Connect a DisplayPort computer directly to a DVI monitor or projector with an active 1.8m (6ft) cable supporting up to 1920 × 1200.

Active conversion

Works with standard DisplayPort and DP++ sources, including graphics hardware that cannot output a native DVI signal.

Direct cable connection

The integrated 1.8m (6ft) cable connects directly from DisplayPort to single-link DVI-D without a separate adapter or DVI cable.

Up to 1920 × 1200

Supports one DVI display at up to 1920 × 1200, including 1080p, with compatible equipment.

What to know

This one-way cable connects a DisplayPort source to a DVI display. DVI carries video only, so audio requires a separate path. It is not compatible with Apple Cinema Display models, and it does not convert DVI output to DisplayPort input.

Australian supply and warranty: Supplied by DeviceDeal as an Australian-market product with the official 3-year StarTech.com manufacturer warranty in Australia. Keep your DeviceDeal tax invoice; terms, eligibility and product assessment apply.
