Cable Matters DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (DP to HDMI Adapter is NOT Compatible with USB Ports, Do NOT Order for USB Ports on Computers)

I tried several different ones and none of them workedThis item, if you’re running from a display port back to HDMI (TV) this works.

I gotta preface this by saying I made a mistake. I assumed this was an active adapter, as I didn't realize they made "inactive" ones. I also didnt realize this was limited to 1080P. So that was an issue for me, as I meant to use this with a Huion Camvas 16 Pro, which has a 1440P screen but only takes HDMI. Needless to say, this didnt work with my tablet. Hopefully this can help someone else looking for a similar device to use with their tablet - look for an active adapter that can handle 1440P or 4K!However, for me not all was lost, as I was using my single HDMI port from my graphics card to output to a home theater receiver that I use for my speakers. So I plugged the Huion to the HDMI on my graphics card and used this DP to HDMI adapter to connect to the receiver via HDMI, and it worked! I was kinda surprised, as I didnt expect DP to also output audio, but it does. Worked perfectly!Aside from that, the adapter feels well made and sturdy. Seems pretty quality.

I bought this as a quick fix when I discovered another brand I bought failed to work with my computer to TV HDMI connection. This unit has a very high compatibility rate and low failure rate. I'm using this to connect a PC to my TV so my son and I can play some legacy video games that I have on my PC.PROS:- Converts DisplayPort to HDMI- Highly Compatible- Nice snug connectionsCONS:- None yet

I purchased several of these Display Port to HDMI cable adapters to go with the various servers and laptops that I own. Since all of these computers only come with Display Ports and not HDMI, they are an absolute necessity to connect up to HDTV's and monitors.I own Display Port to HDMI adapters made by Bytek, Cobol, SYBA, and a couple other mfgs. These Cable Matters adapters are built as good as the best. The Display Port end has retractable cleats to lock into the port. This is a nice feature to keep a secure connection. The Female HDMI end doesn't have cleats but the fit of the cable in the female HDMI end is snug enough to hold it in place if you are not moving it around alot. I have not connected and disconnected cables from these adapters 100's of times to see if the fit loosens up. All I can say is that the fit is as good as any other adapter, and better than most.The cable portion of the adapter is flexible enough to take a 180 degree bend but, not limp. I will say that, there might be some problem if you are planning on plugging into a device that is right up against a wall. Allow an absolute minimum of 8cm (3+ inches) between the back of the device and the wall. You cannot unplug or plug in the adapter in that tight space, it is just enough to have the adapter end plugged into the device and the cable bent at 90 degrees.I purchased these as returned or opened pieces. Some of the devices came in opened packaging but a couple looked to be new. Once out of the bag, they are indistinguishable from new adapters.Performance is as good as the best Display Port to HDMI adapters I own. The adapters are plug'n'play. Windows 7 64-bit (or 32-bit) Pro has no problem with the adapters. Both surround sound and 1080p video are transmitted with no difficulty. I did not try to transmit gigabyte size data files and test transmission rates. All I can say is that they work great for 1080p and surround sound audio.As returned/refurbished items I only got about a 5% discount over the new price. I would have liked the less expensive but the price was competitive and the performance has been excellent so far.

My Dell laptop 7300 only has one HDMI port and my laptop screen is small and my docking station only has one HDMI and 2 DP so plug the 2nd one in using this it works great with a wireless keyboard just close the laptop and 2 large screens

--update 11/24/2018:After reformatting my PC and setting up fresh Windows 10 installation, my computer was consistently crashing and the monitor was turning black with random glitchy colors on it. The culprit seemed to be this adapter, as when I had my TV plugged into the computer, only then was this occurring. After much finagling around, I determined the NVidia driver that was installed by default with the Windows updates was to blame. If you're having trouble with this adapter, before blaming the hardware, make sure to check that your system is running the latest drivers from manufacturer websites, not necessarily what Windows thinks is best.--update 11/06/2018:I reached out to the company to let them know about the issue. There is a chance the product failing may not have been their fault, as power went out and this was not the only device on the hdmi line that stopped working. That said, I reached out to let them know my adapter was no longer working, after ordering another one that worked to confirm it was in fact my adapter that was the problem. They were very quick to refund me for my initial order, and the new adapter is still working. Also, I bought a warranty during the second order from square trade for about 1 dollar for 4-years of coverage. This may be something to consider if anyone looks to buy one of these things and lives in an area where they may be prone to power outages. I used to think having a good surge protector was enough, but it seems this may be an unfair assumption.--original comment:I ordered one of these and it stopped working. I ordered another one of these to make sure it was actually the adapter and confirmed it is. Is there anyway the initial order can be refunded? Thank you

Got for a pc to tv setup at work. Works great
