Product Information

Full details

The Lindy 3m Slim DisplayPort 1.4 Cable is designed for users needing a flexible, high-performance video connection in space-constrained environments. Its key benefit is delivering crystal-clear visuals up to 8K@60Hz or 4K@144Hz with a compact, low-profile connector. A potential caveat is its specific application focus, making it less ideal for general-purpose, long-distance routing where a standard cable might suffice. This cable features a smaller diameter, triple-shielded construction, and gold-plated connectors for optimal signal integrity and durability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate supported by this cable?

This cable supports DisplayPort 1.4, allowing for resolutions up to 8K@60Hz (4:2:2 8bit) and 4K@144Hz (4:2:2 10bit).

Why is the connector described as 'slim' or 'low-profile'?

The slim, low-profile connector is designed to be more compact than standard DisplayPort connectors, making it easier to fit into tight spaces around ports, such as behind gaming monitors or graphics cards.

Is this cable compatible with older DisplayPort versions?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions (1.2, 1.3). However, the performance will be limited by the lowest version supported by either the source device or the display.

What does 'triple shielded' mean for the cable's performance?

Triple shielding helps to protect the signal from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring a more stable and reliable connection, especially at high resolutions and data rates.

Can this cable transmit audio as well as video?

Yes, like standard DisplayPort cables, this cable supports the transmission of high-definition audio alongside video signals.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

This Lindy cable comes with a 10-year warranty.

Is the 3-meter length suitable for all setups?

The 3-meter length offers good flexibility for many setups, from desks to smaller rooms. For longer distances, alternative solutions might be necessary as signal degradation can occur over extended lengths, though DisplayPort 1.4 is robust.

Troubleshooting

No video or audio signal is detected.

Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the source and display. Verify that the correct input is selected on the display. Try connecting the cable to a different DisplayPort on your source or display, or test with a different DisplayPort cable if available.

Flickering or intermittent signal.

Check for physical damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive strain or bending. Verify that the DisplayPort version supported by both the source and display is adequate for the resolution and refresh rate being used. Update graphics drivers on the source device.

Lower resolution or refresh rate than expected.

Confirm that both your graphics card and display support the desired resolution and refresh rate. Ensure you are using the DisplayPort 1.4 standard on both ends. Check graphics card settings and display preferences to ensure the correct output is selected.

DisplayPort connector is difficult to insert or remove.

Do not force the connector. Ensure there are no obstructions or bent pins in the port or on the connector. Gently wiggle the connector while attempting to insert or remove it. Verify that the device port is indeed a DisplayPort and not a Mini DisplayPort or other similar connector.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports high resolutions and refresh rates (8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz).
  • Compact, low-profile connectors are ideal for limited space environments.
  • Triple shielding and high-quality materials ensure signal integrity.
  • Durable construction with gold-plated contacts for longevity.
  • Versatile 3-meter length suits many applications.

Cons

  • May be overkill for standard Full HD or 4K@60Hz applications.
  • Slim design might be less robust than thicker, standard cables in high-stress situations.
  • Primarily designed for DisplayPort connections; not suitable for other port types.
  • Specific use case for compact spaces means standard cables might be preferred for general use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the source device (e.g., graphics card, laptop) and the display (e.g., monitor, TV) have standard DisplayPort ports.
  2. Connect one end of the cable firmly to the DisplayPort output of your source device.
  3. Connect the other end of the cable firmly to the DisplayPort input of your display.
  4. Power on your devices. The display should automatically detect the signal.

Compatibility:

  • This cable is compliant with the DisplayPort 1.4 standard. It is backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions (1.2, 1.3) but will operate at the highest supported standard by both devices.
  • Supports UHD resolutions up to 8K (7680x4320@60Hz 4:2:2 8bit) and 4K (4096x2160@144Hz 4:2:2 10bit).
  • Ensures high data transfer rates up to 32.4 Gbit/s.
  • Compatible with various devices including PCs, laptops, monitors, projectors, and graphics cards featuring DisplayPort outputs.

Care:

  • To clean the cable, gently wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store the cable in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent damage.
  • Avoid sharply bending or kinking the cable, as this can damage the internal conductors.
  • Ensure connectors are free from dust and debris before plugging them in.
