Purpose and audience
This Cables To Go 26956 adapter connects a DVI-A 17-pin male output to a VGA HD15 female input. It suits users linking legacy graphics cards or projectors to analogue VGA monitors. The passive design requires no external power. Buyers needing a DVI-D digital-only connection or an active signal conversion should not use this adapter.
Compatibility check
Verify that the source device provides a DVI-A or DVI-I analogue signal on its 17-pin port before ordering. A DVI-D port carries only digital signals and will not work with this passive adapter. Confirm the display accepts a standard HD15 VGA connector. The adapter supports resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 0.1 kg weight.
Thermals noise power
The passive adapter generates no heat and produces zero audible noise during operation. It draws no additional power beyond the signal lines provided by the source device. Normal use imposes no thermal load on the host system and requires no active cooling or external power supply.

Questions about this item
Does the 26956 adapter include any cables or do I need to buy a separate VGA cable?
The adapter provides a DVI-A 17-pin male connector on one side and an HD15 female port on the other, so a standard VGA cable with male HD15 ends is required to complete the link.
When should I choose this DVI-A 17-pin male to HD15 female version instead of a DVI-I or DVI-D model?
Select this adapter when the source device has a DVI-A output carrying an analogue signal and the display accepts a VGA input; it will not pass a digital-only DVI-D signal.
Will the 1600 x 1200 resolution claim hold up when I connect a modern graphics card to an older VGA monitor through this adapter?
The adapter is fully compliant with the DVI standard and supports analogue resolutions up to 1600 x 1200, so the monitor and graphics card determine the final usable resolution.
