The original Apple Cinema Display and the Apple Studio Display-which use the digital video interface (DVI) connector-were designed to work with the graphics card in the Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) computer. The graphics card in later Power Mac G4 computers utilizes an Apple Display Connector (ADC) video card. Refer to technical document 58692: "Power Mac G4: Display Compatibility" for images and additional information on the video connectors.

2. This adapter is designed only to allow DVI based displays to be connected to an ADC video card. This adapter does not allow you to connect ADC displays to a video card with a DVI port.
