Active DP-to-VGA adapter

The StarTech DP2VGA2 is an active DisplayPort to VGA converter that lets you connect a VGA monitor or projector to a DisplayPort-equipped computer. It requires no drivers and draws power directly from the DisplayPort connection. The compact dongle measures 8.90 inches end to end.

Office and meeting-room setups

This adapter suits users who need to add a legacy VGA display to a modern DP source for office applications or video conferencing. It does not carry audio, so a separate connection is needed for sound. Buyers who need an audio path or a higher digital resolution should look at a different solution.

1920 x 1200 maximum analog resolution

The converter supports analog resolutions up to 1920 x 1200, matching the native resolution of many older widescreen monitors and projectors. This single figure determines whether your display will work at its best quality.

Questions about this item

Is this the right adapter if I need to connect a VGA monitor to a DisplayPort laptop?

Yes, it has a latching DisplayPort male plug on one end and a VGA 15-pin female port on the other, letting you attach a VGA display directly to a DP-equipped computer.

What resolution will I actually see on a 1920 x 1200 monitor?

The adapter supports a maximum analog resolution of 1920 x 1200, so a compatible monitor will display up to that pixel count.

Does the DisplayPort connector carry audio to the VGA side?

No, the specification lists audio as not supported, so only video passes through the converter.
