I am planning to use this along with a VGA to HDMI adapter to connect HDMI devices to a monitor that only has VGA. Will this work?

This is a female HDMI to female HDMI adaptor. Thus I think you need a HDMI to VGA adaptor, not this one.

There's no reason that it shouldn't work as long as the VGA to HDMI adapter works for you. All this device does is connect HDMI straight through.

As a cable connection it will certainly work electrically, same as if you were connecting HDMI to HDMI, which I did to extend the reach of my cables. This connector has female ports on both sides. Main issue is that you are converting a digital signal to analog, and the resulting VGA picture will not be as good as HDMI to a new Hi-Def TV.

Hopefully you are using an HDMI to VGA, not a VGA to HDMI if you are taking the HDMI OUT to a VGA IN on the monitor. They only work one way. As far as the adapter, it's just strait wire - no issues there.

Yes. I'm using mine with a thunderbolt to VGA adapter and it works just fine

That is the reason I purchased it. It did not work. This converts hdmi to vga. Not vga to hdmi which is what we need. With what I have learned it only works one way.

Mine worked great to convert my computer VGA to the TV HDMI . I don't think it works the other way

I'm using it with 1 passive displayport-to-dvi connector, one active hdmi-to-vga connector, and the dvi port. It will also deliver VGA through its dvi port so you can use a passive adapter from dvi to vga.

Basically it will allowed you to connect it to any monitor with HDMi and with included adapter DVI / VGA. Only thing I am not sure about is sound. By the way, you are not limited to just one. I have one of these plus a docking station

Depends on both your input and output sources. I can't promise it will work on your setting even this is an active adapter. At least, it didn't work out from my ps3 through hdmi with this adapter to a dell monitor's displayport .

No this cable will not concert from vga to hdmi. You need a converter box to do that. I made the mistake of buying it for the exact same computer and reason which was a waste of money. Do not buy this cable to convert from vga to hdmi. It won't do it.

This cable takes connection from the VGA end to the HDMI, and it should work if that's how you intend to use it.

No, it will not work. You need a VGA to HDMI with a converter. That cable does not have a converter. Also make sure you get VGA to hdmi and not hdmi to vga

This will not! One way -> Hdmi to VGA only. I have used IOCrest and HDE VGA to hdmi converters with success. Even micro and mini hdmi converters from them.

I just tried this and it does not appear to work (it could be my DVI to VGA adapter, but I don't think it's broken). You are better off buying a mini display port to VGA adapter.

I would assume it would. You might have to Detect Displays (Cmd + F2) to get the VGA monitor online if your using it as a secondary monitor.

yes! As long you have the right connecter on both end's "" Its like using vga,HDMI or DVI output on monitor""

It works great with anything that gives a HDMI, VGA or Composite Video signal. You must look for a connector that is a converter to these signal types.

Yes. The device is intended to convert an HDMI connection to a VGA monitor.

this adaptor converts from usb to RS232 serial. If that is what you are trying to do it will work well. It is not for VGA as that is a video format.
