The monitor uses/has a VGA input, which is analog.  The PS4 has a HDMI output, which is digital.  That is why the "cable" does not work.  Keep in mind that VGA does not support audio while HDMI does, so that needs to be resolved, also.

An active adapter should work for both.  This example has a power connection (micro USB) plus the audio jack for audio output.
