🧠📺 DVI • VGA Splitter
This adapter splits a single analog DVI-I signal into two VGA outputs. It’s ideal for duplicating content across two legacy monitors or projectors, especially in environments where synchronized visuals are key.
🔧 Adapter Format & Use Case
- 🔌 DVI-I Male → Dual VGA Female
- Splits one analog video signal into two VGA outputs
- Use Case: Mirror a single DVI-I source to two VGA displays simultaneously
🖥️ Compatible Devices
- 💻 Desktop PCs or laptops with DVI-I output (24+5 pin layout)
- 📺 VGA monitors, projectors, industrial panels
- 🏫 Classroom, kiosk, or training setups with mirrored displays
- 🧠 Diagnostic stations or legacy AV rigs
✅ Common Uses
- 🧠 Mirror PC output to two VGA monitors for presentations or signage
- 🏪 Display identical content on dual screens in retail or kiosk setups
- 🧯 Connect legacy VGA displays to a single DVI-I source
- 🛠️ Split analog video signal for testing or duplication
- 🎮 Use with older graphics cards that support DVI-I analog output
🧠 Signal Format Notes
- ⚙️ DVI-I: Integrated analog + digital; this splitter uses the analog pins
- 📡 VGA: Analog RGBHV video only—no audio
- 🔁 Passive splitter—no signal conversion or amplification
- 📉 Both VGA displays must support same resolution and refresh rate
- 🔇 No audio support—VGA is video-only
⚠️ Things to Watch Out For
- 🚫 Not compatible with DVI-D (digital-only) ports—requires DVI-I
- 📉 Only one VGA output may work reliably depending on GPU power
- 🧯 Not suitable for extending desktop or dual independent displays
- 🧪 May require manual resolution matching on both monitors
- 🔌 No HDCP support—won’t work with protected content
🛠️ Quick Tips for Beginners
- 🧠 Confirm your DVI port is DVI-I (look for 24+5 pin layout)
- 📏 Keep VGA cable runs short to avoid analog signal degradation
- 🧲 Use gold-plated connectors for better contact and durability
- 🏷️ Label outputs clearly in multi-monitor setups
- 🔍 Test with one monitor first before adding second to verify compatibility
