|---|---|
| Catalog identity | DVI-D Dual-Link Display Cable |
| Generation / family | Digital video cable, dual-link DVI |
| Architecture / ratings | 24+1-pin dual-link DVI-D; supports higher pixel clock than single-link with compatible source/display. |

| Variants / field identification | Dual-link passive cable does not convert DisplayPort/HDMI protocol; active adapter may be required. |
| Evidence to collect | Photograph the nameplate and PCB labels; record test system, firmware, installed accessories, condition, and manual/datasheet revision used to verify specifications. |
Compatibility, care & service
- Check electrical signaling, pinout, voltage, current, connector, mounting and supported firmware before installation; do not rely on matching shapes alone.
- Inspect physical condition and manufacturer warnings; mains PSUs, CRTs, batteries and spinning media may retain hazardous energy or require specialist service.
- For vintage equipment, use the correct bus generation, BIOS, driver, media type, cable orientation and resource configuration documented for the machine.
- Record measured results separately from the manufacturer's published limits and state the setup and measurement conditions.
Model-specific notes
