Yep. You need a DVI connector on the adapter and on the panel. There are quite a few video cards and panels that come with both analog and digital DVI connectors these days, some quite reasonably priced. I should mention that while DVI seems to be the prevalent connection type I think there are others out there. Be sure to check on compatibility between adapter and panel before you buy. I think you're safe if they both have DVI support. Gary
