Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter cable

This six-foot cable converts a Mini DisplayPort output to a VGA input for monitors or projectors. It is aimed at users who need to connect a laptop or desktop with an mDP port to a legacy display. The male-to-male design integrates the converter so no separate adapter is required. It supports video resolutions up to 1920x1200 or 1080p.

Check your Mini DisplayPort and VGA ports

Verify that the source device provides a Mini DisplayPort connector with 20 pins. The display must accept a high-density 15-pin VGA connector. This cable carries video only and does not transmit audio signals. Ensure your graphics hardware can drive the desired analog resolution before ordering.

Passive design runs without extra power

The converter draws operating power from the Mini DisplayPort source so no external supply is needed. In normal use the cable adds negligible heat to the system and produces no audible noise. Power draw is limited to what the mDP port can provide for the conversion circuitry.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 ft cable include both the Mini DisplayPort and VGA connectors, or do I need a separate adapter?

The cable has a 20-pin Mini DisplayPort male plug on one end and a 15-pin VGA male plug on the other, so no separate adapter is required.

Is the 1920x1200 resolution limit for the Mini DisplayPort input or the VGA output?

The cable supports a maximum digital input resolution of 1920x1200 and a maximum analog output resolution of 1920x1200 or 1080p.

Will I actually see 1920x1200 on my VGA monitor when using this 6 ft cable?

Yes, the built-in converter supports analog output up to 1920x1200 at 6 ft, provided your source and display both support that resolution.
