Microsoft EJP-00001 Surface Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter

The Microsoft EJP-00001 is a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter designed specifically for Surface devices. It performs a digital-to-analog signal conversion, taking the Mini DisplayPort output from your Surface and delivering a standard VGA signal to external monitors, projectors, and displays. There are no drivers to install — Windows recognizes the adapter natively and extends or mirrors your display automatically. The adapter supports resolutions up to 1920x1200 at 60Hz, which covers the resolution ceiling of virtually all VGA-connected displays still in service. As an analog output, it does not carry audio, and it is limited to single-display output with no daisy-chain capability.

This adapter is built for professionals and students who regularly present in environments where VGA is still the available connection — conference rooms, lecture halls, and older classrooms. Its compact size (17.78 cm long) makes it easy to keep in a laptop bag alongside your Surface. The primary use case is straightforward display mirroring or extension for presentations, and it handles that task without fuss. However, it is worth noting that this adapter only serves Surface models with Mini DisplayPort — the Surface Pro 7 and later, Surface Laptop 3 and later, and Surface Go models use USB-C for video output and require a different adapter entirely. Before purchasing, confirm your specific Surface model has a Mini DisplayPort.
