Connect a DVI monitor to Mini DisplayPort

This six-foot cable links a Mini DisplayPort source to a DVI-D single-link display without an extra adapter. It supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 or 1080p for clear video output. The male-to-male design keeps the connection secure for desktop or portable use. Compatible with Surface Pro and MacBook devices that include a Mini DisplayPort.

Passive conversion holds steady at full resolution

The cable uses a passive circuit that maintains the rated 1920x1200 resolution during extended sessions. Signal integrity stays consistent because the conductors are sized for the full six-foot run. No external power is required, so the link behaves the same whether the session lasts minutes or hours. Build quality prevents intermittent flicker under sustained load.

Replaces a separate adapter plus cable combo

Users who currently carry a Mini DisplayPort-to-DVI dongle and a DVI cable can consolidate to this single unit. The jump is worth it when desk space is tight or when a permanent install needs fewer failure points. It does not suit setups that need dual-link DVI bandwidth or audio over DVI. Buyers needing longer reach or active conversion should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 ft cable draw enough power from the Mini DisplayPort to run all day without overheating?

The passive cable uses the port's own power and carries no active electronics, so it produces no measurable heat during continuous use.

What port must my computer already have to use this Mini DisplayPort male connector?

Your computer needs a Mini DisplayPort output; the cable plugs directly into that port with no extra adapter required.

Will this cable drive my older DVI-D single-link monitor at 1920x1200?

Yes, the DVI-D single-link male connector supports up to 1920x1200 resolution, matching the monitor's native capability.
