StarTech 3' Male DisplayPort to Male DVI Active Adapter Converter Cable

The StarTech 3' Male DisplayPort to Male DVI Active Adapter Converter Cable lets you connect your DisplayPort-equipped desktop or laptop directly to a nearby DVI monitor or projector, saving the expense of additional adapters while eliminating the clutter of excess cable.For promised compatibility with virtually any DisplayPort output the active DisplayPort to DVI adapter supports multimode (DP++) as well as single-mode DisplayPort signals. Unlike passive adapters, this ensures the DP2DVIMM3BS can be used with graphics cards that are not capable of outputting multimode DP++ signals, such as ATI Eyefinity cards. Plus, because the converter cable supports video resolutions up to 2560x1600 you can convert a DisplayPort video source to DVI without sacrificing video quality.
