Active Mini Displayport to VGA Adatper Cable

Overview
 

Mini DisplayPort to VGA

The STC Mini DisplayPort (or DisplayPort) to VGA active adapter enables the connection of your Mini DisplayPort supported computer to a VGA (HD-15) supported monitor or other VGA display.

DisplayPort to VGA adapter offers superb performance and reliability. Manufactured to the latest DisplayPort and VGA specifications, this cable is engineered using advanced active cable technology for the highest performance and quality.

Connect the Mini DisplayPort (mDP male) to your computer and plug your existing VGA cable into the VGA (female) adapter. Setup is complete, no software required. The active circuitry built into the mDP to VGA cable adapter seamlessly converts the Mini DisplayPort's video signal into a crystal clear VGA video signal. The adapter requires no external power. Power-saving standby mode is initiated through the Mini DisplayPort source or monitor's status and automatically detected by the adapter.

Resolution Support

It supports VGA analog resolutions of up to 1920x1200 (WUXGA), 60Hz

3 monitor display configurations powered by AMD Eyefinity Multi-Display Technology

Standby Mode

Reduces power consumption when the adapter is not in use and is ideal for energy conservation

The STC DisplayPort to VGA cable adapter enables the connection of your DisplayPort supported computer to a VGA (HD-15) supported monitor or other VGA display. It supports VGA analog resolutions of up to 1920x1200 (WUXGA), 60Hz and is simple to setup and easy to use. Connect the DisplayPort (male) end of the connector to your computer and plug your existing VGA cable from the monitor into the VGA (female) adapter. Setup is complete, no software required. The circuitry built into the DisplayPort to VGA cable adapter seamlessly converts the DisplayPort's video signal into a crystal clear VGA video signal. The latching DisplayPort connector keeps the adapter securely in-place.

Customer Question & Answer

Question: I have a AMD 6970, and i want to connect 3 monitors, so should this connect the 3rd monitor which is VGA?, I am currently using 1 HDMI and 1 DVI

Answer: It works with my 7970. I had 1 HDMI, 1 DVI, and 1 VGA. The reason I said "had" is because I got a new monitor that supports DisplayPort naively.
             If you are using this for browsing, VGA should be fine, but if it is for gaming then I would suggest getting a monitor that supports DisplayPort as a native input.

Question: Is this different from the following which doesn't seem to work w my MacBook air?

Answer: Mine did not work on my laptop. Not sure why but it was worth a try at that price. Good luck...

Question: I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but does this work with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit? Most of the adapters I see for Mini Displayport are Mac

Answer: It will work just fine on any PC.

Question: Is It work with Microsoft Surface Pro?

Answer: Yes, it did, but when it basically fell apart, it no longer did. The part that attaches to the Surface fell apart, leaving me to pry it out of the port with pliers.

Customer Feedback

"I have a 3-monitor setup (ATI Eyefinity) and I also acquired a smaller TV that sits above on a shelf above my monitors. So I bought this little Mini Displayport to VGA adapter to hook up my TV and it WORKED! I can have a game running in Eyefinity as well as have my TV display all of my temp monitoring software and other gadgets.
So, if anyone is looking for an adapter that works for this kind of setup, THIS ONE WORKS! I read many other reviews on other products saying that they were not "active" and it failed to produce results. This product, however, will do the job.
Hope this helps!
And a side note: make sure you get the correct adapter with the correct connections. This one is for a Mini DisplayPort and VGA."

 

"Works great. I have it plugged into my Surface Dock 4 (or whatever it's called when Surface Pro 4 was released).
Initially, I bought a mini - display port 3-way adaptor (HDMI, VGA, DVI) but if connected that multi adaptor to the Docking Station, my 2nd monitor image would not display correctly. The solution was connecting the 3-way adapter directly to the Surface Pro, but I wanted a single monitor cable instead and only have to worry about connecting/unplugging the docking to the Surface Pro. Which I did accomplish with this adapter"

 

"My card is an XFX 7950, with 2 DVI, 1 HDMI, and 2 mini-DP outputs. I was looking forward to having a three-screen setup - since the card said it could support four monitors I didn't think this was a problem, but I soon realized I couldn't simply use the 2 DVI and HDMI at the same time.
For people looking to add a third monitor to an ATI/AMD system: this adapter works. It was the least expensive active adapter on Amazon for about $6 when I bought it. Due to reviews, I was a little concerned about the build quality and to be honest it is a little flimsy. If I was using this on a laptop, I would get a more rugged model, but since I'm using this on a desktop that doesn't get moved often I don't foresee any problems."

 

"This will work for a 3 monitor setup for Windows 7 as long as you use a VisionTek Products ATI Radeon HD 5450 512MB DDR3 PCI-E DVI Dual Plus Mini Display Port Graphics Card 900530. I did switch to a DVI adapter only because our monitors had DVI capability. But this one works well with Eyefinity software because it is an ACTIVE adapter. Must have an ACTIVE adapter for use on Eyefinity and windows 7 software cards."
