FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Tripp Lite P137-06N-VGA-V2 cable?
The Tripp Lite P137-06N-VGA-V2 is an active adapter cable designed to connect devices with Mini-DisplayPort or Thunderbolt ports to VGA monitors. It's specifically made for use with Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort equipped laptops, Chromebooks, MacBooks, and Microsoft Surface devices, allowing them to output video to VGA displays at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080.
What maximum resolution does this adapter support?
This adapter supports VGA computer video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 and HD resolutions up to 1080p (1920 x 1080). With DisplayPort v1.2's increased bandwidth of 17.28 Gbps in High Bit Rate (HBR2) mode, it ensures high-quality video output with superior refresh rates and color depth.
What makes this an "active" adapter and why is that important?
As an active adapter, the P137-06N-VGA-V2 can convert both Single-Mode and Dual Mode (DP++) DisplayPort output signals. This is particularly important for graphics cards like AMD Eyefinity that don't output Dual Mode signals. Unlike passive adapters, active conversion ensures broader compatibility and reliable performance across different DisplayPort sources.
What are the connector types on this cable?
The cable features a Mini DisplayPort 1.2 Digital Audio/Video Male connector on one end and a 15-pin HD-15 Female (VGA) connector on the other end. This 6-inch cable provides a direct connection between Mini DisplayPort sources and VGA displays.
What operating systems is this adapter compatible with?
The adapter is compatible with Mac OS 10.11 and Windows 10 operating systems. It's designed to work seamlessly with various devices including Thunderbolt-equipped laptops, Chromebooks, MacBooks, and Microsoft Surface devices.
