SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable 3.3FT 80Gbps 16K@30Hz 4K@240Hz

SKU CH-2585-6K3D4

Transmits 16K at 30 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz over 3.3 ft with 80 Gbps bandwidth and DSC 1.2a

  • 80 Gbps bandwidth enables 16K at 30 Hz
  • 4K at 240 Hz for ultra-smooth gaming
  • Dynamic HDR 4:4:4 colour with DSC 1.2a
  • Braided cable with gold-plated aluminium connectors
  • Backwards compatible with DP 2.0 and DP 1.4

80 Gbps DisplayPort 2.1 cable

This 3.3 ft cable carries up to 80 Gbps and meets the VESA DisplayPort 2.1 specification with DSC 1.2a. It supports dynamic HDR 4:4:4, HDR10 and HDCP 2.2 while remaining backward compatible with DP 2.0, 1.4 and 1.2. Aluminium shells and gold-plated connectors ensure stable, loss-free transmission.

Replaces older DP 1.4 links

The bandwidth is nearly three times higher than a DP 1.4 connection, enabling 16K at 30 Hz or 4K at 240 Hz without compression artefacts. Upgrade when your monitor and graphics card both support DP 2.1 and you need the full 80 Gbps link for high refresh rates or deep colour. It adds no benefit if either end is limited to DP 1.4 or lower.

Drives 4K 240 Hz and 16K 30 Hz

Comfortably handles 4K at 240 Hz, 165 Hz or 144 Hz and 2K at up to 360 Hz for competitive gaming. Also carries 8K at 120 Hz and 10K at 60 Hz for professional workflows. The 3.3 ft length suits desktop setups; longer runs or in-wall installations will need an active or fibre alternative not covered by this cable.

Questions about this item

What size DisplayPort connector does the 3.3FT cable use?

The cable uses standard full-size DisplayPort connectors with gold-plated contacts and an aluminium shell on both ends.

Which way round do you plug the 80Gbps DP 2.1 cable for 16K@30Hz?

Connect the DisplayPort plugs firmly into the GPU and monitor ports, then set the display to Extend or Duplicate mode in Windows display settings so the link trains at 80Gbps.

When should the braided 3.3FT DP 2.1 cable be replaced?

Replace the cable if the braided jacket frays, the gold-plated pins bend, or the link drops from 16K@30Hz or 4K@240Hz to lower modes.
