External HDMI adapter for USB 3.0 systems

The StarTech USB32HDPRO adds one HDMI 19-pin output to a Mac or Windows computer through a USB 3.0 port. It uses a DisplayLink DL3500 chipset with 512 MB DDR II memory to drive an extra monitor at up to 1920 x 1200 or 1080p resolution. The compact black dongle measures 0.80 x 2.20 x 3.50 inches and weighs 0.13 lb.

Upgrade from single-display or USB 2.0 video

This adapter replaces the need for an internal graphics upgrade when a second HDMI screen is required on a laptop, ultrabook or MacBook that has no spare video output. The jump is worth it when the host has USB 3.0 bandwidth available, because USB 2.0 cannot sustain 1080p playback. It does not suit buyers who need more than one additional display or who require resolutions above 1920 x 1200.

Steady 1080p playback under continuous use

The DL3500 chipset maintains stable 1080p video during extended sessions rather than only in short bursts. USB 3.0 throughput keeps frame delivery consistent for office applications, web content and video playback. The adapter draws power from the USB port so sustained load does not depend on an external supply. It is not intended for high-refresh gaming or colour-critical professional workloads.
