Portable VGA-to-HDMI adapter

The StarTech VGA2HDU converts a VGA video source to an HDMI output while adding USB-powered audio. It connects a 15-pin VGA male plug and a USB-A male plug to a single HDMI female port. The unit is designed for laptops or desktops that lack a native HDMI socket.

Users with legacy VGA outputs

This adapter suits anyone connecting an older computer or dock to a modern HDMI display or projector. It is not for buyers who need to convert an HDMI source to a VGA input or who require a passive cable without USB power.

MS9282 chipset enables 1080p conversion

The built-in MS9282 chipset handles the format change and supports 1080p resolution. This component determines whether the converter will work with a specific VGA source and HDMI sink.
