The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,300, a 2m black lead with an HDMI plug on one end and a DVI plug on the other. It arrives brand new and sealed. The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable is rated for 2K by UGREEN and carries a clean 1080p picture at 60Hz, up to 1920 by 1200 pixels. Gold-plated connectors and double shielding keep the signal steady. Collect it from our store at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Built for offices, students and gamers across Kenya, the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable solves a common mismatch. Many offices in Upper Hill and Industrial Area still run solid DVI monitors bought years ago, while new laptops, mini PCs and consoles ship with HDMI only. Instead of replacing a working screen, accountants, developers and front-desk staff plug this cable in and carry on. University students at Kenyatta and JKUAT use it to turn a second-hand DVI monitor into a study screen. Because it works in both directions, it also links an older DVI graphics card to a newer HDMI monitor or projector.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded cables that start flickering within weeks, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable from a brand known for shielded, properly built leads. Because both HDMI and DVI are digital, no converter chip sits in the middle, so there is nothing to power and nothing to slow the picture down. Customers across Nairobi tell us the 2m length reaches comfortably from a desk tower to a wall-mounted screen. Walk in to test the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable on a monitor before paying, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it reaches you.
Common Questions About the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable
How much is the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable 2m in Kenya?
The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable 2m costs KSh 1,300 brand new at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. That price covers the 2m black cable, a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. Nairobi orders usually arrive the same day. If your screen has a VGA port instead, the UGREEN MM105 HDMI to VGA Converter sells at the same KSh 1,300, so the choice comes down to the port on your monitor.
Does the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable carry sound?
No, the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable carries picture only, because the DVI standard has no audio channel. Your laptop or console will play sound through its own speakers, a headphone jack or Bluetooth instead. Most office monitors with DVI inputs have no speakers anyway, so few buyers notice the difference. If you want sound from a TV, use a plain HDMI to HDMI cable where the screen allows it. For spreadsheets, coding and presentations, picture alone is all the setup needs.
Can the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable work in both directions?
Yes, the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable works both ways without any setting to change. Plug the HDMI end into a laptop and the DVI end into a monitor, or plug the DVI end into an older desktop graphics card and the HDMI end into a newer monitor, TV or projector. The signal is digital on both sides, so the picture stays sharp either way. That makes it a handy spare for IT staff who support a mix of old and new machines in one office.
Should I buy the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable or an HDMI to VGA converter?
Buy the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable when your monitor has a white DVI port, and an HDMI to VGA converter when it only has the blue VGA port. DVI is digital, so the HD106 passes the image straight through with no chip and no power needed. VGA is analogue, so a converter such as the UGREEN MM105 HDMI to VGA Converter must translate the signal, and small text can look slightly softer. Both cost KSh 1,300 at Mascom International, so check your screen's ports first.
Will the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable cope with power cuts and dusty Kenyan offices?
The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable is a passive lead with no electronics inside, so there is no chip for a KPLC power cut or surge to damage. When power returns, the picture comes back as soon as your computer and monitor restart. Gold-plated contacts resist the corrosion that coastal humidity in Mombasa causes on cheaper plugs. In dusty rooms, wipe the plugs before connecting them. The screws on the DVI end hold firm when desks get bumped or the cable gets tugged.
What resolution does the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable support?
The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable carries Full HD 1080p at 60Hz and up to 1920 by 1200 pixels, which covers most DVI office monitors. UGREEN rates it for 2K. On a typical 22-inch or 24-inch monitor, that means crisp spreadsheets, clear code and smooth video playback. Your final resolution also depends on the monitor and the computer's graphics output, so set the display to the screen's native resolution in Windows or macOS settings after connecting.
Who should buy the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable, and who should skip it?
The UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable suits anyone with a working DVI monitor and an HDMI laptop, mini PC or console: office managers, accountants, students and home gamers on a budget. Skip it if your screen only has a blue VGA port; the UGREEN MM105 HDMI to VGA Converter fits that setup. Skip it too if you need sound through the monitor or a high refresh rate for competitive gaming, where a DisplayPort cable and a modern monitor suit you better.
Will the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable work with my HP or Lenovo laptop?
Yes, the UGREEN HD106 HDMI to DVI Cable works with any laptop that has a full-size HDMI port, including most HP EliteBook, Lenovo ThinkPad and Dell Latitude models. No driver or app is needed, and Windows detects the monitor within seconds. Press the Windows key and P together to choose duplicate or extend mode. Laptops with USB-C only need a USB-C to HDMI adapter first. Customers in Westlands often use this cable to add a second screen for KRA returns and eCitizen work.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- HDMI male to DVI-D 24+1 male connectors — one cable links an HDMI computer or console straight to a DVI monitor.
- Rated for 2K by UGREEN — carries up to 1920 by 1200 pixels, slightly taller than a standard Full HD widescreen picture.
- 1080p at 60Hz — the screen redraws sixty times each second, so scrolling, video and mouse movement look smooth.
- Bidirectional signal — runs HDMI to DVI or DVI to HDMI, with no switch, setting or adapter to change.
- Passive digital design — no converter chip and no power supply, so there is no delay and nothing extra to plug in.
- Plug-and-play setup — no software, driver disc or app; the computer detects the monitor as soon as both ends connect.
Compatibility
- Laptops and desktops — fits any full-size HDMI port on Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS machines without extra drivers.
- Monitors and projectors — connects to DVI-D inputs, the white port with rows of pins found on many office screens.
- Consoles and media players — links PlayStation, Xbox, Blu-ray players and Android TV boxes to a DVI monitor for picture.
- Older graphics cards — pairs a desktop card with a DVI output to a newer HDMI monitor or television in reverse.
- Picture only — DVI carries no audio, so sound plays through laptop speakers, headphones or a Bluetooth speaker instead.
- USB-C laptops — work with the cable once a USB-C to HDMI adapter is added, sold separately at Mascom International.
Build
- Gold-plated connectors — resist corrosion and keep good contact after many plug-ins, useful in humid coastal towns like Mombasa.
- Double shielding with aluminium foil and braid — blocks interference from nearby power cables, Wi-Fi routers and phones on the desk.
- 30AWG conductors — the wire gauge UGREEN uses to carry a clean 1080p signal along the full 2m length.
- 7.3mm outer diameter with moulded strain relief — a thick jacket and reinforced necks resist kinks where the cable meets each plug.
- Finger-tightened screws on the DVI end — lock the plug firmly to the monitor so a bumped desk does not cut the picture.
Everyday Use and Setup
- Second-screen setups — add a DVI monitor beside a laptop and extend Windows across both screens for spreadsheets and email.
- Classroom and boardroom projectors — connect an HDMI laptop to an older DVI projector for lectures, pitches and training sessions.
- Display mode shortcut — press the Windows key and P together to switch between duplicate, extend or second-screen-only views.
- Native resolution tip — set the computer to the monitor's native resolution after connecting so text looks sharp, not stretched.
- Cable care — loop the spare length loosely rather than folding it tightly, which protects the wires inside over time.
Inclusions
- 2m cable length — reaches from a desk tower or laptop stand to a monitor arm or a nearby wall-mounted screen.
- Black finish — blends with most monitors, desks and cable trays in home and office setups.
- Factory-sealed UGREEN retail packaging — the cable arrives untouched, and you can check the seal before paying.
- No extra parts needed — the passive design means no power brick, batteries or separate adapters for HDMI and DVI ports.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
