Connect your DVI monitor to a DisplayPort equipped computer. The StarTech.com DP2DVIADAP DisplayPort DVI adapter lets you connect a DVI-D display to a DisplayPort video source (e.g. DisplayPort video cards, etc.), eliminating the expense of having to upgrade to a DisplayPort enabled display while providing a hassle-free connection to any DisplayPort video card/signal source. The DVI/DisplayPort adapter supports display resolutions up to 1920x1200, allowing you to take full advantage of single link DVI capability. DP2DVIADAP is a passive adapter that requires a DP++ port (DisplayPort++), meaning that DVI and HDMI signals can also be passed through the port.
