Apple LED Cinema Display

This tiny DisplayPort adapter is perfect for my 24" 1920 x 1200 Apple LED Cinema Display. My Windows PC has a Ryzen 1700x with an RX 480 on an Asus B350 board and I was wondering if I could use my old LED theater. It works without any problems and supports full screen resolution. I'm happy with this adapter and would highly recommend it for a setup like mine.

Pros
  • Very Impressive
Cons
  • So So

Wonderful! Works better than advertised! =)

I bought this adapter hoping that it would work together with another adapter (VicTsing Mini DisplayPort Male to HDMI/VGA/DVI Adapter). Luckily they work great together and I can easily extend my desktop to a projector or second monitor. I can't say for sure if there is a limit to the output resolution when another adapter is paired. with 1080p limited output. However, I can say that it works as a display and I am happy when it has been paired with a second adapter. =

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Weight

No lack of connectors and adapters

To use an Apple Cinema Display with any modern graphics card, this is a wasteful missing part. I recently ordered an (obsolete) Apple Cinema Display (ACD) for use with my PC/OS X setup. Little did I know that the only input for an ACD was its MALE Mini DisplayPort (MDP), a cable used by the Advertisement. No bushings. I also ordered a relatively new EVGA GeForce 960 GTX FTW Edition graphics card and this adapter helped me connect to the ACD. The graphics card features a DisplayPort with a…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Reconfigure PC and Mac and Windows displays with DisplayPort, dual-link DVI, HDMI and MiniDisplayPort for various activities that require a reliable connection between displays and computers. They work for me at 2560x1600 with a 60Hz refresh rate. They should also work for a higher refresh rate at lower resolutions as the product of these three factors and bit depth is bandwidth which is the limiting constraint barring size tolerances , which in my experience have also been satisfactory…

Pros
  • Rugged Design
Cons
  • Bad Impression

The perfect solution to connect my old Apple LED Cinema Display to my new Apple 13" MacBook Pro via a third party USB-C port replicator. None of the port replicators I've come across bin, works. Includes a mini DP connection, I found one that includes a traditional DP connection (USB C hub, TOTU Upgraded 13 in 1 Type C hub to 4K HDMI and DP, VGA, 2 USB3. 0/2 USB2.0/75W PD Triple Display Docking Station for MacBook Pro and Windows USB-C Systems) so the combination of this cable and this hub/port

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Almost never

Connecting the Cintiq Pro (part one of two)

Part one of two so I can finally convert my laptop's HDMI connection to a Cintiq Pro. Works great. Thank you Star Tech for ridiculously not including or even recommending Cintiq to help their customers! Thanks to you I don't have to return the $900 device. In order for the most common connection (HDMI) to work with the Cintiq pro you must obtain this part number: DP2MDPMF6in and this part number: HD2DP by connecting them together. I know it seems ridiculous to make so many connections and it…

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Cool adapter! for accessories and consumables

a brand new cable and remove the 52 inch monitor so we found the right connector for us and started searching on Revain... and, voila!, Revain had it and saved position! :-) With this PC adapter and an existing Macbook Mini DP to HDMI cable connected to your monitor, simply plug the Mini DP connector into the Mini DP port (which goes to the Mini -DP/Macbook video out) and the other end into the laptop's video out PC. I can now display my laptop pc video on a big screen for only $6.26! nice! :-)

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Security

Cool adapter! - Connectors and Adapters

We needed to set up a laptop to connect video to a 52" flat panel display that was already set up to output video from a MacBook. We didn't want to get a brand new cable and remove a 52" monitor, so we found the connector we needed and started searching Revain... and voila! Revain found him and saved the day! :-) With this PC adapter and an existing Macbook Mini DP to HDMI cable connected to your monitor, simply plug the Mini DP connector into the Mini DP port (which goes to the Mini…

Pros
  • Molded locking connector protects cables from accidental disconnection
Cons
  • Legacy model

Required to connect an Apple Cinema Display to a Dell laptop

We just upgraded a working Apple MacBook to a Dell laptop and I wanted a 24 inch Apple Cinema Connect the display to this new Dell laptop. This was a lot harder than I expected since the Apple Cinema display uses a mini display port and the Dell laptop only had one VGA port and three USB ports. So I tried to connect it to a VGA connector, but it's very, very difficult because VGA is an analog signal and the mini display port is a digital signal. It's not enough to just buy a VGA connector for…

  • Designed and manufactured to DisplayPort version 1.2 standards
