Plugable’s Mini DisplayPort to DVI passive adapter (MDPM-DVIF) allows you to connect from a Thunderbolt 2 or Mini Dual-Mode DisplayPort (DP++) output on your laptop, desktop, or tablet to virtually any DVI-enabled display.
Passive adapters rely on the DisplayPort output of the host system to provide the necessary signaling to support an DVI display.
The adapter supports resolutions up to 1920×1200 @ 60Hz refresh rate.
Are you wondering if your DisplayPort output supports DP++? These ports are often noted with a DP++ symbol next to the port itself. If you may be unsure if your DisplayPort port is DP++ capable, please check with your system manufacturer.
