USB Graphics Adapters

Plugable Adapter

DisplayLink virtual graphics processing is the secret ingredient that enables a range of USB adapters, such as:

  • USB to DVI
  • USB to HDMI (video + audio), and
  • USB to VGA

All these adapters, which are produced by a growing number of world-class manufacturers, let you easily either a mirror or extended display to your notebook or laptop. With USB, the easiest connection possible, your DisplayLink-based adapter lets you daisychain as many as six monitors to your PC or Mac. You can run these additional monitors without adding a graphics card to the PC, because DisplayLink’s video processing software finds the optimal blended usage of the computer’s main CPU chip and its graphics processing chip. The combination of DisplayLink software and video decoding chips (usually embedded in the adapter cable or unit) opens up a world of extended and large-screen display versatility, with smooth image movement (known as low latency) and 32-bit color graphics.

Now, with the advent of USB 3.0 adapters based on DisplayLink chips and virtual graphics, the use of large HDTVs as displays for mobile devices and tablet PCs will become an everyday convenience. USB 3.0's bandwidth means ultra low latency and smooth window and cursor movement. DisplayLink adapters are compact and economical, but they open the door to a much bigger and richer mobile computing, entertainment and media sharing experience.

  • Excellent performance on extended displays via USB to DVI, USB to VGA, and USB to HDMI
  • Can be extremely compact and economical
  • Daisychain up to six displays for large-scale spreadsheets and multitasking
  • USB 3.0 enables use of HDTV as large-screen display up to 2560 x 1600 resolution
