When it may not be suitable

How to use

To use the adapter, simply insert the DisplayPort connector into the output port of your computer or graphics card.

If the display does not appear immediately, navigate to your computer's display settings to configure the screen resolution and extend or duplicate your desktop as needed.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your computer has a DisplayPort output
• Ensure your display device supports a VGA input
• Note that this product is sold with damaged packaging
• Confirm that your setup does not require audio transmission, as VGA does not support audio

Usage recommendations

For the best performance, ensure all connections are firmly seated. If you experience flickering or signal loss, check that the VGA cable is securely tightened to the adapter and the monitor.
