Product identity

This six-foot dual-link DVI-D cable carries digital video between a computer and a display at resolutions up to 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz. Gold-plated contacts and a built-in equaliser help maintain signal quality over the full length. The CL2 rating permits in-wall installation where building codes require it.

Interface limits

Dual-link DVI-D doubles the TMDS pairs compared with single-link, enabling the stated maximum resolution but no higher. The cable carries video only; it does not transmit audio, Ethernet or USB data. Bandwidth is fixed by the DVI standard, so refresh rates above 60 Hz at the top resolution are not supported.

Deciding specification

The 2560 x 1600 dual-link ceiling is the single figure that determines whether this cable matches the display and graphics card in use. If the monitor requires a higher resolution or a different digital interface, this cable will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I pick a single-link or dual-link DVI cable for a 2560 x 1600 monitor?

Choose this dual-link DVI-D cable; it doubles the TMDS pairs to deliver 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz, while a single-link cable stops at 1920 x 1080.

Will the 2560 x 1600 rating actually appear on my screen at 60 Hz?

Yes, the dual-link construction provides enough bandwidth for 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz, provided your graphics card and monitor both support dual-link DVI-D.

What does the CL2 rating on this 6 ft cable allow me to do?

CL2 rating means the cable meets fire-safety requirements for in-wall installation, so you can run it behind drywall or through studs without violating building codes.
