Review on πŸ”Œ Benfei DisplayPort to VGA Cable 6 Feet 2 Pack - Gold-Plated, Compatible with Lenovo, Dell, HP, ASUS and More by Jared Bradford

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't work with 3 monitors with Intel HD Graphics 2500

Bent. How can such a small thing bend the plug when it arrives? After trying to reconfigure the port, I tried connecting 3 monitors and it didn't work. Only 2 when my monitors are displayed (connected via VGA and 2 monitors via 2 displayports. Only one monitor per displayport will work at a time. So yes it works, but not when another monitor is also connected via displayport. Called that IT -Office for help. They said something about it's probably a "passive" adapter and not an "active" adapter. Also, I have an old Intel HD Graphics 2500 that may not have bandwidth capacity, to support 3 monitors IT is trying to see If there is anything we can do but I have been working with them for 30 minutes now I will most likely return it so I'm giving it 3 stars because technically it works but will become one star removed because the adapter itself arrived bent, and another star removed because there is nothing here to indicate whether this is a passive or active adapter.

Pros
  • LATCHING DESIGN: Latching DisplayPort connector provides a secure connection, the latches improve the stability of the connection when in use. When disconnected, press the realse button and pull it out slightly.
Cons
  • Not sure
