Black braided DisplayPort cable with gold aluminium connectors, 6.6ft long

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 Cable 6.6ft 80Gbps 16K@30Hz 4K@240Hz

SKU CH-AVSY-E1P6J

A VESA-certified DisplayPort 2.1 cable delivers 80Gbps bandwidth for 16K@30Hz, 8K@120Hz and 4K@240Hz gaming with DSC and Dynamic HDR

  • 80Gbps bandwidth enables 16K@30Hz and 4K@240Hz gaming
  • VESA certified DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR20 support for stable transmission
  • Dynamic HDR 4:4:4 and HDCP 2.2 for accurate colour reproduction
  • Braided cable with gold-plated connectors resists wear and signal loss
  • Backward compatible with DP 1.4 and 1.2 devices

What this cable delivers

This SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable carries up to 80 Gbps over a 6.6 ft link. It connects a graphics card or laptop to a monitor with a male-to-male DisplayPort plug. Builders running 4K at 240 Hz or 8K at 120 Hz get the headroom they need without signal loss.

Behaviour under sustained load

The cable maintains the full 80 Gbps rate during long gaming or work sessions. VESA certification and DSC 1.2a support keep compression artefacts low even when the link runs at 4K 240 Hz or 8K 120 Hz for hours. Aluminium shells and gold-plated contacts resist heat-related degradation.

Limits of the DisplayPort 2.1 interface

DisplayPort 2.1 tops out at 80 Gbps, so 16K at 30 Hz is the practical ceiling. Higher refresh rates at 16K or uncompressed 10K 120 Hz exceed the bandwidth. The cable is backward compatible with DP 1.4 and 1.2, but those links fall back to their lower maximum rates.

Questions about this item

Does the 80 Gbps DisplayPort 2.1 cable generate any heat or draw noticeable power during all-day 4K 240 Hz gaming?

The cable is passive and draws no external power; it carries the 80 Gbps signal without active electronics, so it produces no measurable heat during continuous use.

What must my graphics card and monitor already provide for this 6.6 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable to deliver 16K 30 Hz or 4K 240 Hz?

Both ends need a DisplayPort 2.1 port that supports UHBR20; the GPU must output DSC 1.2a and the monitor must accept the same link rate for the highest resolutions.

Will this DP 2.1 cable work reliably with my older GTX 1080 and a 144 Hz 1440p monitor?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with DP 1.4 and 1.2, so it will run 1440p at 144 Hz or 4K at 60 Hz from a GTX 1080 without issues.
