![]() I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from NewerTech Mini DisplayPort & Thunderbolt to HDMI Video Adapter. ![]() So I bought this m-DP to HDMI adapter and an HDMIHDMI cable, and now my Dell monitor is working great on the Mac Pro. Note that you cant reach 4K 30Hz with a normal setup with 2012 minis Keep in mind that 1600p monitors are almost all the old style 30' screens and the 1440p monitors are the old style 27' screens. (note that this monitor does work perfectly fine with a newer MacBook Pro that I have - but my MacBook Pro does not need a second monitor!).īut the Dell monitor also has an HDMI port. This put me in the embarrassing position where I would have had to go back to my manager and say "That nice new monitor that *I* told you to buy? It won't work with my Mac!". ![]() When I hooked them up, the Mac Pro was certain it was talking to the Dell Monitor (and it even knew exactly what model of monitor it was talking to), but the monitor insisted that there was no video signal coming from the Mac Pro. It turns out that the modern monitor supports DP-1.2, and apparently the video card on this old Mac Pro supports older versions of Display Port. I did not notice that Dell only talks about hooking the monitor up to a modern Windows machine. This is also an approved adapter for TESmarts 4k 4-1 KVM switch and. So I assumed this combination would be no trouble. This adapter produces a perfect image at 2560 x 1440 at 60 Hz from a late 2012 Mac mini. My Mac Pro has two mini-DisplayPort connections on the video card, and the Dell monitor comes with a mini-DisplayPort to full-sized DisplayPort cable. ![]() Verified Buyer Reviewer: Nick58Name Location: Albany, NY Age: 55-65 Experience Level: IT Professional Owned Product: less than a month Rating: 5/5 Very useful for a modern Dell monitor!
