Product Information
Full details
The Lindy 15m Fibre Optic Hybrid DP 2.0 UHBR10 Cable is designed for professionals needing to extend DisplayPort signals over long distances without signal degradation. Its key benefit is enabling uncompressed 8K content delivery at high refresh rates, a feat not possible with passive cables. A potential caveat is its specific DP 2.0 UHBR10 requirement on both source and display devices for full functionality.

FAQs
What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this cable supports?
This cable supports DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR10 bandwidth, enabling resolutions up to 4K@144Hz and 7680x4320@60Hz. It also supports future resolutions up to 10240x4320@60Hz.
Does this cable require specific ports on my devices?
Yes, to achieve the full 40Gbps bandwidth and support for DP 2.0 resolutions and refresh rates, both the source device (e.g., computer) and the display device (e.g., monitor) must have DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR10 compatible ports.
Can I use this cable with devices that only have DisplayPort 1.4?
Yes, the cable is backward compatible. However, it will operate at the maximum standard supported by both the source and display, which would be DP 1.4 in this case, limiting bandwidth and resolution/refresh rate capabilities.
What does 'UHBR10' mean?
UHBR10 stands for Ultra High Bit Rate 10, indicating a data transmission rate of 10Gbps per lane. For DisplayPort 2.0, this allows for a total bandwidth of 40Gbps across its four lanes.
Is the cable flexible enough for tight installations?
Yes, the hybrid design incorporates fibre optic cable, making it more flexible than traditional copper cables of similar bandwidth capabilities. It has a minimum bend radius of 5 cm.
What is the warranty period for this cable?
This Lindy cable comes with a 2-Year Warranty.
How does the hybrid design benefit performance?
The hybrid design combines the long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission capabilities of fibre optics with the high EMI/RFI resistance and robustness of copper, ensuring a stable and clear signal over extended lengths in demanding environments.
Troubleshooting
No video signal or flickering image
Ensure both source and display devices support DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR10. Verify connections are secure. Try the cable with different DP 2.0 compatible devices to isolate the issue. Check for firmware updates on source and display devices.
Lower resolution or refresh rate than expected
Confirm that both connected devices support the desired resolution and refresh rate, and are configured correctly in the display settings. Ensure the cable is not being used with devices limited to older DP standards.
DisplayPort connector won't latch
The connectors are not lockable. Ensure they are fully inserted into the ports. If a port is too tight, do not force the connection; check the port for obstructions.
Poor signal quality with high resolutions
Although designed for long distances, ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending or kinks, which can affect signal integrity. Check for sources of strong electromagnetic interference near the cable.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Enables uncompressed 8K signal transmission over 15 meters.
- Supports advanced DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR10 standards for high bandwidth (40Gbps).
- Hybrid design provides excellent EMI/RFI resistance.
- Supports high refresh rates for smoother visuals, ideal for gaming and professional applications.
- Includes HDR support for superior color and contrast.
Cons
- Requires compatible DP 2.0 UHBR10 ports on both source and display devices.
- May be more costly than standard passive DisplayPort cables.
- Potential for reduced functionality if connected to older DP versions.
- Fibre optic components require careful handling during installation.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Connect the DisplayPort male connector at one end to the source device (e.g., graphics card, laptop) and the other DisplayPort male connector to the display device (e.g., monitor, projector). Ensure both devices have DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR10 support for maximum performance. The cable's straight connector form factor is suitable for most standard ports.
Compatibility: This cable is backward compatible with earlier DisplayPort versions (e.g., 1.4, 1.2), but will operate at the lower standard supported by both the source and display. For resolutions above 4K@60Hz or 8K@60Hz, DP 2.0 UHBR10 support is essential on both ends.
Care: Handle the connectors and cable with care to avoid damage. Keep the cable away from excessive heat, moisture, and physical stress. Clean the connectors gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if necessary. Ensure the minimum bend radius of 5 cm is maintained to prevent internal damage.
