Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this cable supports?
This cable supports up to 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz, provided both your source device and display support these specifications and, for 8K@60Hz, that the display supports DSC.
Does this cable support HDR?
Yes, the cable is compatible with HDR content, which enhances contrast and color for a more vibrant visual experience.
What is Multi-Stream Transport (MST)?
MST allows you to connect multiple independent displays to a single Displayport output on your source device, consolidating your multi-monitor setup with a single cable.
Why is the cable limited to 3 meters?
The 3-meter limit is based on VESA recommendations to ensure signal integrity and maintain the cable's ability to fully support its high specifications, especially for higher resolutions and refresh rates.
Will 8K@60Hz work on my display if it doesn't support DSC?
If your display does not support Display Stream Compression (DSC), the 8K resolution may be limited to a refresh rate of 30Hz.
Are the connectors gold-plated?
Yes, the connectors are gold-flashed to provide better conductivity and resistance to corrosion, ensuring a more reliable connection.
Do the connectors lock in place?
Yes, the Displayport connectors feature locking clips to secure the cable in place and prevent accidental disconnections.
Troubleshooting
No video signal or flickering display
Ensure the cable is securely connected at both ends. Check that the Displayport output on the source and the input on the display are functioning correctly. Try a different Displayport cable or port to isolate the issue. Verify that your graphics card and display support the resolution and refresh rate being used.
Lower resolution or refresh rate than expected (e.g., 4K@60Hz instead of 4K@120Hz)
Confirm that both your source device (graphics card, PC) and your display support the desired resolution and refresh rate. Check if your display supports DSC; if not, 8K@60Hz may be limited to 30Hz. Update graphics drivers on your source device. Ensure the cable's maximum length of 3 meters is not exceeded.
Multi-monitor setup not working or displaying incorrectly
Verify that your graphics card and operating system support MST. Ensure that all individual monitors and the connections to them are functional. Try connecting monitors one at a time to identify a potentially faulty connection or display.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Supports high resolutions like 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz for future-proofing and premium visuals.
- HDR support enhances image quality with better contrast and color.
- MST capability is excellent for productivity and multi-monitor setups.
- Gold-plated and locking connectors ensure a secure and stable connection.
- Adheres to VESA recommendations for cable length, maintaining signal quality.
Cons
- 8K@60Hz performance may be limited to 30Hz on displays without DSC.
- Limited to 3 meters, which might be too short for some setups.
- Availability of 8K sources and displays is still limited.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Connect the Displayport Male connector to the Displayport output on your source device (e.g., graphics card, laptop) and the other Displayport Male connector to the input on your display (e.g., monitor, projector). Ensure the locking clips on the connectors engage securely. For multi-monitor setups using MST, ensure your graphics card and operating system support MST.
Compatibility: This cable is compatible with any devices featuring Displayport v1.4 or earlier ports. It supports resolutions up to 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz, provided both the source and display devices support these standards. Note that achieving the highest resolutions and refresh rates may depend on whether your display supports Display Stream Compression (DSC).
Care: Keep connectors clean by gently wiping with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid exposing the cable to extreme temperatures, moisture, or excessive bending. Store the cable loosely coiled when not in use to prevent damage to the internal wiring.
