Is this an active or passive connection? (Will my computer see this monitor as a DisplayPort or HDMI?)

Computer see this as a HDMI monitor...both audio + video are working on this.My setup is Dell will display port + this adapter + HDMI wire + Sony Bravia HDMI

It never worked for me, so idk. I'd imagine that the computer would still see a DP, and the monitor an HDMI. All the converter is doing is moving pins around.

That is exactly how I'm using it. The HDMI is plugged into my Dell laptop, and it is connected to a VGA older monitor so I can have a second screen. It works like a charm!

You have to make sure that you plug the included USB cord from the back of the monitor (right next to the DVI input) into your computer (or a connected hub), just as you would any other USB hub. They certainly should have included this in the instructions!

There is "NO" "USB" connectors at all on this displayThe only connectivity on this monitor is "HDMI" "DVI" & "DisplayPort", and also a 1/8" audio connector

I have 2 monitors connected. One connected to the DVI port and the other connected to the display port using the adapter that came with the card.

Unless you have some special speakers all computer spekaers and monitors will connect with the new and newer systems... you may have an issue with the monitor as most current systems have dropped the old VGA pin connector in favor a the new DVI/HDMI connections... so worst case you have to buy a cheap converter or invest in a new monitor... your eyes will appreciate that!

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.

Is the GC capable of outputting DP++ (multi-mode) signals? Yes Should I use the active or passive DisplayPort to DVI Adapter? I would use the active DisplayPort .

I don't see a USB connection on the monitor. I see a power connection, and few HDMIs. It is a good monitor. Buy it!

Hi, I took a gamble when I bought this switch and I currently have it connected similar to what you asked, monitor connected to input 1 (DVI-Female to HDMI Male adapter), lcd-tv connected to input 2, and PC connected to the output (DVI-Male to HDMI adapter).It is working fine in this manner. Hope that helps.

I think so. I am using the HDMI and the VGA ports and it has no problem with that. The HDMI is connected to a projector and the VGA to a standard monitor. It detects both just fine, I assume it would be the same with the display port as well.

Mini-DisplayPort & "regular" DisplayPort use exactly the same signals, only the physical connector size is different. Therefore, only "passive" adapter is needed. An "active" adapter doesn't even exist.

Hi, Yes you are correct, there are two displayport interfaces and one VGA.Thanks, PCrush

Has HDMI and a cable for that connection comes with it. Should say on specs (about connections). Don't know dispay port? But then, I'd consider myself as not being knowledgeable about computers...just enough to do what I need. However, I got a good deal and I do comparison shop and like to have the best. And its working great for me. Good luck with your search. If you haven't done so, look at there web site and even call or chat on line. It was after talking with them that I decided to go with ASUS.

dont know. I am hooked up to VGA. HP monitors are good, this may be a design anomoly.

My choice of connection was to use the hdmi port between the nvidia card and the monitor. There was some confusion as the monitor was looking at hmdi input 1 and I was connected to input 2. that was quickly solved by moving cable to hmdi 1. I would suggest clearly identifying the location of the input port and guide the monitor through its set-up menu to that port. Good luck... Paul
