FAQs

What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this cable supports?

This cable supports up to 8K (7680 x 4320) at 120Hz and 4K (3840 x 2160) at 144Hz, provided your connected devices also support these specifications.

Is this cable backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions?

Yes, it is backward compatible with DisplayPort 1.4 and earlier versions, but you will only achieve the highest resolutions and refresh rates with DisplayPort 2.1 compatible devices.

What does UHBR10 mean?

UHBR10 refers to Ultra High Bit Rate 10, a specific data transmission mode within the DisplayPort 2.1 standard, capable of delivering up to 10 Gbps per lane, resulting in a total bandwidth of 40 Gbps for this cable.

Why is the 1-meter length important?

The 1-meter length is ideal for reducing signal degradation over distance and keeping desktop setups tidy. However, if you need to connect devices further apart, you may require a longer cable or an active extension solution.

How do I know if my devices are compatible with DisplayPort 2.1?

Check the specifications for your graphics card, monitor, or other source devices. Manufacturers will explicitly state support for DisplayPort 2.1 or its specific UHBR modes.

Can this cable be used for audio as well as video?

Yes, like all DisplayPort cables, this cable also supports audio transmission along with video signals.

Troubleshooting

No signal or intermittent signal

Ensure the cable is securely connected at both ends. Try a different DisplayPort on your graphics card and monitor. Verify that both your source device and display support the selected resolution and refresh rate. Test with a different, known-working DisplayPort cable to rule out cable failure.

Lower resolution or refresh rate than expected

Confirm that both your graphics card and monitor support the desired resolution and refresh rate. Check your display's on-screen settings to ensure the correct input is selected and configured. Update your graphics card drivers to the latest version. Ensure the cable is fully inserted.

Flickering or visual artifacts

This can indicate a loose connection or a potential issue with the cable's shielding or bandwidth capacity. Reseat the cable at both ends. If the problem persists, try a different DisplayPort 2.1 certified cable. Ensure there are no sources of strong electromagnetic interference near the cable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports cutting-edge resolutions and refresh rates (8K@120Hz, 4K@144Hz).
  • High 40Gbps bandwidth ensures uncompromised data transfer.
  • Official DisplayPort v2.1 certification for guaranteed compatibility and performance.
  • Durable construction for long-term reliability.
  • Clean and organized setup with a convenient 1-meter length.

Cons

  • 1-meter length may be too short for some desk setups or multi-monitor configurations requiring longer runs.
  • Requires compatible DisplayPort 2.1 source and display devices to achieve maximum specifications.
  • Higher bandwidth support means potential for interference if not connected properly or if other nearby devices emit strong electromagnetic fields.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the DisplayPort connector firmly into the DisplayPort output on your graphics card or source device and the DisplayPort input on your monitor or display. Ensure both ends are securely seated for optimal signal transmission.

Compatibility: This cable is designed for devices supporting DisplayPort v2.1 or earlier versions. It is backward compatible with DisplayPort 1.4 and previous standards, though features like 8K@120Hz will only be available with DP2.1 compatible hardware. Ensure your graphics card and display both support the desired resolution and refresh rate.

Care: Avoid tightly coiling the cable, as this can stress the internal wiring. Store the cable in a cool, dry place when not in use. Clean the connectors periodically with a dry, lint-free cloth to ensure a clean connection. Do not use liquid cleaners directly on the connectors.
