FAQs
Can I use this cable to connect any HDMI device to a DVI monitor?
Yes, this cable works with any HDMI source device (gaming consoles, computers, media players) and DVI-D monitors or displays. It does not require drivers or additional software—simply connect both ends for immediate video output.
What is the difference between DVI-D and DVI-I connectors?
This cable features DVI-D (Digital only), which supports digital video signals. DVI-I connectors include both digital and analogue pins. Ensure your display has a DVI-D or DVI-I port; DVI-A (analogue only) is not compatible.
Is the 2-metre length suitable for my setup?
The 2-metre length is ideal for most desktop and home theatre setups. If you need a longer run, measure the distance between your HDMI source and DVI display before purchasing.
Will this cable support 1080p or higher resolutions?
Yes, the dual-link DVI-D connector supports resolutions up to 1920×1200. Video quality depends on your display and source device capabilities.
Does this cable require any external power or drivers?
No, this is a passive cable with no power requirements or driver installation. Plug both connectors in and the video signal is transmitted immediately.
Is this cable compatible with HDMI 2.0 or later?
Yes, this cable works with any HDMI version on your source device. The dual-link DVI-D output supports the video standards that legacy DVI displays can handle.
