The Microconnect 50990 DVI-I to VGA (D-Sub) video cable adapter is a 2 m black connection cable designed to convert a DVI-I output to a VGA input. The adapter enables signal continuity between devices with DVI-I and VGA ports, offering a practical solution when a monitor, projector or video card needs to be linked to legacy analog displays. The cable is RoHS compliant and has a lightweight build of approximately 160 g, providing a balance between portability and durable handling.

Advantages

This video cable adapter provides straightforward DVI-I to VGA connectivity without additional power or drivers. Its 2 m length gives flexibility in desktop and small meeting-room setups, while the black finish blends with most AV equipment. The cable’s construction supports stable analog signal transmission and allows easy storage and transport due to its compact dimensions and modest weight.

Suitable for

• Connecting a DVI-I equipped desktop or graphics card to a VGA monitor or projector
• Temporary or permanent setups in offices, classrooms, or presentation spaces
• Integrating older VGA displays into systems that offer DVI-I outputs

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 m

How to use

Plug the DVI-I connector into the DVI output of the source device, ensuring proper alignment of the connector pins, and attach the VGA (D-Sub) connector to the display input. Tighten any thumb screws on the VGA connector to secure the connection. After physical connection, power on both devices. Configure the display settings on the source device if necessary to match the resolution and refresh rate supported by the VGA display.

Recommendations

For best results, use this adapter where the source device supports analog signal output on its DVI-I port. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and check that the target VGA display supports the intended resolution. If image quality issues occur at higher resolutions, consider using a fully digital connection where available.
