The Tendak Active HDMI to VGA Converter solves a specific problem: getting a modern HDMI source onto a VGA monitor or projector that has no digital input. It accepts a female HDMI input and outputs female VGA, with a 3.5mm stereo jack that breaks audio out to powered speakers or a display that lacks its own sound path. That makes it a practical bridge for a laptop, PS3, Xbox, set-top box, Blu-ray player, DVD player, or TV stick feeding an older display, a classroom projector, or a retro CRT-era monitor in a build. Active conversion handles the HDMI digital-to-VGA analog step, supporting 720p…

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this adapter work in reverse, from VGA to HDMI?

No. Tendak states this converter is NOT bi-directional; it converts an HDMI (female) signal to VGA (female) only. A VGA source will not output to an HDMI display through it.

Do I need an HDMI cable, or does it plug straight into my laptop?

You need a separate HDMI cable. The HDMI side is female, so the adapter connects to your laptop, PS3, Xbox, or TV stick through an HDMI cable rather than plugging in directly.

How do I get audio, since VGA carries video only?

Use the built-in 3.5mm stereo audio port. It routes the audio out to powered speakers or to a display with its own 3.5mm input, since the VGA connection itself carries no sound.

What resolutions does it support?

It supports 720p and 1080p full-size high-definition output, and handles HDMI V1.4 and 3D sources. 1080p is the ceiling, so higher-resolution sources need to be set down to 1080p or below.

My monitor shows nothing or says out of range. What should I do?

Per Tendak, adjust the resolution on both your input source and your monitor to below 1080p. The company also states it will respond to product issues within 24 hours if that does not resolve it.
