Videokabeladapter DELL 5KMR3

The DELL 5KMR3 video cable adapter enables connection from a DisplayPort source to a VGA (D-Sub) display. Designed as a short, compact adapter with a 0.17 m cable length and a lightweight build, it provides a straightforward solution for linking modern DisplayPort-equipped laptops, desktops or docking stations to legacy VGA monitors, projectors or other VGA inputs. The adapter converts the DisplayPort output to an analog VGA signal and fits common use scenarios where backward compatibility is required.

Advantages

The adapter is compact and portable, making it convenient for travel or mobile work setups. Its simple one-piece design requires no external power or drivers for standard use, and the short cable reduces clutter on a desk or in a bag. The adapter supports plug-and-play connection between DisplayPort sources and VGA displays, facilitating compatibility with older equipment without complex configuration.

Suitable for

• Connecting a laptop or PC with DisplayPort to an older VGA monitor
• Using a modern docking station with a legacy VGA projector
• Temporary setups in meeting rooms, classrooms, or presentations where VGA input is required

Key specifications

• Connector 1: DisplayPort (male)
• Connector 2: VGA (D-Sub, female)
• Cable length: 0.17 m
• Weight: 0.1 kg
• Signal conversion: digital DisplayPort to analog VGA

How to use

Connect the DisplayPort end of the adapter to the DisplayPort output on your computer, docking station or graphics card. Attach the VGA cable from the display or projector to the VGA (D-Sub) connector on the adapter and secure the VGA connector screws if present. Power on the source and the display; the connected device should detect the external monitor automatically and use standard video settings. Adjust resolution and display settings in the operating system if necessary to match the VGA display capabilities.

Recommendations

For best results, use the adapter with displays that support the desired resolution through VGA and set appropriate refresh rates. Avoid excessive bending of the short cable and secure connectors during transport. If image quality or resolution appears limited, verify the target display’s maximum analog resolution and adjust the source device settings accordingly.
