Description

StarTech DP2VGA Active DisplayPort to VGA Adapter

Overview

The StarTech DP2VGA is an active adapter designed to bridge the gap between modern DisplayPort 1.2 sources and legacy VGA displays. This is critical for integrating existing VGA monitors into new systems or deploying systems where VGA compatibility is a requirement, such as certain industrial control panels or older presentation equipment. It ensures you can leverage your existing VGA infrastructure without needing to replace monitors.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a DisplayPort 1.2 output. It supports connection to a single VGA monitor, projector, or other display device. It is suitable for use with computers, laptops, and graphics cards outputting DisplayPort, enabling connection to VGA-equipped systems.

Installation Notes

The adapter operates within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). For long-term storage, maintain temperatures between -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). It requires a DisplayPort source and a VGA display. The integrated cable is 3.0 inches (7.6 cm) long.
