DisplayPort to VGA Converter

Introduction:

This is a DisplayPort to VGA signal format converter for interfacing next generation DisplayPort based PC and notebook computers with conventional VGA displays, such as CRT, LCD monitors, and projectors. DisplayPort offers a unified, scalable, and cost effective interface for embedded and external display applications. As desktop and notebook PCs are increasingly transitioning from conventional analog type interfaces to DisplayPort, the converter facilitates the transition by offering seamless connectivity between new DisplayPort PC and notebooks and the installed base VGA monitors and projectors. It offers solutions for digital entertainment center, projector factory, noisy space and security concerns, conference room presentation, school and corporate training environments.
