FAQs

What is UHBR20?

UHBR20 stands for Ultra High Bit Rate 20, a mode within the DisplayPort v2.1 standard that supports a maximum data rate of 80 Gbps, enabling extremely high resolutions and refresh rates.

Is this cable compatible with older DisplayPort versions?

Yes, this cable is backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions (e.g., v1.4), but it will only operate at its maximum capabilities when connected to DisplayPort v2.1 compatible devices.

Can I use this cable for 16K resolution?

Yes, this DisplayPort v2.1 UHBR20 cable supports resolutions up to 16K at 60Hz, provided your source device (e.g., graphics card) and display both support this standard.

What is the advantage of gold-plated connectors?

Gold-plated connectors offer superior conductivity and resistance to corrosion, ensuring a stable and reliable signal connection over time.

Why is the cable length only 0.5 meters?

The 0.5-meter length is optimized for shorter, direct connections to minimize cable clutter and potential signal degradation that can occur over longer distances, especially at high bandwidths.

How does the 80 Gbps bandwidth benefit me?

The high 80 Gbps bandwidth allows for uncompressed, high-resolution video and audio transmission at high refresh rates without lag or artifacts, crucial for gaming and professional visual applications.

What does 'VESA Certified' mean?

VESA Certified means the cable has been tested and verified by VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) to meet the strict performance and quality standards of the DisplayPort v2.1 specification.

Troubleshooting

No signal or flickering display

Ensure the cable is securely plugged into both the source and display. Try a different DisplayPort on your graphics card and monitor. Verify that both devices support the resolution and refresh rate being used. Check if the cable is compatible with the required DisplayPort version.

Lower resolution or refresh rate than expected

Confirm that both your graphics card and monitor fully support DisplayPort v2.1 and the desired resolution/refresh rate. Ensure the graphics drivers are up to date. Lower the resolution or refresh rate to see if stability improves, then gradually increase it.

Video intermittently drops

Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the connection is firm. Reduce the video output resolution or refresh rate. Test with a different DisplayPort cable to rule out a cable defect.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports the latest DisplayPort v2.1 standards for future-proofing.
  • Enables extremely high resolutions and refresh rates for immersive experiences.
  • High 80 Gbps bandwidth ensures smooth, uncompressed video and audio.
  • Durable construction with premium materials for reliability.
  • Gold-plated connectors offer excellent signal quality.
  • Compact length minimizes desk clutter.

Cons

  • The 0.5m length may be too short for some setups requiring longer cable runs.
  • Requires compatible DisplayPort v2.1 source and display devices to achieve maximum performance.
  • Higher cost associated with cutting-edge v2.1 technology.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply plug the DisplayPort connectors into the corresponding ports on your graphics card and display. Ensure a secure connection at both ends. For best results, connect to devices that support DisplayPort v2.1 or earlier versions.

Compatibility: This cable is backward compatible with previous DisplayPort versions (v2.0, v1.4, etc.), but will only achieve its maximum advertised performance (16K, 8K@240Hz, 80 Gbps) when used with devices that also support DisplayPort v2.1 UHBR20.

Care: Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable. Keep connectors clean by gently wiping them with a dry, lint-free cloth if needed. Do not use liquid cleaners directly on the connectors. Store the cable away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
