The Pro DVI-D to VGA Converter is an ideal solution for connecting newer laptops or computers that output a digital DVI-D video signal to legacy displays, such as projects or monitors, which accept a VGA input. This device converts the digital DVI-D video signal to an analog VGA video signal. Many products on the market, particularly cables, claim this capability; however, most of these products only "adapt" from DVI-D to VGA. Without an active conversion process, there are very few devices that are able to output an analog VGA signal from a DVI-D output.
