For me, a heavy HDMI cable coming out of this type of adapter puts too much strain on the video card connector and would eventually lead to failure. The combination of stiff cable + adapter sticking out of the video card acts like a lever for anything that bumps into it or if the cable is accidentally pulled on. I also found those adapters to be a poor fit to the HDMI cables- they were very tight and a lot of pressure needed to be exerted to insert the cable into the adapter. By contrast the StarTech adapter with it's short flexible cable puts any strain much closer to the video card and removes the leveraging effect of the other type of adapter. Because it has a short cable, if the HDMI cable plugged into it gets snagged or tugged from the side, it's much more likely to pull free from the adapter, instead of snapping the connector off the video card. This adapter was more expensive than the first kind I got from a chinese seller, but it's much better built, the connectors fit better, and it's a lot cheaper than replacing a video card because it's connector got snapped off. All things considered, a very good buy. Review: Worked exactly as I expected. - My old computer has no DVI connection, and I had been using a VGA port and cable to connect to my old monitor. The computer, however, did have an HDMI port in the back that wasn't being used. I was able to use this short, inexpensive cable, which has an HDMI plug at one end and a female DVI port at the other, to convert to the HDMI connection on my computer, and plug the DVI cable for my new monitor into that. It worked perfectly. Once I disconnected the old VGA cable, the new monitor came on, and has worked normally since. I highly recommend this product. ## Features - 8” DVI TO HDMI CABLE: Unlike static adapters, this HDMI male to DVI female adapter uses a cable to reduce strain on the HDMI port while connected to a DVI monitor and ensures other ports are still accessible - EXTEND YOUR DISPLAY: This HDMI to DVI-D dongle is bidirectional and supports screen extending as well as mirroring - DURABLE AND PORTABLE: This HDMI male to DVI female adapter features aluminum-mylar foil with braided shielding along with a slim design, preparing you for presenting on the go - PLUG AND PLAY: This 1080p adapter cable doesn't require any drivers, so you can be sure it'll work with any laptop ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009YCASUW | | Best Sellers Rank | #166 in DVI-HDMI Adapters | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (4,142) | | Date First Available | October 29, 2012 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 1.27 ounces | | Item model number | HDDVIMF8IN | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | StarTech.com | | Product Dimensions | 8 x 1.6 x 0.4 inches | ## Product Details - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Laptop, Monitor, Video Device - **Connector Type:** DVI/HDMI - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 8 x 1.6 x 0.4 inches - **Specific Uses For Product:** personal ## Images ![StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614B1Nx3GsL.jpg) ![StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617AkrxKifL.jpg) ![StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fmQX54mQL.jpg) ![StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+XaOIZhCL.jpg) ![StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81KXn4aeasL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Customer Package Type, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality adapter built and works well *by J***K on April 6, 2013* Previously I bought some lower cost adapters from chinese sellers (and to be fair, I think this StarTech adapter is also made in China) that were a single block connector with DVI on one side and HDMI on the other.

The computer, however, did have an HDMI port in the back that wasn't being used.

I highly recommend this product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked and good build quality *by A***N on December 10, 2019* The performance of a short cable like this is probably not a big deal but this did work. The thing I find with some of these cables is that the fit is really tight or lose. The quality of this was good and it was easy to plug and unplug it the many times I did. I used it to troubleshoot a video issue I had as this allowed me to bypass a DVI switch I had in my amplifier. I installed and removed it many times. ## Frequently Bought Together - StarTech.com HDMI Male to DVI Female Adapter - 8in - 1080p DVI-D Gender Changer Cable (HDDVIMF8IN) - BENFEI USB C to DVI Adapter, Type-C to DVI Adapter [Thunderbolt 3/4 Compatible] with iPhone 15 Pro/Max, MacBook Pro/Air 2023, iPad Pro, iMac, S23, XPS 17, Surface Book 3 and More - Grey - CableCreation HDMI Male to DVI Female 0.5ft [2 Pack], Bi-Directional HDMI Male to DVI-I (24+5) Female Adapter, for PC, TV, TV Box, PS5, Blue-ray, Xbox,Switch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1866621-startech-com-hdmi-male-to-dvi-female-adapter-8in-1080p](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1866621-startech-com-hdmi-male-to-dvi-female-adapter-8in-1080p) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
