Vention DVI (24+1) Male to HDMI Female Adapter – Black

The Vention DVI (24+1) Male to HDMI Female Adapter is a compact passive adapter. It connects a DVI-D output on a desktop graphics card to an HDMI cable, enabling connection to any HDMI monitor, TV, or projector. The DVI (24+1) connector — also known as DVI-D Dual Link — carries a fully digital video signal. Because HDMI is also digital, the adapter needs no active conversion circuitry. Connect it to the DVI output, attach an HDMI cable, and your display appears automatically. It suits desktop PC users, home theatre enthusiasts, and IT teams connecting DVI-output hardware to HDMI displays without replacing graphics cards or adding docking hardware.

Key Features & Benefits

• Passive Adapter — No Power Required: DVI-D and HDMI both carry digital video signals. The adapter needs no active circuitry, external power, or drivers. It works entirely through the DVI signal, keeping setup simple and removing potential points of failure.
• DVI-D Dual Link (24+1) Compatibility: The 24+1 pin configuration supports DVI-D Dual Link. This carries sufficient bandwidth for resolutions up to 2560×1600, making the adapter compatible with the full range of DVI-D output devices.
• Plug-and-Play Operation: No drivers or software installation required. Connect the adapter to the DVI output, attach an HDMI cable, and Windows, macOS, and Linux detect the monitor automatically.
• Compact Form Factor: The adapter plugs directly onto the DVI port with no cable length. It adds minimal bulk and positions the HDMI cable at a practical angle for neat cable routing.
• Gold-Plated Connectors: Gold-plated DVI and HDMI contacts resist oxidation and corrosion. They maintain reliable electrical contact in permanent installations where the adapter stays connected for extended periods.
