Vanco 280173X Displayport to Hdmi Adapter

Product Description

The VANCO 280173X is a passive adapter that converts a DisplayPort male signal to an HDMI female output, allowing a DisplayPort source device to connect to an HDMI-equipped display or cable run. This adapter is used in AV system installations where source equipment outputs DisplayPort but the downstream display or distribution equipment requires an HDMI interface. It is a compact, single-unit passive adapter requiring no external power. AV integrators and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers for this type of device.

This adapter is suited for residential and commercial AV installations where a DisplayPort-equipped computer, graphics card, or media source needs to connect to an HDMI monitor, projector, or HDMI distribution system. It is sold as a single unit and fits within HDMI distribution signal chains where source-side conversion is needed at the point of connection.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style adapter for use in HDMI distribution systems where a DisplayPort male source must interface with an HDMI female input or cable.

Installation Notes

This adapter is typically installed by low-voltage AV technicians during system integration or equipment setup. Power down or sleep the source device before connecting or disconnecting signal adapters to avoid hotplug detection issues. Verify that the source device supports passive DisplayPort-to-HDMI conversion, as some configurations may require an active adapter. Follow all applicable low-voltage installation guidelines for the project jurisdiction.
