Microsoft Surface HD Digital AV Adapter

The Microsoft Surface HD Digital AV Adapter connects Surface and Surface 2 tablets to any HDMI-compatible display. It enables streaming of movies, video games and slideshows in high definition. The adapter is designed exclusively for those two tablet models. It provides a direct wired link for external viewing.

Sustained use with external displays

The adapter maintains a stable HDMI signal during extended playback of video or gaming sessions. No active cooling is required because the unit draws minimal power from the tablet. Performance remains consistent as long as the host device supplies sufficient bus power. Signal integrity is preserved across typical session lengths.

Compatibility check before ordering

Verify that your tablet is a Surface or Surface 2 model before purchase. The proprietary connector will not fit later Surface generations or other brands. Confirm the external display has an available HDMI input. Ensure the tablet’s video output is enabled in its settings.

Questions about this item

Does the Z2S-00003 adapter draw extra power or run hot when driving an external display all day?

The adapter is a passive HDMI dongle that takes its power from the Surface accessory port, so it adds no separate heat source or power draw beyond what the tablet already supplies.

What Surface model and port must I already have for the Z2S-00003 to work?

It plugs into the proprietary accessory connector found only on the original Surface and Surface 2; newer Surface devices use different ports and are not compatible.

Will the Z2S-00003 let me keep using my older Surface RT or Surface 2 alongside a new monitor?

Yes, the adapter was designed exclusively for those two tablets and outputs HDMI video to any HDMI-compatible display you connect.
