Description
Short by design, zero quality loss.
When your DVI monitor sits right next to your HDMI tower, you don't need six feet of cable in the way — this 3ft cable delivers the same lossless conversion, sized for compact desks.
When your DVI monitor sits right next to your HDMI-equipped tower or laptop dock, you don't need six feet of cable in the way — you need three. This short HDMI-to-DVI cable delivers the same lossless digital video conversion as our longer version, sized for compact desks, small-form-factor PCs, and behind-the-monitor mounts where excess cable is just clutter.

Bidirectional Digital Video, No Quality Loss
HDMI and DVI-D share the same digital signal, so converting between them causes no drop in picture quality. This cable works either direction — HDMI-to-DVI or DVI-to-HDMI — and the short 3ft length keeps a compact desktop free of excess cable slack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 3ft enough for a typical desktop-to-monitor setup?
Yes, for setups where the tower and monitor sit close together, such as a small-form-factor PC or all-in-one desk arrangement.
Will I lose picture quality with this conversion?
No — HDMI and DVI-D share the same digital signal, so there's no quality loss.
Does this carry sound?
No, DVI does not support audio; you'll need a separate audio output.
Do HDMI cables go bad over time?
Yes, though not from normal use — it's almost always physical damage at the connector (bent pins, a cracked shell, a stressed strain-relief boot) or corrosion on unplated contacts. This cable's gold-plated connectors and molded strain relief at both ends are built to resist exactly that kind of wear.
