You can connect up to three displays with Mini DisplayPort or Digital Visual Interface (DVI) connectors to the display ports on the back of your Mac Pro. The DVI display port is a dual-link port, so you can connect a 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display.

DVI display port Mini DisplayPort (2)

You can also connect displays that have an Apple Display Connector (ADC) or a video graphics array (VGA) connector using one of the following adapters:

ÂÂ To connect a VGA display to the DVI display port or a Mini DisplayPort, use the Apple DVI to VGA Display Adapter or the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter (both available separately).

ÂÂ To connect an ADC display to the DVI display port, use an Apple DVI to ADC Display Adapter (available separately).

The Mini DisplayPort outputs provide both video and audio output. For example, using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and an HDMI cable, you can connect your computer to an HDTV or AV receiver that has an HDMI connector and play both audio and video. You must use the Sound pane in System Preferences to select the connected device for audio output. For more information about connecting an HDMI device, search for “HDMI” on the Mac Pro Support page at www.apple.com/support/macpro.

Display adapters and other accessories for your Mac Pro are sold separately at www.apple.com/store.
