I have a DP KVM switch and a HDMI monitor. I had a cheap DP to HDMI cable and this worked fine for 2 desktops with DP connectors (DP GPU to DP KVM, then DP to HDMI monitor). However, I could not get a laptop to recognise the monitor via a USB-C to DP converter (Laptop USB-C to USB-C to DP Converter to KVM...). I thought the issue was with the laptop, but some time later tried a different laptop and had the same issue. I spoke with Startech Technical Support for query with a different device, and also mentioned this. They recommended getting a proper DP to HDMI converter and this works perfectly. I am pleased as I was thinking I would have to buy a new monitor, but can use this one for longer now. Excellent advice and assistance from Startech Tech Support!

This does what it says on the tin - converts Display port output to HDMI - ie plugs a HDMI TV into my computer with a DisplayPort port. It appears well made (unlike some of the other similar products reviewed on Amazon...) and I just leave it plugged into the HDMI cord stuck in the back of my TV, then can just connect to computer when needed. Sound does work most of the time, but a couple of instances it has not connected sound for a good 20-30 secs from pugging in. My HD cable TV box also takes a few seconds to come up with sound when it first connects, so maybe its the TV, not the peripherals... Anyway, for a quick solution to connect my laptop with dP to HDMI TV, this fits the bill. Worth spending a few extra pounds to have one that doesn't fall apart in your hands like others reportedly do...

Only a few weeks ago I tried the equivalent DisplayPort to VGA adaptor which was impressive. This little DVI-D adaptor is, if it's at all possible, even better and provides an absolutely rock-solid picture at its full resolution of 1900 x 1200. It connects securely to my standard DVI cable and the other end plugs and latches into the DisplayPort socket on the back of the Dell computer I'm using. The flexible cable ensures you haven't got it sticking out at right angles on your PC. All-in-all, very secure. I didn't see any drivers being loaded, it just started working, so it's truly plug and play. I have no negatives to report; its been working for about a week now and I never even think about it, it "just works". Recommended if you have DisplayPort on your PC (they look a bit like a cross between a USB and HDMI connector).

I used to scrimp and save on cables, adapters, etc but these days I just want something that will work exactly like it says it will. Put simply, startech stuff is expensive, but it's solid, reliable, and it works *exactly* like it says it will, e.g I just plugged this in to a displayport plug on a high-end GPU and connected it to a 4K monitor, and I have a 60Hz image that is exactly the same as if I'd plugged it straight HDMI to HDMI. Others are cheaper, but if you can afford this and just want something that is guaranteed to work, then I think it's worth it.

Great cable, solid and well built - does what it says it’s supposed to. Note, this is a DP to DVI cable, NOT a DVI to DP cable. This can be used with a DP equipped computer to output to a DVI display, but not a DVI equipped computer to output to a DP display!

Works perfectly for the specification mentioned above (in agreement with the description). I in general have been impressed with StarTech display and USB cables and tools

Not really deserving such a low score, but the description should be better to avoid you making the mistake I did. It may convert from DP to HDMI, but it will not convert from HDMI to DP. So you can use an HMDI monitor with a display port card, but not a display port monitor with an HDMI card. Bearing in mind this is not an active device, that did not seem unreasonable to have expected, but clearly this is more to conversion that simply pin and physical format. Given that one vendor of video cards told me (about DVI/HDMI/DVI), that they were all digital, so they all work with each other, its not just me who is confused. CD's and DVD's are digital, but they are not the same thing, so I was apalled by this guys lack of knowledge, which even surpassed mine. Point being, many people could make the same mistake as me.
