StarTech HDVGADP2HD HDMI to HDMI and VGA Adapter with 2nd Screen Support

Overview :

The StarTech HDVGADP2HD is a versatile video adapter designed to bridge modern HDMI-equipped laptops and desktops with a variety of display hardware. It is utilized by business travelers, educators, and office professionals who frequently encounter different presentation environments and need a reliable "all-in-one" solution for connecting to projectors, monitors, or televisions.

Technically, the adapter features an HDMI male input and two female outputs: one HDMI and one VGA. It is designed for maximum flexibility, supporting a mirrored output where the same video signal is sent to both the HDMI and VGA displays simultaneously (2nd screen support). The HDMI output supports high-definition resolutions up to 4K at 30Hz, while the VGA output supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 (1080p) at 60Hz. Because VGA is an analog signal that does not carry audio, the adapter includes a built-in 3.5mm audio jack to ensure sound can be routed to external speakers or the VGA display's audio input.

Deployment is entirely plug-and-play, requiring no drivers or software installation. The compact, lightweight design makes it an ideal addition to a laptop bag. While the adapter is bus-powered via the HDMI source for most applications, it features an integrated Micro-USB power port to provide supplemental power if the video source provides insufficient voltage, ensuring a stable signal even with low-power devices like certain tablets or ultrabooks.

Key Features :

• 2-in-1 design provides both HDMI and VGA outputs from a single HDMI source.

• High-definition support: HDMI up to 4K 30Hz; VGA up to 1080p 60Hz.
