Cable specification and intended use

This SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable carries 40Gbps bandwidth over a 3.3ft length. It supports 8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz and 2K@240Hz for video and gaming. The cord uses 28AWG oxygen-free copper with triple shielding. It is VESA certified for DisplayPort 2.1 performance.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The cable fits desktops, laptops and high-refresh monitors with a DisplayPort socket. It works with cards such as Radeon R9 290, GTX 980 and GTX 1080. It is not for buyers who need a longer run or a different connector type.

Deciding specification

The single figure that decides fit is the 40Gbps DisplayPort 2.1 rating. If your source and display both support this standard you gain 8K@60Hz or 4K@240Hz with DSC. Without 2.1 ports the link falls back to 1.4 or 1.2 speeds.

Questions about this item

What comes with the SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable and do I need to buy any adapters separately?

The package includes the 3.3ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable with triple shielding and 28AWG oxygen-free copper conductors. No separate adapters are required as it connects directly between DisplayPort outputs and inputs.

How do I choose between the supported resolution and refresh rate combinations like 8K@60Hz or 4K@144Hz?

Select the mode your monitor and graphics card both support. The cable handles 8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz or 120Hz, 2K@240Hz or 165Hz, and 1080p@360Hz or 240Hz via its 40Gbps bandwidth.

What does the 40Gbps rating mean when I plug this cable into my gaming monitor?

The 40Gbps bandwidth enables uncompressed 8K@60Hz or 4K@240Hz video, supports FreeSync and G Sync for tear-free gaming, and carries HDR and HDCP 2.2 signals without loss.
