Mini Displayport To Dvi Converter For Mac
I have a similar question. I have a brand new MBP with Thunderbolt. Work just bout me a 27' Thunderbolt display. Great so far. I also have a high-end Dell laptop. I want to connect the DVI out on the Dell base station to my Thunderbolt display. I have a mini-display port to DVI adapted. Plugged that into my MBP Thunderbolt display and got the second monitor up on from my MBP. Now when the new Thunderbolt monitor gets here, I am really hoping that I will be able to reverse the flow and connect from the DVI out of my Dell base station, to the DVI-mini-diplayport and into the back Thunderbolt port and then display the image on the Thunderbolt display.
I can confirm that Mini DisplayPort to DVI converter works ONLY from a Mini DisplayPort computer port to a DVI display. The reverse direction is not supported by those converters, but there are other much more expensive ones that will convert DVI computer ports to Mini DisplayPort display.
Berthand, Regard an aledged adapter... I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it. Think about it, Apple would prefer you upgrade the computer and they don't even make their own minidisplay port to HDMI adapter. I suspect the techie I spoke to was confused regarding exactly what we want to do. So I have a perfectly good MBP that can't use a Thunderbolt display, my wife has a new MBAir. We'll probably just buy a cheap DVI display from Best Buy for now.
As for the signal conversion solutions, you have to consider that this is the first wave of such solutions. Although an all-in-one multi-format converter/scaler would have been nice from the start, I have to applaud Atlona, since the AT-DP200 is fully HDCP compliant, thus allowing Blu-ray to be viewed on the iMac without a Windows software solution (you will need a standalone Blu-ray player instead).
The Mini-DVI connector is used on certain Apple computers as a digital alternative to the Mini-VGA connector. Its size is between the full-sized DVI and the tiny Micro-DVI. It is found on the 12-inch PowerBook G4 (except the original 12-inch 867 MHz PowerBook G4, which used Mini-VGA), the Intel-based iMac, the MacBook Intel-based laptop, the Intel-based Xserve, the 2009 Mac mini, and some late model eMacs.
From 1999 until 2016, Apple released and continued to sell a series of external digitally connected displays optimized for Mac users. The displays started with DVI connectors, shifted to the Apple-made ADC connection, then back to DVI, expanded to dual-link DVI, pivoted to industry-standard Mini DisplayPort, and finally ended with Thunderbolt 2 connectors. After not making a display for a while, Apple returned to the market with its own Thunderbolt 3 display, the Pro Display XDR, and began shipping it in December 2020 for a minimum of $5,000. It now also sells the Studio Display, which starts at $1,599. 2ff7e9595c
