HDMI-to-VGA active adapter cable

The Tripp Lite P566-003-VGA connects an HDMI source such as a computer, cable box or Blu-ray player to a VGA monitor, projector or television. It lets you keep using an existing VGA display instead of buying a new HDMI screen. The three-foot male-to-male cable requires no software or drivers for basic operation.

Resolution and power limits

The adapter supports video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz. If the HDMI source cannot supply enough power through the port, a USB Micro-B cable must be connected to a USB charger or computer port; that cable is sold separately. Foil and braid shielding protects the signal from EMI and RFI noise.

Replaces a passive cable or dongle

This active converter replaces a simple passive cable or dongle when the source device does not output a native VGA signal. The jump is worth it when you need to drive a VGA display from a modern HDMI-only output without upgrading the display itself. The low-profile HD15 connector fits tight spaces where bulkier adapters would block adjacent ports.

Questions about this item

Which length should I pick for a desk setup?

This model is 3 ft long; choose it when the HDMI source sits close to the VGA display.

What resolution will I actually get on my monitor?

The adapter delivers up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz, so 1080p and WUXGA displays run at their native refresh rate.

Does the HDMI plug need a specific port version to work?

It connects to any standard HDMI output; the active converter handles the signal translation without requiring a special HDMI revision.
