Product Information
Full details
The Dell HDMI to DVI Adapter is for users needing to connect devices with an HDMI output to displays with a DVI-D input. Its key benefit is enabling crisp video playback up to 1920x1200 resolution, bridging the gap between modern HDMI sources and older DVI-D displays. A potential caveat is that it only supports digital DVI-D and not analog DVI-A signals.

No, the Dell HDMI to DVI Adapter is designed for video signals only and does not transmit audio. You will need a separate audio connection.
What is the maximum resolution supported?
The adapter supports a maximum video resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels.
Can I use this to connect a DVI-D output to an HDMI input?
No, this adapter is specifically designed to convert HDMI output to DVI-D input. It is not bi-directional.
What does DVI-D mean?
DVI-D stands for Digital Visual Interface - Digital. This means it supports only digital video signals, which is what this adapter is designed to work with.
How large is the adapter?
The adapter measures approximately 1.75 inches in width and 0.75 inches in height, making it very compact and portable.
Is any software installation required?
No, this is a plug-and-play device, meaning it requires no software installation. It works immediately upon connection.
What is the warranty for this adapter?
Dell typically offers a Lifetime Limited Hardware Warranty and Lifetime Advanced Exchange Service for this adapter, but it's recommended to verify specific warranty terms at the time of purchase.
Troubleshooting
No video signal on the display
Ensure both the source device and the display are powered on. Verify that the HDMI cable is securely connected to the source and the adapter, and the DVI-D cable is securely connected to the adapter and the display. Confirm the display is set to the correct DVI-D input source. Check that your display supports the resolution being output by the source device.
Flickering or distorted video
Check that all cable connections are secure and that the cables are not damaged. Try a different HDMI or DVI-D cable to rule out a faulty cable. Ensure the output resolution from the source device is supported by the display.
Audio is missing
This adapter does not support audio transmission. Connect a separate audio cable (e.g., 3.5mm audio jack) from your source device to your display or speakers if audio is required.
Adapter not recognized
Since this is a plug-and-play device, re-plugging the adapter might resolve the issue. Ensure the source device's HDMI port and the display's DVI-D port are functioning correctly.
