I am looking to connect a PC via a VGA splitter to a TV that doesn't have VGA. I need to run the TV's as a second monitor. Will this work?

If you are trying to create a 2nd monitor screen this product will not make that function possible.

It only has a VGA connection. So you would need some kind of converter and the quality would be poor.

This is a splitter, not a switch.For two computers to a single monitor, you need a switch.

You will need a separate VGA cable to connect to this adapter. They are cheep and easy to find. It's possible the device you are wanting to connect o already has one, or came with one.

Yes, You can connect the HDMI output of your PC to the HDMI input of your TV or projector.It does not have a VGA input. Set VGAIN@1080 FullHD for correct resolutionGood Luck

I used this splitter to attach a second monitor, it works well for this, I would suppose that if you were trying to link two computers the same way it could work?

Tom - you'd have to connect each PC to BOTH ports, a DVI and VGA. For example, my Dell laptop docking stations all have both DVI and VGA outputs, so I can switch back and forth between my two laptops and each gets both monitors. Pretty sure that if you just connect the DVI jack to your computer you will only have one monitor, not two.

The splitter allows you to send the same signal to two external monitors. Extending your desktop requires two video feeds - one to your existing monitor and another one to a second monitor. If you have a laptop PC, you could plug a second monitor into your SVGA connector (if you have one) or HDMI connector (if you have one) to extend your desktop. If you have a box PC, you will need a second video card for the second monitor. Then, you could duplicate your desktop on the second monitor, or you could extend your desktop on the second monitor (different info displaying on the two monitors). The splitter cannot extend your monitor, but could be used to duplicate it. I hope this information helps you. The splitter allows you to send the same signal to two external monitors.

It will connect one VGA connector (such as computer output) to another (such as monitor input).It is not designed to split one output into dual outputs.

No, There is no VGA, or DVI connectors on this TV. If you computer has a HDMI graphics card you could send it to the screen on 2nd HDMI source.

I felt I had to add that this device is for TV's that do not have the capability of computer hook-up, such as yours has. Also, if you have a desktop system, most monitors come with the vga to dmi adapter, or maybe you know someone with an extra.

You will probably need two DVI cables (connect from splitter to the monitor) or if you have VGA cales, you will need DVI to VGA adapters (available at Amazon or Walmart) to connect to the splitter and then connect the VGA cable from Adapter to the monitor.

No, you still need a VGA cable, but if you have a PC monitor, you probably already have that.

The intent for this splitter is to split one signal into two. Sending it to two different monitors. For example PS4 to a tv and a projector at the same time. However this splitter is not even capable of that. The signal dropped out and is unwatchable. You want a HDMI switch not a splitter. Multiple inputs to one output.

Yes, but only if you have a second rgb or dvi plug on your computer side then you could plug in the hdmi to the monitor if it supports hdmi. If not, I suggest using an RGB splitter which uses 1 to the computer and and 2 out to the monitors. It is located here on amazon as follows; (copy this and paste it to the amazon search) PTC Premium 1-FT GOLD Series VGA / SVGA 1 source to 2 displays Splitter cable - 2 separated leads for the displays for greater reliability and eliminates signal interference. Duplicates the image from the video source to 2 displays. If I did not understand your question I apologize

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Just to clarify regarding this question, the cable will only work going from an HDMI output source to a VGA input. So if your PC has HDMI output and your TV has VGA input, it's likely this will work. If it's the other way around (VGA output to HDMI input) it will not work.
