DVI-D single-link connector

DVI-D single-link uses a digital-only contact layout distinct from dual-link and DVI-I.

Also called DVI-D single single link DVI 18+1 DVI

The gap in the contact grid matters.

Look for

Inspect the contact pattern rather than the outer housing alone. The schematic is not a wiring diagram and deliberately has no pin numbers.

Before you connect or replace

DVI-D and DVI-I differ in signals

DVI-D is a digital-only DVI connector type; DVI-I can include analog contacts. A passive mechanical transition cannot invent an analog video signal that a source does not output.

Three checks and exact source trail ↗

Editorial decision guidance only. A connector identity or nominal pitch does not establish approved mating, safe wiring or a supported device combination.

Read the view

Read the single-link grid and blade together

The blade is shown at the right in this illustration. This is not a rear view or a numbered pin map.

What it cannot establish: The outside DVI shell alone does not identify the variant.

Enlargement changes display size only. It does not reveal measured geometry, a pin assignment or an approved mating combination.

The useful distinction

Recognize it. Then verify it.

DVI-D single-link uses a digital-only contact layout distinct from dual-link and DVI-I. [C013A]

Dell distinguishes 18 grid contacts in single-link DVI cables from 24 in dual-link cables. The flat blade is a separate visual feature and is not included in this numbered-grid count. [C013B]

Molex distinguishes digital single-link, digital dual-link and analog cable families and states that plug contacts may be partially loaded according to the signal set. [C013C]

Recorded variant and source limits
  • The flat digital blade is not an invented numbered signal 25. Different vendor counts can include or exclude it.
  • No housing dimensions, tolerances, insertion depth, PCB layout or fabrication approval is established.
  • Full receptacle contact presence is not evidence that a source, cable or receiver operates both links.
  • Do not apply voltage or modify connector pins based on a reference table. Exact device wiring and operating requirements remain separate.
  • DVI 1.0 digital-only connector (Table 5-1) used for single-link operation: Receptacle mating face per DVI 1.0 Figure 5-1/5-3; pin 1 upper left.

  • Hatteland Technology HA-SDM-2M single-link DVI-D male-to-male cable (device-specific): Male plug; manufacturer drawing labels pin 1, pin 9 and pin 17 on the plug face.

Before you connect

What to check

  1. Confirm single-link versus dual-link in both device and cable documentation.
  2. Do not infer analog VGA output from a DVI-D label.
  3. Verify the intended display timing rather than assuming a universal resolution ceiling.

View and evidence limits

Receptacle mating face per DVI 1.0 Figure 5-1/5-3; pin 1 upper left.

  • P013 DVI-D single-link — **Agree** on all 24 contacts per DVI 1.0 Table 5-1, and on the AutomationDirect Atlas input (second-link pins 4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 21 and pin 8 not connected) — DVI 1.0 has no separate single-link contact table. A marks the second-link positions unverified for single-link; B lists them with their spec signals and a note that they're inactive in single-link use. **Publish them as "second-link contacts, unused on single-link".** Both passes noted that the AutomationDirect manual swaps the DDC clock and data descriptions on pins 6 and 7.
  • DVI 1.0 defines one digital-only connector for single- and dual-link use; it does not define a separate single-link contact set. Link #1 positions are therefore recorded as unverified rather than as absent or not connected.
  • DVI 1.0 assigns pins 4, 5, 12, 13, 20 and 21 to link #1 and requires only link #0 for single-link systems, but does not say whether single-link connectors or cables omit, leave open or wire these contacts. Named devices differ: the ATLAS input marks them N.C.; the HA-SDM-2M table simply omits them.
  • The product title says 18+1 pins, but the table lists 17 contacts (pin 8 and the second-link positions are not listed). The 18th contact was not identified.

AutomationDirect Atlas industrial monitor DVI-D video input (device-specific, single-link wiring)

Device-specific wiring. Check your device’s manual before connecting or applying power.

View and evidence limits

Manual's face drawing (p. A-2) shows rows 1-8, 9-16, 17-24 left to right with the cross-shaped analog area on the right; it is not labelled plug or receptacle. Use pin numbers, not drawn positions.

  • P013 DVI-D single-link — **Agree** on all 24 contacts per DVI 1.0 Table 5-1, and on the AutomationDirect Atlas input (second-link pins 4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 21 and pin 8 not connected) — DVI 1.0 has no separate single-link contact table. A marks the second-link positions unverified for single-link; B lists them with their spec signals and a note that they're inactive in single-link use. **Publish them as "second-link contacts, unused on single-link".** Both passes noted that the AutomationDirect manual swaps the DDC clock and data descriptions on pins 6 and 7.
  • Device-specific. Positions 4, 5, 12, 13, 20 and 21 (second link) and 8 are N.C. on this monitor.
  • No connector-maker or cable-maker drawing was found that shows single-link DVI-D plugs omitting contacts 4, 5, 12, 13, 20 and 21. DVI 1.0 does not define a reduced-contact single-link plug. A Molex DVI drawing request timed out.
  • On p. A-2 the description for pin 6 (DDC Clock) reads 'The Data Line for the DDC Interface' and for pin 7 (DDC Data) reads 'The Clock Line...'. Signal names follow DDWG Table 5-1, and the descriptions are treated as a transposition.

DVI count, assignment and implementation

Use the DVI reference guides to distinguish grid positions from the blade/analog group and to keep full standard assignments separate from exact device wiring. Read the source view before applying a number; never remove contacts to force a fit.

Common questions

Questions this record can help resolve

How should I count DVI contacts: grid, blade or analog group?Read DVI-D and DVI-I single-/dual-link counts without mixing a visible contact pattern with a numbered assignment table.Does a full DVI contact grid prove dual-link support?Use a documented monitor and dock example to distinguish a connector’s physical positions from implemented digital links.DVI to VGA: when is a passive adapter not enough?Separate access to a documented analog signal from conversion of a digital-only signal.Which DVI pinout view am I looking at?Keep receptacle-front orientation, digital-only and integrated assignments, and device-specific labels separate.
