Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ Ultra-thin flat wire routes under carpet and along baseboards where round VGA cable will not fit
  • ✓ 3 coax RGB conductors plus 6 dedicated sync lines instead of bundled unshielded wire
  • ✓ Gold-plated HD15 connectors resist corrosion on ports that sit connected for years
  • ✓ Screw-in thumbscrews on both ends keep the connection tight when the monitor moves

Cons

  • ✗ VGA is analog only, so no audio, and no signal on HDMI or DisplayPort-only machines
  • ✗ 6ft fixed length is short for tower-under-desk or ceiling-projector runs
  • ✗ Flat cable geometry resists coiling and stores awkwardly in a cable bag
  • ✗ Male-to-male only, so extending it needs a separate coupler or gender changer

Manufacturer description

The DTECH Thin Computer Monitor VGA Cable is a 6-foot (1.8 meter) male-to-male VGA cord built for tight spaces. Its ultra-thin flat profile bends easily behind a desk, tucks along a baseboard, or runs under carpet without the coil memory of a thick round cable. Inside, three coaxial RGB conductors plus six sync lines carry the analog video signal, and bare copper conductors with full cable shielding guard against EM and RF interference. Gold-plated HD15 connectors resist corrosion, and the thumbscrews on each end screw into the port so the cable stays put when you move the monitor. If you…

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this VGA cable work with my HDMI laptop?

No. Both ends are 15-pin male VGA connectors, so your laptop and display both need a VGA port. An HDMI-only machine requires an active HDMI-to-VGA adapter, sold separately.

How long is the cable, exactly?

6 feet, which DTECH also lists as 1.8 meters. That is measured connector to connector, so plan your routing with a little slack at each end.

Does it carry audio along with video?

No. VGA is a video-only analog standard. You will need a separate 3.5mm audio cable or your monitor's own speaker input for sound.

Is it thin enough to run under a carpet or rug?

Yes, that is the design intent. DTECH markets the ultra-thin flat profile specifically for tight spaces and under-carpet runs, where a round VGA cable would create a visible ridge.

Will it stay plugged in, or does it slip out?

Both HD15 ends have thumbscrews that screw into the port's threaded posts, so the cable holds even if you swivel or reposition the monitor.
