an HDMI monitor or projector to a computer with a DisplayPort++ output. It supports PC resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 and HDTV resolutions up to 1080p. Audio passes through for 5.1 surround sound. The 8.3-inch cable includes a latching DisplayPort plug for a secure fit.

Passive design requires a DP++ source port

The converter only works when the video card or laptop provides a DP++ (DisplayPort++) signal; a standard DisplayPort-only port will not drive it. No external power or software is needed. Because it is passive, it cannot convert signals from legacy DVI or VGA sources adapted to DisplayPort. The short cable keeps the desktop tidy but limits placement flexibility.

Maximum resolution 1920 x 1200 at 1080p

This single limit decides if the adapter fits the task. It handles typical office monitors and 1080p televisions but cannot drive 1440p, 4K or higher-refresh panels. Buyers needing those resolutions must choose an active converter rated for the higher bandwidth. The unit weighs 0.70 oz and measures 0.60 x 1.00 x 10.40 inches.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8.3 inch cable or a longer DisplayPort to HDMI adapter for my setup?

The 8.3 inch length keeps the connection tidy behind a monitor or laptop without excess cable slack.

Will the 1920 x 1200 and 1080p ratings let me run a 1440p display at native resolution?

The adapter caps at 1920 x 1200 for PC timings and 1080p for HDTV timings, so 1440p is not supported.

Does the passive DP++ design limit the HDMI output to single-link bandwidth?

A passive DP++ converter relies on the source to supply an HDMI signal, restricting output to single-link HDMI bandwidth.
