Description

StarTech DVIVGAMFBK DVI to VGA Adapter

Overview

The StarTech DVIVGAMFBK is a passive adapter cable designed to bridge the gap between DVI-I sources and VGA displays. This 6-foot (1.6m) cable allows you to connect older VGA monitors or projectors to modern graphics cards or video sources that only offer DVI-I output. It's ideal for scenarios where you need to extend the life of existing VGA infrastructure or integrate new hardware with legacy display equipment without signal conversion hardware. The DVIVGAMFBK is suitable for office environments, conference rooms, or any setup requiring a direct DVI-I to VGA connection.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any DVI-I (29-pin) video source, including graphics cards and video output ports found on many desktop computers and workstations. It connects to any standard VGA (15-pin, High Density D-Sub) input on monitors, projectors, and displays. The passive nature of the adapter means it relies on the DVI source port to output a VGA signal, which is a common feature on many DVI-I ports.

Installation Notes

The connector plating is nickel, providing durability and resistance to corrosion for a stable connection. The cable jacket is constructed from PVC for flexibility and protection. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 80°C (32°F to 176°F), and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F). The adapter supports a humidity range of 15% to 65%.
