6ft HDMI to DVI Display Cable | Bi-Directional HDMI-DVI Video Cord
Bridge the gap, lose nothing.
Plenty of solid monitors and older GPUs are stuck on DVI while everything else moved to HDMI — this 6ft cable bridges them with a lossless digital signal, no adapter dongle required.
Plenty of solid monitors and older graphics cards are stuck on DVI while everything else has moved to HDMI — this 6ft cable solves that mismatch directly, with no bulky adapter dongle to lose or fail. Because HDMI and DVI-D carry the same digital video signal, the conversion is lossless: what your GPU outputs is exactly what reaches your screen. It's a simple, reliable fix for keeping a good older monitor in service instead of replacing it.
Lossless Digital Conversion, Either Direction
No signal conversion chip is required — DVI-D and HDMI share the same TMDS video signal, so this cable works HDMI-to-DVI or DVI-to-HDMI depending on which end is the source. The 6ft length comfortably reaches from a desktop tower to a nearby monitor.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I lose picture quality going from HDMI to DVI?
No — HDMI and DVI-D use the same underlying digital video signal, so the conversion is lossless.
Does this carry audio to my DVI monitor?
No, DVI does not support audio. You'll need a separate audio connection (e.g., speakers connected directly to your PC).
How long can an HDMI cable be?
Passive HDMI cables reliably run up to about 25-50ft before signal degradation becomes a risk; beyond that, an active or booster cable is recommended. At 6ft, this cable is well within reliable range with no signal-loss concerns.
Which end plugs into my graphics card?
Whichever end matches your GPU's output port — the cable works in either direction (HDMI source or DVI source).
