ZATECH HDMI to VGA Cable 1.5m - HDMI Output to VGA Input, 3.5mm Audio

Connect a modern HDMI source to an older VGA display with this direct HDMI-to-VGA cable. At 1.5 metres, it's a convenient length for connecting a laptop or set-top box to a nearby VGA monitor or projector without the bulk of a separate converter box.

This is a one-directional cable — it takes an HDMI output and converts it to a VGA input only, it does not work the other way around. A 3.5mm audio plug is included to carry sound separately, since VGA itself does not support audio transmission.

Ideal for

Good to know

This cable is one-way only — from an HDMI source to a VGA display — and cannot convert a VGA signal up to HDMI. For audio to come through the 3.5mm plug, you may need to disable your PC or laptop's default sound card output so audio is routed through the cable instead. It is not designed to work with Blu-ray players, PS3, PS4, or Apple and Sony devices, so check compatibility with your specific source equipment before buying.
