OVERVIEW
Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the digital video computer standard developed by Silicon Image, offers a simple, plug-and-play method for connecting a laptop computer to a projector. DVI cable provides a connection between two devices via the DVI interface.
We offer a cable that has a DVI-I male connector on one end and an HD15 male, or DVI-D male to DVI-D male or female connector. All cables come in 6-foot (1.8-m) and 10-foot (3-m) lengths.
There are five different types of DVI connectors: DVI-D, DVI-I, DVI-A, DFP, and EVC.
•DVI-D is a digital-only connector; it’s the leading connector standard for digital-only connection.
•DVI-I can support digital and analog (RGB). The connector has a few more pins, and some display- and graphics-card manufacturers are offering this connector type on their products, as opposed to separate analog and digital connectors. Some manufacturers do not support analog connection.
•DVI-A is used to carry an analog DVI signal to a VGA device, such as a display.
•DFP was an early digital-only connector used on some displays, but it’s being phased out.
•EVC (or P&D) is another connector that some manufacturers are using on their projectors. This connector looks a lot like the DVI-I connector, but is slightly larger in size. Like DVI-I, it also handles analog and digital.
