This DisplayPort to DVI adapter allows users to connect DisplayPort-enabled devices to DVI-D monitors, projectors, or displays. It functions as an active converter, meaning it requires power to convert the signal from DisplayPort to DVI. This makes it suitable for use with devices that do not support multi-mode DisplayPort signals, such as certain graphics cards. The adapter supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 and 1080p at 60Hz, making it ideal for connecting to high-resolution displays without the need for additional hardware upgrades.
The adapter is compatible with a wide range of devices, including desktops, laptops, workstations, and docking stations. It works with both AMD and Nvidia graphics cards and is certified for use with AMD Eyefinity technology. This makes it a good choice for users who want to connect multiple displays or use high-end graphics cards with DVI monitors. The adapter supports EDID/DDC pass-through, ensuring that the connected display can communicate properly with the source device.
The design of the adapter is compact and includes a 5.7-inch attached cable for added convenience. It features a latching DisplayPort connector and a screw locking mechanism on the DVI side to prevent accidental disconnections. These design elements make it more reliable and easier to use in environments where stability is important. The adapter is also compatible with various operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Ubuntu, and does not require any additional software or drivers.
The DP2DVIS adapter is particularly useful for users who want to extend their display setup without replacing their existing DVI monitors. It is tested with DVI cables up to 25 feet in length, providing flexibility in setup configurations. However, it is important to note that this adapter only supports single-link DVI and may not be suitable for higher resolution or dual-link DVI displays.
