The product description neglects to tell you that the DVI-I is connected to Monitor 1 and the VGA is connected to Monitor 2.
The splitter works well with NVIDIA boards using the DMS-59 connector.
Pros: Consistent Performance
Cons: Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!
Response from cablestogo.comBy October 5, 2017
Customer service reached out as "Sorry that it was not more clear which video output was #1 and #2. We will update the web to make that more clear. You should be able to adjust the screen assignment in Display Properties to make the VGA monitor 1 and the DVI monitor 2. Please let us know what operating system that you have if you are not familiar with where display properties is located." Customer then responded "I have custom built cables in the works. Your cable was purchased to test and possibly buy some time before I have to get custom cables built. I can continue system debug with the CablesToGo adapter. My review was just to fill in a minor omission in your product description. I require VGA on monitor 1 (Primary) and DVI on monitor 2. The application is inside an HD video streaming media encoder. The VGA is a server maintenance port (Windows primary screen). The DVI, monitor 2, is a video monitor on the front of the 2U chassis. System software routes information to the two devices...Thank you for your contact. It shows good customer service. I will use CablesToGo again."

Used the 9in One LFH-59 (DMS-59) Male to One DVI-I™ Female and One HD15 VGA Female Cable Setup: Dell 6410/docking station uses VGA/DVI to drive dual monitors. Dell 1907FP monitors have a VGA and DVI port. I wanted to have dual monitors for my personal Dell 745. this cable allows this by spliting the video into VGA and DVI this allowing me to use the other VGA and DIV ports on the Dell 1907FP monitors. All I have to do is now put the monitor 'slect' put to toggle between computers and skoll lock twice to actvite the kvm switch. Now I have the used of 4 monitors for the cost of two thanks to Cables to Go!
