About this product
Got a MacBook, iMac, or Surface with a Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 2 port and a conference-room VGA projector or legacy monitor? This Mini DisplayPort to VGA cable converts the digital signal to analog VGA at up to 1920x1200 (1080p Full HD) in a single cable, removing the separate adapter dongle that's a common point of signal loss in classroom and meeting-room setups. Built with 32 AWG tinned copper conductors for a slim, flexible profile, integrated active conversion circuitry, gold-plated Mini DP contacts, and HD-15 VGA captive thumbscrews. Compatible with MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air (pre-2016 with Mini DP/Thunderbolt 2), Mac Pro, iMac, Mac Mini, Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and 4, and any HD-15 VGA monitor or projector (Epson, BenQ, NEC, ViewSonic). Best for: Mini DP source to analog VGA monitor or projector at up to 1080p Full HD. Not for: VGA-to-Mini-DP reverse, USB-C MacBook (post-2016), or digital HDMI/DVI displays. RoHS compliant.

Mini DP to VGA — Plug-and-Play, No Dongle
Connects a Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 2 Mac, Surface, or laptop directly to an HD-15 VGA monitor or projector in one cable. Built-in active conversion handles the digital-to-analog signal change with no external power required — the cable draws what it needs from the Mini DP source.
1080p Full HD up to 1920x1200 — Analog VGA
Carries up to 1920x1200 (1080p Full HD) analog VGA video. Built to VESA Mini DisplayPort and VESA HD-15 VGA specifications. Note: VGA is analog video only — no audio is carried over the cable. For audio, use a separate 3.5mm or HDMI path from the source.
Quick Compatibility Check
Works with: MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air (pre-2016, Mini DP/Thunderbolt 2); Mac Pro, iMac, Mac Mini; Surface Pro 3 and 4; Lenovo ThinkPad with Mini DP. Yes — VGA conference-room projectors and legacy LCD monitors. No — USB-C MacBook (post-2016). No — VGA source to Mini DP. No — audio.
Slim 32 AWG, Captive VGA Thumbscrews
Mini DisplayPort 20-pin male on one end; HD-15 VGA male connector with captive thumbscrews on the other for a locked projector or wall-plate connection. Gold-plated Mini DP contacts. 32 AWG tinned copper conductors give the cable a slim, easy-to-route profile. Molded strain relief at both ends.
Sample-Tested Production — Cable Leader Direct Support
Each cable is sample-tested during production for conversion stability and connector retention. Manufactured to RoHS environmental standards (lead, mercury, and cadmium-free). If your cable arrives defective or stops working in normal use, Cable Leader handles replacement requests directly — no manufacturer redirects.
