Cable Gender Changer Microconnect MONBG HD15 to DVI-I 24+5Pin Black

The Microconnect MONBG cable gender changer allows connection between devices or cables with an HD15 (VGA) connector and those with a DVI-I 24+5 pin connector. With a compact black housing and standard pin assignments, the adapter provides a simple passive solution for linking older VGA sources to DVI-I inputs where pin compatibility permits.

Advantages

This gender changer is lightweight and compact, enabling easy installation in tight setups. It preserves the physical pin layout required for analog VGA signals when used with compatible DVI-I ports, and its black finish matches common AV equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or laptop with an HD15 (VGA) output to a DVI-I 24+5 input on a monitor or projector (where the DVI-I port accepts analog signals)
• Adapting VGA cables to equipment wiring harnesses with DVI-I connectors
• Temporary or portable AV setups requiring a simple passive adapter

Key specifications

• Connector 1: HD15 (VGA)
• Connector 2: DVI-I 24+5 pin
• Colour: Black
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Align the HD15 connector with the VGA cable or device and the DVI-I 24+5 connector with the target DVI-I port, then insert and secure the connectors. Ensure the DVI-I input supports analog VGA signals (DVI-A compatible) before relying on video output. No drivers are required; this is a passive adapter handling physical connection only.

Recommendations

Use this adapter when connecting analog VGA sources to DVI-I ports that include analog pins. For digital-only DVI-D inputs, use an active VGA-to-DVI converter instead. Avoid forcing connectors; verify pin alignment and port compatibility to prevent damage.
