UGREEN VGA to HDMI Adapter

UGREEN VGA to HDMI Adapter

Product Description

The UGREEN CM513 (part no. 50945) is a VGA to HDMI adapter that takes the analogue VGA output of an older desktop, laptop or DVR and converts it to a digital HDMI signal at up to 1080p@60Hz. Because VGA carries no sound, it has a 3.5 mm audio input that merges the computer's headphone output into the HDMI stream, and a USB-C port supplies the power the conversion chip needs. The right pick for connecting a legacy office PC or CCTV DVR to a flat-screen TV or new monitor that has no VGA socket.

A laptop with HDMI, DisplayPort or USB-C will not plug straight into a monitor or projector that only has VGA or HDMI. The UGREEN CM513 VGA to HDMI adapter bridges the two ports so you can use the screen you already have. It is made for people whose laptop and display do not share the same video port.

Key Features and Benefits

• Practical bridge between ports: Keeps older projectors and monitors useful when the laptop has moved on.
• VGA in, HDMI out: fixes the common case of an old PC and a new display that cannot talk to each other.
• Full HD 1080p@60Hz: sharp text and smooth video on a modern TV or monitor.
• Audio merged in: a 3.5 mm input adds sound to the HDMI signal, so the TV's speakers work.
• Powered over USB-C: an active converter chip, fed from a 5V USB port or charger.
• Short 15 cm lead: hangs neatly behind the desk without strain on the VGA port.

Made for Life in Nairobi and Across Kenya

Connect a new laptop to the older VGA projector in a boardroom, school hall or church, or plug a laptop into a monitor that only accepts one type of input.

Buying and Setup Tips

• Check the direction: a converter goes from the source port to the display port, and it does not work in reverse in most cases.
• Confirm which ports your laptop and display have before buying.
• If sound is needed, check whether the converter carries audio, and plan a separate audio route if it does not.
• This works in one direction only: VGA source to HDMI display.
• To plug an HDMI laptop into a VGA projector you need an HDMI to VGA adapter instead.
• The USB-C power lead must be connected or the adapter will not light up the display.

Who It's Perfect For

• Offices and schools with older projectors
• Laptop users meeting a different port at every venue
• Technicians and IT support
• Anyone reusing an older monitor

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it carry sound?
If audio is not listed for this model, plan a separate audio connection.

Can I use it in reverse?
Most converters work in one direction only. Match the connector on your source device to the input side of the converter.

Can I connect a CCTV DVR with VGA to an HDMI TV?
Yes. Plug the DVR's VGA output into the adapter, run an HDMI cable to the TV and connect USB power. The TV shows the DVR at up to 1080p.

How do I get sound?
Run a 3.5 mm cable from the computer's headphone or line-out socket into the adapter's audio input. The sound is combined with the video on the HDMI output.

Does it work the other way, HDMI laptop to VGA monitor?
No. The CM513 only converts VGA to HDMI. For HDMI to VGA, look at the UGREEN MM103, MM105 or CM611.
