StarTech DP2VGA3X5 Active DisplayPort to VGA Adapter
Overview
The StarTech DP2VGA3X5 is an active adapter designed to bridge the gap between modern DisplayPort 1.2 HBR2 sources and legacy VGA displays. This is critical for integrating older monitors or projectors into new workstation setups or extending the life of existing display infrastructure without requiring a full hardware refresh. It supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 at a 60Hz refresh rate, ensuring clear, usable video output for business applications, presentations, and general desktop use. The DP2VGA3X5 model is particularly useful in environments where DisplayPort output is standard but VGA input is the only option available on the display device.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a DisplayPort 1.2 output, including most modern laptops, desktops, and workstations. It connects to a VGA female port, making it suitable for a wide range of monitors, projectors, and video wall displays that utilize the VGA standard. It is designed to work with standard graphics drivers and does not require additional software installation.
Installation Notes
The adapter operates within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F) and requires 40%-85% RH operating humidity. Storage conditions should be between 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F). The compact design measures 9.3 inches in length and 1.5 inches in width, with a low profile height of 0.6 inches, minimizing clutter behind the connected devices.
