Lindy 2m HDMI to DVI Cable Black Line HDMI Type A DVI-D

The Lindy 2m HDMI to DVI Cable Black Line HDMI Type A DVI-D provides a direct wired connection between HDMI source devices and DVI-D displays. It uses an HDMI Type A (Standard) male connector to a DVI-D male connector and is designed for reliable transmission of digital video signals up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz, including HDTV resolutions up to 1080p. The cable has a 5.5 mm diameter for a balance of flexibility and durability and is supplied by Lindy as part of the Black Line range, intended for home, office and basic professional AV setups.

Advantages

Triple-shielded construction with 30AWG tinned copper conductors reduces electromagnetic interference and provides corrosion resistance for consistent video performance. Nickel-plated connector shells with 24K gold plated contacts preserve signal integrity at the connection points. The robust PVC housing includes an integrated finger grip and large thumb screws for tool-free secure fastening to DVI ports, while a flexible strain relief extends cable life. The cable is certified to RoHS, REACH and UL standards.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs or laptops with HDMI output to DVI-D monitors or projectors
• Home theatre setups where an HDMI source must be connected to a DVI display
• Small office and classroom AV systems requiring a reliable digital video link

How to use

Connect the HDMI Type A male end to the HDMI output on your source device and insert the DVI-D male end into the DVI input of the display. Ensure the thumb screws on the DVI connector are tightened by hand to secure the connection; no tools are required. If your source or display uses HDCP or specific EDID settings, configure the devices accordingly to ensure correct resolution and color settings. For optimal signal quality, avoid running the cable parallel to power cables and minimize sharp bends.

Recommendations

Use this cable for uncompressed digital video transmission where audio is not required over the link (DVI-D does not carry audio). For longer runs beyond 2 m or where audio passthrough is needed, consider alternative solutions such as active converters or HDMI-only cabling. Store the cable coiled without tight kinks and keep connectors free from dust when not in use.
