DisplayPort adapters come in three types:
•
Adapter—Uses DisplayPort signals to transmit audio and video information
between variants of the same connection type (for example, Mini DisplayPort to
standard DisplayPort).
•
Active dongle—Allows connection from a DisplayPort connection to a non-
DisplayPort display using DisplayPort signals.
•
Passive dongle—Allows connection from a DisplayPort connection to a non-
DisplayPort display using non-DisplayPort signals.
Adapters/dongles that are not provided with your graphics cards can be purchased
from AMD's Web site or through your local AMD resellers.
A list of compatible adapters/dongles for your graphics card can be found at

3.3 Connecting Displays
The following table lists sample options for attaching displays to your graphics card.
You can also use other types of adapters/dongles as long as they are compatible with
your graphics card and display.
For best graphics performance and quality, always use native connections, when
available.
