Type of review

Required to connect my Wacom Cintiq Pro to my 27" Dell XPS. Luckily, another reviewer suggested this Displayport converter in combination with D2MDPMF6IN to connect them. When I asked Wacom for help from a "live" person, all I got was an apology and no guarantee that anything would work. Thank you to the reviewer who had exactly the information I needed. It's clumsy and clumsy, but that's it.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • No power

Part one of two so I can finally convert my laptop's HDMI connection to the Cintiq Pro can. Works like clockwork but you have to order both parts. 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…

Pros
  • GOLS Certification
Cons
  • Update Availability

Great cable viewing accessory for my 27 " iMac (Mid 2010 model)

Very surprised by the negative reviews and complaints from iMac owners about the 720p limit. Mine was a week ago, between the FIOS cable box and a 27" iMac mid 2010 and it works really well. I've tried looking at it up close (3ft) and in a small room (8ft) and they both look fine. Not the same as mine Samsung 42" 1080p or my Sony HiDef projector on a 100" screen but looks great for a small, slightly dark room. Also surprised by complaints about the heat - I'm warm but not hot. Installation was…

Pros
  • Great for me

  • little things

I couldn't get it to work on 2560x1600

I'm using a Clevo 740su laptop with Ubuntu 15.10. It has a 1.2 mini display port and 1.3a HDMI ports. I have 3 HP ZR30W 2560x1600 monitors at home that I plan to use with this laptop. I connected two monitors to the mini display port using the Startech MSTMDP122DP and bought this to connect a third to the HDMI port (which happily drives my 4K panel at the office). Pros: Arrived in the box with a 12" USB extension cable - which was a nice touch. Easy to connect, Ubuntu recognized it immediately.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Compatibility

Really works, unlike others

I started a strange journey looking for a way to connect my Alienware Alpha PC to my Apple LED Cinema Display (27", 2560x1440) via HDMI only. This display can only work with ( mini)DisplayPort I'm sure anyone looking at this product will understand that it's very easy to find converters from DisplayPort (source) to HDMI (display) but not vice versa, since this device (usually signal converter) is NOT bi-directional It won't convert DP -> HDMI I convert HDMI -> DP just fine First I ordered

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Frequency

I have high hopes but I miss

I try my best not to write warm reviews to be lucky. In this case, however, this simply cannot be avoided. I was looking forward to this device. As soon as it arrived, I eagerly opened the box and plugged everything into my HP Displayport monitor. I hooked up the Playstation TVs first and the excellent picture on the monitor was impressive, and then after about 10 minutes the monitor went to sleep while the PS TV was still sending a signal via HDMI (no signal detected). Then I played with the…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Really works, unlike other

I embarked on a strange journey trying to find a way to connect my HDMI-only Alienware Alpha computer to my 27-inch 2560x1440 Apple LED Cinema Display. This display panel can only be powered via (mini) DisplayPort. I am sure that anyone looking at this product will find that it is very easy to find DisplayPort (source) to HDMI (display) converters but not vice versa like this device. This product (and any other video converter in general) is NOT bi-directional and does not convert DP -&gt…

Pros
  • PLUG AND PLAY: This HDMI to DP converter requires no drivers or software and offers true plug and play technology. It's USB powered, eliminating the need for an external power cable, making it ideal for mobile professionals.
Cons
  • Crumpled

Best Customer Service EVER

I bought a new graphics card for my PC. Thought it comes with displayport output. I was wrong. Only HDMI and DVI. I ordered an HDMI to DP adapter hoping that I could use it to get Nvidia g-sync working on my monitor (it only works over a DP connection). While fumbling to get it to work, I set the refresh rate too high and my display went completely blank. It was not possible to restore the original resolution because nothing could be seen on the monitor. I almost lost my mind. It was around…

Pros
  • IMPROVED PERFORMANCE: This DP converter allows users to add an additional screen or display to their HDMI-equipped computer, increasing productivity. The adapter transmits high quality audio and video to ensure functionality is not compromised.
Cons
  • The cable is shorter than others
