Gefen's New Adapter Line Makes Apple-To-Monitor Connections Easy
Gefen has a knack for delivering some pretty high-end, niche adapters in the audio/video world, and if you can dream up a conversion scenario, they can probably hook you up with an adapter to handle it. That also means that most of their wares are priced too high for the average consumer, but the company's latest lineup really hits home in the PC world. Specifically, the Mac world.
Apple has made the executive decision to start supporting DisplayPort across their product lines, but that's leaving quite a few customers in the dark when it comes time to use items they already have with HDMI, DVI and/or VGA ports. Gefen's three new adapters makes it possible to easily connect any new Mac with a Mini DisplayPort adapter to a flat-panel monitor using HDMI, DVI, VGA or the full-size DisplayPort socket.
At just $49, the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter is a small, simple dongle that bridges the gap between Apple and your "old" display, while the other adapters (listed below in full) do similar tasks but with different connectors. Spending $49 here sure beats buying a new monitor, right?
