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.
