Description

StarTech MDP2HDW Passive Mini Displayport TO HDMI Adapter

Overview

The StarTech MDP2HDW is a passive adapter designed to bridge the gap between Mini DisplayPort sources and HDMI displays. This adapter is crucial for integrating legacy or specialized Mini DisplayPort-equipped devices, such as certain laptops or workstation graphics cards, into environments that primarily utilize HDMI monitors or projectors. It ensures signal compatibility without requiring external power, simplifying deployments in tight spaces or where power outlets are scarce. The MDP2HDW is ideal for extending a desktop or displaying video content from a Mini DisplayPort source to an HDMI-compatible screen, supporting resolutions up to 1920x1200.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a Mini DisplayPort output. It is designed to work with standard HDMI displays, monitors, and projectors. For systems requiring active signal conversion, a powered adapter may be necessary. The passive nature means it relies on the Mini DisplayPort's native DisplayPort++ (Dual-Mode) capability to output an HDMI signal. Ensure your Mini DisplayPort source supports DisplayPort++ for this adapter to function correctly.

Installation Notes

The adapter operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F) and humidity levels of 40% to 85% RH. Storage temperatures should be kept between -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). The compact design, with a product length of 6.7 inches and a weight of just 1.0 oz, minimizes clutter and strain on ports.
