USB to VGA adapter for dual monitors

This StarTech USB2VGAE3 adapter adds a VGA output to any desktop or laptop through a standard USB 2.0 port. It supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 and works without an external power supply. The compact 500 mm cable keeps the setup tidy for office or mobile use.

Upgrade from single-display limitation

The adapter replaces the need to open a computer case and install an internal graphics card when a second VGA monitor is required. Up to five adapters can be used simultaneously, so the jump is worthwhile whenever the system lacks enough native video outputs for a multi-monitor layout.

Build integration without internal hardware

Because the device draws power from the USB port, it needs no separate power brick and leaves expansion slots free. It connects via a USB A male plug and provides a 15-pin high-density D-Sub female port for the VGA cable. The small form factor suits cramped desks and travel bags alike.

Questions about this item

What length is the attached USB-A cable?

The fixed cable is 19.69 in (500 mm) long, so allow that reach when positioning the adapter near the VGA monitor.

Which driver step is often missed during setup?

After plugging the adapter into a USB 2.0 port, install the DisplayLink driver before Windows will detect the 1920 x 1200 VGA output.

How many of these adapters can run together on one computer?

Up to five USB2VGAE3 units can be used simultaneously, each adding one VGA display at supported resolutions.
