Connect your HDMI monitor or HDTV to a Display Port equipped computer. The Star Tech.com Display Port to HDMI adapter lets you connect an HDMI-enabled video display to a Display Port video source (e.g. Display Port video cards, etc.), eliminating the expense of having to upgrade your display for Display Port compatibility. This adapter supports display resolutions of up to 1920x 1200 allowing you to take full advantage of HDMI video capability. DP2HDMI is a passive adapter cable that requires a DP++ port (Display Port++), meaning that DVI & HDMI signals can also be passed through the port. This adapter allows for audio pass-through if supported by the video source. Please review the video source manual to confirm support.
