Active DisplayPort to DVI-D adapter cable

The Interex By Tripp-Lite P581-003 is an active adapter cable that connects a DisplayPort source directly to a DVI-D display. It eliminates the need for a separate adapter by integrating the conversion circuitry into the cable itself. The 3 ft length suits desktop setups where the monitor sits close to the computer. Buyers who need a passive cable or a longer run should look elsewhere.

Passive operation with no external power

The adapter draws the small amount of power it requires directly from the DisplayPort connection, so no external power supply is needed. Nickel-plated connectors with gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain reliable signal transfer. The round black cable weighs 0.2 lbs and adds minimal clutter. There are no fans, active cooling or noise of any kind.

Maximum supported resolution 1920 x 1200

The cable supports computer video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 and HD video up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p). Higher resolutions such as 1440p or 4K are not supported. The DisplayPort end features latches for a secure connection, while the DVI-D end is a standard male plug. Verify that your source and display match these limits before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 3 ft DisplayPort-to-DVI-D cable, and what step is often missed?

Plug the DisplayPort male end into the source until the latches click, then connect the DVI-D male end to the display and tighten its thumbscrews; the step people miss is fully seating the DisplayPort latches so the link trains at 1920 x 1080.

What part of this active adapter will wear out first and need replacement?

The DisplayPort latch mechanism and the gold-plated contact surfaces on both connectors are the components that degrade with repeated mating cycles; the cable jacket and nickel-plated shells are passive and last longer.

What resolution ceiling appears first during a long gaming session?

The adapter is rated for HD video up to 1920 x 1080 and computer video up to 1920 x 1200, so 1080p is the highest HD resolution sustained without downscaling.
