Active 8K60 USB-C to DisplayPort cable

This active cable connects a USB-C device that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode to a DisplayPort monitor. It is suited for creative professionals, gamers and office users who need a single reliable link for high-resolution work or play.

Supports 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz

The single specification that decides suitability is the maximum supported resolution and refresh rate: 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz over DisplayPort 1.4. If the display or source cannot reach these modes, a passive cable may suffice.

Retimer IC maintains signal integrity

A built-in retimer IC reduces jitter and preserves bandwidth across the six-foot length, keeping HDR quality stable without dropouts. The aluminium shell and TPE jacket protect the conductors during daily use while the locking DisplayPort connector prevents accidental disconnection.

Questions about this item

What does 8K at 60 Hz mean when I plug this cable into my laptop and monitor?

It carries an 8K signal at 60 frames per second from a USB-C source that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode to a DisplayPort 1.4 display, provided both ends can handle that bandwidth.

How does the DisplayPort 1.4 interface limit what I can actually run?

The cable is built to the DisplayPort 1.4 standard, so its maximum throughput follows that specification; any resolution or refresh rate combination within the 8K60 and 4K120 ratings will work if the host and monitor also support it.

What do I need on my desk or wall to mount the 6 ft length without strain?

The cable is 6 ft long with a locking DisplayPort connector and a USB-C plug; allow enough slack for the bend radius of the TPE jacket and secure the locking latch so the connection cannot pull loose.
