What the cable does

The StarTech MDP2DVIMM6BS is an active Mini DisplayPort to DVI-D cable that connects a Mini DisplayPort source directly to a DVI display. It works with PCs, Macs and Surface devices that have a Mini DisplayPort output. The active circuitry handles both multimode and single-mode DisplayPort signals, so it also works with graphics cards that cannot output DP++ signals such as ATI Eyefinity cards.

Resolution and signal limits

The cable supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 over its 5.91 ft length. It is compatible with Intel Thunderbolt ports that can output a DisplayPort signal. Because the adapter is active, it does not rely on the source to provide a dual-mode signal, but the maximum supported resolution remains 1920 x 1200 regardless of the host capability.

Build and daily use

Both ends use male connectors, so the cable plugs straight into the source and the display without extra adapters. The plug-and-play design needs no drivers or external power. The active converter is built into the cable body, keeping the connection compact for desk or meeting-room setups. Note that this cable is not compatible with the Apple Cinema Display.
