Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this cable support audio?

No, the DVI-D standard is restricted to video signals only.

Can I use this to connect a DVI PC to a DisplayPort monitor?

No, this cable is unidirectional and only works from a DisplayPort source to a DVI-D display.

What is the maximum resolution supported?

The cable supports up to 2560x1600 or 1440P resolution.

Why is the cable braided?

The nylon braided exterior provides extra strength and reduces the likelihood of the cable fraying or snapping over time.

Do I need to install any drivers?

No, this is a passive cable that requires no software or drivers to function.

Troubleshooting

No signal detected on the monitor

Verify that the cable is connected in the correct direction (DisplayPort at the PC, DVI-D at the monitor) and ensure both ends are pushed in fully.

Image flickering or distorted

Check that the resolution settings in your OS do not exceed 2560x1600, and ensure no heavy electrical interference is near the cable.

No sound output

Note that the DVI-D standard does not support audio; you will need a separate auxiliary or USB audio cable connected to your speakers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports high-resolution output up to 1440P
  • High-quality nylon braiding adds physical durability
  • Gold-plated connectors improve connection longevity
  • Reliable full copper internal wiring

Cons

  • Unidirectional design limits setup flexibility
  • Does not support audio transmission
  • DVI-D interface is limited to video signals only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper performance, connect the DisplayPort end directly into your source device (PC, laptop, or GPU) and the DVI-D end into your display. Because the cable is unidirectional, reversing these connections will result in no signal. While the nylon braided exterior is rugged, avoid bending the cable at sharp 90-degree angles near the connector heads to maintain the integrity of the internal copper wiring. Keep the contacts clean and free of dust, and store in a cool, dry environment when not in use.
