FAQs

What is the maximum resolution supported by this HDMI to VGA adapter?

The Plugable HDMI to VGA adapter supports a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 (Full HD). This resolution makes it ideal for connecting to most modern VGA monitors, projectors, and displays while maintaining clear, crisp image quality.

What devices is this adapter compatible with?

This adapter is compatible with a wide range of devices including MacBook Pro, Mac mini, PlayStation 3 & 4, Blu-ray players, Apple TV, Raspberry Pi, notebooks, netbooks, and various docking stations. Specific tested models include Acer Aspire One netbook, Dell Vostro 3560 notebook, Intel NUC mini PC, Mac Mini (Mid 2011), MacBook Pro 13 (Mid-2014), and Samsung Chromebook.

Does this adapter require external power?

Generally, this adapter doesn't require external power as it draws power from the HDMI source device. However, it's important to note that some extremely low-power devices may not provide sufficient power for the adapter to function properly. The digital-to-analog conversion is performed inline without any external power sources or converter boxes needed in most cases.

What is the cable length of this adapter?

The Plugable HDMI to VGA adapter features a 6-foot (approximately 1.8 meters) cable length. This generous length provides flexibility in setting up your display configuration while maintaining signal quality.

Can this adapter transmit audio?

No, this adapter cannot transmit audio. While HDMI is capable of carrying audio signals, VGA is a video-only format and is not compatible with audio transmission. A separate audio cable would be required for sound output.
