DisplayPort 1.2 to VGA cable

This 6.5 ft active cable connects a DisplayPort 1.2 source to a VGA monitor or projector. It supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080p at 60Hz. The male-to-male connectors feature nickel plating and locking clips for a secure link. No external power adapter is needed for operation.

Active chipset and plug-and-play design

The built-in active chipset enables compatibility with AMD Eyefinity multi-display setups. It removes the need for separate active adapters or extra cables in a chain. Nickel-plated contacts resist corrosion over repeated insertions. The locking clips prevent accidental disconnection during use.

Suited for legacy display connections

Ideal for users linking a modern DisplayPort output to an older VGA-only screen or projector. The single-cable layout simplifies desk routing in office or home-office environments. Not suitable for connecting a VGA source to a DisplayPort monitor. Buyers needing higher resolutions or refresh rates should look at a different solution.

Questions about this item

Will the active chipset in this 901216 cable need replacement over time?

The active chipset is built into the cable assembly and has no user-serviceable parts; if signal quality degrades the entire cable would be replaced.

What resolution limit appears first during extended use?

The cable supports up to 1920 x 1080p at 60Hz; that ceiling is fixed by the active chipset and does not change with sustained operation.

Does the cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when run all day?

No supplementary power is required and the copper conductors with nickel-plated connectors run passively, so heat and power draw remain minimal during continuous use.
