High Performance Connection Between HDMI and DVI Components / Cables Makes Hookup Easy!
HDMI, the hottest high-definition digital audio/video standard, is compatible with all digital video connection, DVI. So, if you've got DVI components (like DVD player, Cable box, HDTV tuner with DVI outputs) in your system and buy a new HDMI-capable component (like Plasma TV or projector), compatibility is guaranteed.
This adaptor makes it easy to enjoy the ultra-high definition video HDMI delivers with HDMI to DVI adaptor.
Two different adaptors let you connect new HDMI-capable sources to existing DVI-capable displays and cables, or new HDMI-capable displays to DVI-capable sources.
With an advantage design and construction that include corrosion-resistant 24k gold contacts and silver-coated copper conductors for improved conductivity, the fastest and easiest way to "adapt" your HDMI and DVI cable and equipment is with DVI single link Male to HDMI Female.

Customer Reviews

yes

works great. No problems. Don't listen to the Debbie Downers. (wah wahhh)

Does exactly what it is supposed to do.

Does what it says

It works fine, plugged it into the second spot on the video card, plugged in the hdmi cable, set up the TV as a second monitor and the signal is clean and bright.

Great deal, but not perfect

This is a good DVI-to-HDMI converter that I'm currently using to connect a MacBook to a 720p HDTV through another adapter (mini-DVI-to-DVI). This adaptor suits that purpose well and displays the image as expected.

I was a bit concerned to see that one of the pins on the male DVI side was shorter than the others, but so far that doesn't seem to have caused any problems with the signal. Also, the physical connections on both the male DVI and female HDMI sides are very tight; I have to give an abnormal extra amount of force to join the adapter to my computer and my HDMI cable. I was initially worried that the extra force might cause some damage, but so far everything appears to be fine.

For the price, this adapter is an amazing deal. Although it doesn't seem to have been manufactured entirely correctly, this adapter does perform as expected and provides a great digital video signal.

Great Converter...great customer service?

I bought this converter once, e-mailed three times to tell them I hadn't received it, but after three weeks they sent another one. I guess I'm happy with the service, but it took a long time to get it. My computer dvi looks great through the hdmi cable in 1080p. No complaints, just wish it had come sooner.

Potential speed bump

I bought this mainly because of the cost and because I had a HDMI cable and not a HDMI-DVI cable in my stash. I thought that I'd try this before I went the other option. I have probably quite a unique use of it. I have an old plasma that doesn't have HDMI but is cable of providing 1080p via the VGA port. So I initially purchased a HDFury (which rocks) and only had a monster 8ft hdmi available so I thought I'd try this... In most cases it works great, however during quick action shots (sports + action films) I see the stuttering of pixels. I tried with and without it and got much better results without to be fair. That said my tests were not 100% conclusive but with what I had it did seem to point to the adapter. What I didn't do is test on a shorter than 16ft hdmi cable. I did read a few places that these adapters can act as a speed bump...

I'm sure I'll use it somewhere but for now the jury is out hence the 3/5.
