Product Information
Full details
The Lindy DisplayPort 1.4 Left Angled Adapter is designed for users needing to connect DisplayPort cables in tight spaces or behind monitors with recessed ports. Its primary benefit is enabling a neat, 90-degree connection from the left side, preventing cable strain and improving installation aesthetics. A potential caveat is its specific left-angled orientation, which may not suit all routing needs. This compact adapter supports DisplayPort 1.4 standards, including resolutions up to 8K@60Hz, while maintaining backward compatibility.

Does this adapter require any software or drivers?
No, the Lindy DisplayPort 1.4 Left Angled Adapter is a Plug and Play device and does not require any additional software or drivers to function.
What does 'left angled' mean for the connection?
The 'left angled' designation means the adapter directs the DisplayPort cable to exit the connection at a 90-degree angle towards the left side of the connected port.
Can this adapter be used for audio transmission?
Yes, DisplayPort connectors carry both video and audio signals. This adapter will pass through audio signals along with the video.

Troubleshooting
No video signal or flickering display.
Ensure the adapter is securely connected to both the cable and the port. Verify that the DisplayPort cable itself is functioning correctly by testing it without the adapter. Confirm that your source device and display are set to a supported resolution and refresh rate.
Lower resolution than expected is displayed.
Check the DisplayPort version supported by your source device and display. Ensure the connected DisplayPort cable also supports the desired resolution and version. For 8K resolutions, confirm that the '4:2:0' chroma subsampling is acceptable for your use case, as higher subsampling formats may not be supported by this adapter.
Adapter is physically loose.
While this adapter is designed for snug connections, ensure the connected cable is properly seated. If the issue persists, the cable's connector or the adapter's port might be slightly out of specification. Ensure no excessive force is applied.
