Cant find out where but just do some research and you might be able to find it at one of your retailers not sure what you use.

Having the power supply separate is a good idea.
As power supply's do fail after some time,
And being outside the monitor can be fixed easy.
I hate pulling monitors apart to fix dead power supply's.
I have done about 8 or 10 monitors so far that had bad power supply's.
And all are still working so far.

Most detachable power cable monitors use these cords

OH you miss-reed me again.
I am an electronics hardware repair person,
I fix Fisher & Paykel motor controller boards & help people with there problems on http://www.fixya.com/ My user name is Greg Stephen.
I don't fix bad power cables i through them away and use new one's.
Some monitors that have the switch mode power supply(adapter)outside
not internal. All monitors & computers have the IEC power cable but some plug into a separate adapter to make 12 Volts or 19 volts.
Some Laptop chargers have a three leaf clover plug for there power adapter and cable.
External power supply's are called adapters or plug packs
that reduce 100/240 AC to a lower useable DC Voltage.

Well thats what I mean without knowing the volts it'll be a lot harder and more expensive to know which to replace. Cables like the one I posted are pretty much dirt cheap and everyone knows what exactly it is.

Plug packs or adapters have there input & output voltages on the out side on a sticker, easy to check the DC output voltage with multimeter

I know that I'm just saying the cable I posted is easier to find and inexpensive.

I like LG has all three.
In Australia we can't get any of them for that price,
If i could get it for that price here i would buy it,
That is so cheap.


Generally Asus has a pretty good selection as well! HDMI, DisplayPort, Dual-link DVI-D on my monitor at least (Asus VG248QE).
