Product Overview

An HDMI to VGA cable allows you to connect modern digital devices such as laptops, consoles, or PCs to older analog displays such as monitors or projectors. Since HDMI transmits digital signals while VGA uses analog signals, these cables require an active conversion chip to convert the signal.

Key Considerations Before Buying

• Directionality: Most HDMI-to-VGA cables are one-way, converting an HDMI source to a VGA display. They generally will not work in the opposite direction from VGA to HDMI.

• Audio Support: VGA does not transmit audio. If audio output is required, choose an adapter that includes a 3.5mm audio jack.

• Power Requirements: Some high-power devices may require an adapter with a Micro-USB power port to provide sufficient power for the conversion chip.

• Resolution: Most standard cables support up to 1080p (Full HD) at 60Hz.
