Introduction

The USB32HDDVII USB 3.0 to HDMI® and DVI-I Dual Head Adapter turns an available

USB 3.0 port into one DVI-I or VGA port (DVI to VGA adapter included) and one

HDMI®output, with support for high-denition 1080p and 1920x1200 video and 5.1

surround sound audio (from HDMI®port only). The adapter delivers a convenient

external video solution that makes it easy to add multi-monitor capability to a USB-

enabled desktop or laptop computer (optimal performance from USB 3.0, backward

compatible with USB 2.0).

Leveraging the high-bandwidth (5 Gbps) SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface, the USB video

adapter functions as a convenient external graphics card that eliminates having to

open the computer case for video card installation. The adapter delivers smooth, high-

denition content to multiple displays and can be used to mirror your primary desktop,

showing the same image on each display, or to extend your desktop onto a second or

third monitor to double or triple your workspace and increase your productivity.

The USB 3.0 HDMI®and DVI-I Adapter is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and

includes free lifetime technical support.
