Active DisplayPort to VGA adapter cable

This active adapter cable connects a DisplayPort-equipped PC to a VGA monitor or projector. The 3 ft length suits compact desk layouts and office multi-display setups. It supports video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 and uses an Analogix 9832 chipset. No audio signal is transmitted through the connection.

Check your source port and display input

Verify that the computer provides a standard 20 pin DisplayPort output with latching mechanism. The target display must accept a 15 pin high-density D-Sub VGA input. Because the cable is active it does not require a DisplayPort++ dual-mode source. Ensure the 3 ft reach matches the distance between your devices before ordering.

Low power draw with no fan noise

The active converter draws power directly from the DisplayPort source and operates without a fan. In normal office use driving a 1920 x 1200 display the cable runs cool and silent. Power consumption remains minimal and does not require an external supply. The short fixed cable reduces clutter and potential signal loss.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include both the DisplayPort and VGA connectors, or do I need a separate adapter?

The cable has a 20-pin latching DisplayPort male connector on one end and a 15-pin high-density D-Sub VGA male connector on the other, so no separate adapter is required.

Which resolution should I expect when connecting a 1920 x 1200 monitor?

The active converter chipset supports video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200, matching the monitor's native resolution exactly.

Will the 3 ft length reach from a laptop port to a monitor on the same desk?

At 3 ft the cable is designed for a tidy workstation install where the DisplayPort source and VGA display sit close together on the same surface.
