The photo shows DisplayPort (male) and DVI-D (female). I assume this is a mistake and that the cable on offer is Male-Male. Can someone confirm?

It's just as the photo shows. The dvi-d port is male, I think you are mistaking it for a female connection.

The cable ships with the end connectors as shown in the picture. The DVI side is the proper connector to plug into a video card or monitor.

I think it's just a bad picture of the cable that may be confusing. It looks like male-male to me and the cable that I got was male-male.

yep, its male to male! Goes into displayport on my laptop and connects to dvi input on my monitor

The photo is correct. Many Display Port converters are used to connect the display port to a DVI cable, which is then hooked to the monitor, and those have the DVI end you are describing. Since this has a cable already, the end is designed to hook directly up to the DVI port on the monitor, and no additional cable is needed. I just installed one of these, and the cable appears to be high quality. I plugged the display port end directly into the video card and the DVI end directly to the monitor. Worked like a charm!

Display port is female depending on how you interpret it. The illustration is correct I have ordered several of these.

Hi, this is not an active cable. But you could find Active Mini DisplayPort to DVI Male to Female Adapter from below link, thanks. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EDSZYII

Does the monitor work? Are you connecting it were another monitor was already connected? Already mentioned but is the monitor set to the right port? If you have more then just a new monitor you need to eliminate everything that is different in your new setup. Have you used the display port before? Is this a new cable? You already said the monitor was new.

I have two VGA ㅡhdmi ports. I have to check which one is male part or women part. I guess hdml is women part. I am out of town now. Whenever I come back home, I will contact you .

I have two monitors next to each other, one is the VGA and one is display port to VGA. If there is a difference it doesn't seem very apparent to me. Looks the same.

Hi Thank you for your interest. This monitor doesn't have Mini displayport but Displayport. So you need Mini displayport to Displayport cable. And some cheap cable may not compatible with the monitor. Included cable is only DVI-D(dual link) cable. Thank you.

Hi Andrea, this cable is female to male, you must buy later an Female To 1/4 Male Adapter. Hopes this help you. See you.

Yes, depending on which Dvi you're using, (there are several types) there is usually a higher resolution than you would get from a VGA cable.

I looked at the back area and all ports or connected, so I'm guessing it comes with the DVI cord. (Its been a bit of time since I received and hooked up.) Hope this answer helps.

Yes, but these monitors are glitchy with DVI-D. I have returned mine to the site I bought from

I'm sorry, I don't know what the Asus Chromebox is? I looked at the item and it says it is a male DVI connector. I am not that familiar with the display port portion of the equation, but the specs say it is a DVI connector. If you scroll down the page a little more from the basic product information, it gives you the specs of the cable.

There are both, however you must provide your own HDMI Cord. The DVI is included.

The cable I was sent was male to male on both the sound and VGA cable. As long as you are going VGA to VGA connector no problem.

The Main Cable is male, both ends.... which is what I mainly use it for (a retractable HDMI cable). The 3 ends are each HDM (female) to convert over to DVI, Mini or Micro.

This is only a DVI-D Single-Link cable. The dual link cable can carry higher resolutions and more data due to their higher throughput. If your monitor is not more than 1080p (1920x1080) or WUXGA (1920x1200) @ 60Hz or less, this will work fine. If you are trying to use a 2K, qHD, or 4K monitor, then you will have to use either a Display port or at least the dual-link version of the DVI. Either that or deal with something like 17FPS.

There is a bit of confusion about this on the description of this cable, I ran into to this myself. This is in fact a dual link dvi cable. A dvi cable connector that isn't a dual link is missing a section of 9 pins in the middle. I don't understand their description of it being dvi to dvi dual link, either. For me it functions exactly as my other dual link cables. Hope this helps. Here is a link that may help you out as a reference. http://mobile.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/pc-peripheral/3365585/how-tell-dvi-i-dvi-d-cables-apart/
