I want to plug the USB part into my laptop and the HDMI into the TV and use the TV as my monitor. Is this the correct product for that?

No. You need a USB to HDMI cable. But if your laptop has a display port (usually bigger than your USB port) then you can use this

Just to be more specific about this cable, this is in fact a Display Port to HDMI. This will not fit into a USB.

This device with the use of you USB2/3 port will creat an HDMI port. The TV via HDMI you attach it to will become a second monitor on your PC.

This is a standard Display Port to HDMI cable. If your notebook has DP out... and your TV is HDMI in, then this is the correct cable. Your main issues with set up will be the equipment hardware and software. Keep in mind that DisplayPort is higher quality than HDMI, but less popular. This cable just downgrades the DP bandwidth to the smaller HDMI bandwidth. My biggest headache was configuring MS Windows and the TV to work with each other.. filling the image edge to edge, which has nothing to do with the cable.

I have returned this since it was not working with my computer. Since then, using a Sabrent USB to HDMI adapter, this works fine

Yes, it works fine. I use this as a second monitor with my lap-top. You'll need high-resolution video and I use the HDMI interface. Gary

The connection is the same as it is for a computer. The USB on the back of my TV is the same normal size USB.

Hi Diane, I'm guessing that your laptop has the HDMI port and your Plasma TV the DVI-M or vise versa. In which case, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Just do double check that your laptop has the said port, and not a USB, which may look like an HDMI in size and shape. I hope this helps - M

This passively converts the display port to HDMI. It will not plug into your USB port.

Windows USB out to hdmi input of TV. Your question implies your tv hasn't enough hdmi inputs. Don't think this will work.

Yes, it will allow you to use a VGA monitor to connect to your RCA video output. Also, it comes with it's own power supply, so the USB is not an issue.

As long as you are planning to attach your computer USB port to this device and then this device to your TV HDMI... It should work great!

The adapter is neither USB nor HDMI, its converts Displayport to DVI. HDMI and Displayport connections look similar, but are not. I have used several hundreds of these to connect dual displays to Dell computers without purchasing video cards.

No, just get a USB to HDMI adapter or if your laptop has HDMI you can go that route as well, some have big or mini HDMI so just look up you model and see what connections you have. This should help you!

You mean HDMI "Output" on computer. That should work.Advantage of buying from Amazon is you can return it if it don't work :)Good Luck.

If you have an extra display port not in use on the laptop and you want to connect it to a VGA monitor you would want to get this, otherwise no it wouldn't. You probably want a USB to (DVI, HD, VGA) adaptor so you can add an extra display adaptor.

Yes, just check for your laptop video output, all you need is the hdmi cable or vga.
