Pros & Cons
Pros
This is the best cable to have if you are trying to plug your old monitors into a newer desktop. Dropped in my ibm laptop - and had instantly functioning dual monitors on flat screens.
The displayport connector is the latching type. The dvi thumb-screws on the dvi end are big enough that you don't need a screwdriver. Very sharp image and simple connectivity.
Cable does exactly what it advertises and is recommended. It works perfectly and gets the job done! But the cable works exactly as advertised, and any question i had about tripp lite customer service has been answered.
Great value and product. Great product for a wonderful price. They make very high quality products that i have been depending on for the last 30+ years.
Cons
Hdmi to * to hdmi converter was more money. Had to connecto with active * tohdmi converter. Plugged this in and switched over to 144hz. Now my monitor gives me an error saying, incorrect cable.

Price
I've paid more for dvi cables than $20.
Then again, it's still $20 for a basic digital cable that sends a signal that's been around for over a decade.
Competitiveness
This price is much better than found on other sites.
It's not even uncommon, as it's less competitive of a market as hdmi and even displayport.
I did not even know that tripp lite made cables.
I deal with a number of multi monitor setups and you always get an odd one out.

I had previously purchased a passive displayport to dvi cable and my old monitor would not recognize the input

I work in it and routinely have desktop computers and monitors that do not have one connector in common

It’s an active conversion cable it means that even if your dvi doesn’t support digital signal it’ll still work with this cable
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
That’s why it’s slightly more expensive

No noticeable difference than any other digital connection

What i didnt realize when i ordered this this is a oneway only cable
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
You have to plug the displayport connector into the source of the video and then you must plug the dvid part into the monitor
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It does not work going the other direction and if you attempt you may get frustrated
