FAQs

What is the maximum resolution this cable supports?

This Aura DisplayPort Cable meets the DisplayPort 1.4 standard, which supports resolutions up to 8K (7680 x 4320) at 60Hz, or 4K (3840 x 2160) at 120Hz, depending on the capabilities of your connected devices.

Is this cable compatible with older DisplayPort versions?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions (1.2, 1.3, etc.). However, you will only be able to utilize the features and bandwidth supported by the lowest version in the chain (cable, source device, and display).

What does 'OFC copper' mean?

OFC stands for Oxygen-Free Copper. Using high-purity copper with minimal oxygen content helps to reduce signal loss and degradation, leading to a cleaner and more stable signal transmission, especially over longer distances or at higher bandwidths.

How durable is the TPE outer sheath?

The TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) outer sheath provides excellent flexibility and resistance to kinking, stretching, and abrasion, making it more durable and long-lasting compared to standard PVC jackets.

How do I connect the cable securely?

Connect the cable to the DisplayPort ports on your devices and push the connectors in until you hear or feel the latches click into place. This ensures a firm connection that prevents accidental unplugging.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

The Aura DisplayPort Cable comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty, providing assurance for its durability and performance.

Why are the connectors gold-plated?

Gold plating on the connectors enhances conductivity, ensures a reliable connection, and provides resistance to corrosion and oxidation, which can degrade signal quality over time.

Troubleshooting

No signal detected on the display

Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the source and display devices. Verify that the correct input source is selected on the display. Try using a different DisplayPort on your source or display device. Test with another compatible cable if possible.

Flickering or intermittent display

Check for loose connections. Ensure the cable is not damaged. Reduce the resolution or refresh rate in your display settings as a temporary test. Verify that the cable is properly shielded and away from potential sources of interference.

Incorrect resolution or refresh rate options

Confirm that both your graphics card and monitor support the desired resolution and refresh rate. Ensure the cable meets the necessary bandwidth requirements (DisplayPort 1.4 is recommended for high resolutions/refresh rates). Update your graphics card drivers.

Latching connector is difficult to release

Press the release tab firmly inwards before attempting to pull the connector. Ensure no debris is obstructing the latch mechanism. If persistently stiff, wiggle the connector gently while pressing the tab.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality materials for signal integrity (OFC copper, shielding).
  • Secure and reliable connection with latching connectors.
  • Durable and flexible TPE cable sheath.
  • Supports latest DisplayPort 1.4 standards for high resolutions.
  • Environmentally conscious, plastic-free packaging.
  • Extended 5-year manufacturer warranty.

Cons

  • May be overkill for basic, low-resolution applications.
  • Latching connectors can sometimes be stiff to release.
  • The black color may not match all setups aesthetically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the source device (e.g., graphics card, laptop) and the display device (e.g., monitor, projector) have DisplayPort ports.
  2. Connect one end of the Aura DisplayPort Cable to the source device's DisplayPort output.
  3. Connect the other end to the display device's DisplayPort input.
  4. Gently push the connectors until the latches click into place for a secure fit.
  5. Power on your devices. The display should automatically detect the signal. If not, refer to your display's input settings.

Compatibility:

  • This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard DisplayPort output and input, including computers, laptops, graphics cards, monitors, and projectors.
  • It supports DisplayPort standard V1.4, ensuring compatibility with resolutions up to 8K and features like HBR3, DSC, and HDR.
  • Backward compatible with older DisplayPort versions (1.2, 1.3), though advanced features may not be supported.

Care:

  • To clean the cable, gently wipe the TPE sheath with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store the cable away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight when not in use.
  • To disconnect, firmly press the release buttons on the connectors before pulling them out to avoid damaging the latches.
