Hi all,

I have Apple MBP mid-2015 and I'd like to buy a single converter, that can cater the following connections:
- VGA
- DVI
- LAN (Gigabit preferable)
Note: I don't need HDMI, as the laptop natively accepts HDMI

So far I found this 3In1 Mini Display Port DP Thunderbolt to DVI VGA HDMI Adapter Cable For MacBooK on eBay; unfortunately, it accepts USB-C and not Thunderbolt/Mini Displayport input; thus I don't think this is the perfect fit.

Does anyone know whether such device is available?

Ps: I've googled them, but obviously my search skill need to be sharpened by fellow OZB…

    All I can suggest are these but they won't cater for your craving for LAN. It would be easier to get a separate USB to LAN adapter.

    Or you could grab one of these but it won't do DVI.

      Thanks, I might give the last link a try, no DVI, but at least there is still a VGA :)

        At least MSY is local so it's pretty easy to get replacements/actually purchase them.

    This in the USA gets close, if you could use HDMI instead of vga/dvi, or with an adapter.

      Thanks, this close to what I want; unfortunately, no VGA/DVI port

        Maybe combined with a cheap HDMI to DVI adapter? I have had mixed success with daisy chaining adapters, so you would need to try it and see.

        vga and dvi is dead, just invest into a new monitor

          I know, but it is handy to have one, especially dealing with clients who still have these ports in their meeting rooms

          @televisi: Hey coz i'm also looking for a thunderbolt to hdmi or dvi or vga. Cheapest option would be great.
