A customized active dongle plus cable arrangement is used to show combined and time synchronized data from different medical devices in realtime or from a specified point in time on a connected medical grade standard display monitor. The active cable arrangement of the invention is capable of communicating with a plurality of legacy and third-party medical devices via their designed physical and proprietary semantic protocols. Using the active cable arrangement, the user has the sensation of “plug and play”, by simply connecting the medical device to the monitor USB port (or to the USB hub extending the monitor USB port). The active cable arrangement of the invention transforms the proprietary protocol of the medical device, providing the monitor with standardized output for data, waveforms, alarms, setting, notifications, values and other useful information. The standard medical grade display monitor will support the display of such information according to the software API and specifications of the normalized JSON protocol.
