Hi, mariateresa50, that monitor has a DVI connector on it ( single link, not dual link) and your M1 Mac has either hdmi or Thunderbolt 3/usb-4 ( usb-c) so you’d need a Thunderbolt 3( usb-c) to DVI adapter or hdmi to DVI adapter…

here’s an example of the usb-c to dvi : https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1427596-REG/plugable_usbc_dvi_usb_type_c_to_dvi.html

and for hdmi:

i’m sure you can find them in longer lengths if needed…eg Amazon ???

hope this helps you
