Do I need a HDMI or other cable in order to use this to plug into a monitor from my surface pro 2?

You should not. The adapter has a 15 pin (female) connector on one end. If you are connecting to a monitor... just make sure your cable is 15 pin male...

You will need the cable from the Monitor to connect to the adapter and the computer!!

You need a special SP3 mini display cable to connect to SP3 display port. That can have an HDMI male connector on the other end or other adapter like VGA depending on which output cable you buy. The SP3 end MUST be specific for the SP3 mini display port. I bought the SP3 to HDMI cable. After that I connect to an HDMI female cable with another HDMI female end which connects to the monitor in my monitor.

Excuse me, but I answered another question about another topic. I was confused. About your question, this adapter works fine with the surface pro 2. But delivery is extremely delayed. The adapter is sent from China!

Absolutely, I bought it for my Surface Pro. I was pretty surprised on how seamlessly connected to my HDMI monitor. Even my 19' Vaio laptop with dedicated video card stumbles a lot when I connect the HDMI monitor when I have a few windows open, but the Surface Pro 3 did it without a problem.

Yes, you will need HDMI cable to connect to your monitor/TV. Make sure it has HDMI input.

Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 use the same power adapter so it should work with either.

No. This cable is a full size DisplayPort (DP) to HDMI cable. The surface pro 3 uses the newer mini-DisplayPort. Purchase this cable (http://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-DisplayPort-Thunderbolt-Compatible/dp/B004CADYDO) instead

I believe what you need is an HDMI Cable and you can use it only if your computer has an HDMI port.

The Surface RT has does have HD video out port, which seems to be micro sd, whcih this would work just fine, but I would double check that it's actually a micro sd port. This will not work for the surface pro though, as the pro has a mini display port, which is way different than a micro sd port. Look here for the Mini display port: http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l;=en&s;=bsd&cs;=04&sku;=A5321876&ef;_id=UV2fFwAAAaYxHjDU:20130702180415:s&dgc;=ST&cid;=262075&lid;=4742361&acd;=1230980794501410

I have a Surface Pro and am currently running two external monitors on it (with the tablet display not running). I downloaded Windows 8.1, which is not officially supported yet, but there is a driver available on displaylink.com that did the trick.

I used with my Surface Pro (original) to connect to an older HD tv via HDMI. It works great and supplies both audio and video without issue.

No, this only works with Surface RT/Surface 2/Surface Pro/Surface Pro 2 devices.

No. The Microsoft Surface RT 2 has a proprietary HD Digital Video output port which is NOT the same as a micro HDMI output port. I suggest you search Ebay for "Miccrsoft HB Digital Video Adapter" to get correct cable. Should cost around $10 or so.

yes, you'll need the hdmi cable, this is merely an interface / "plug" to the hdmi cable

I'm really not sure. It probably will. The way this one is advertised it "Connects Apple computer to a HDMI input" so it may not be compatible with a PC based unit. I'm not familiar with the microsoft surface 2 pro (I have 4 computers and 3 of them are Macs) so I did a little research on the ports. I looked by browsing as well as on You Tube. There is a video that covers the computer well and they show the port but not close up. I have a question: most monitor HDMI ports are female, so why would you order this one? You can find an HDMI male to mini display port (male) on amazon as well. If you do, when you see the HDE brand, please read the most recent reviews. I had a bad experience with a recent batch of rejects trying to find the same thing you are (but older reviews are great) - but mine connecting an Apple Mini computer to a VGA monitor. I hope I've been of a little help. You might want to just call the tech dept of a Best Buy or similar store that sells the surface pro 2 and ask them. good luck!
