USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 cable for laptops

This braided cable connects a USB-C video port to a DisplayPort monitor. It serves professionals and gamers who need high-resolution or high-refresh external displays from a compact laptop or tablet. The 3.3-foot length keeps a desktop tidy while reaching most monitor inputs.

Bandwidth and refresh limits of the DisplayPort

The cable carries 32.4Gbps and meets the DisplayPort 1.4 specification. It supports 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz, 144Hz or 165Hz. Higher resolutions or faster refresh rates than these are not possible over this standard. The link also requires the host port to provide a native DisplayPort video signal.

Resolution headroom and where it stops

The 32.4Gbps bandwidth comfortably handles 8K at 60Hz for creative work and 4K at 165Hz for competitive gaming. It runs out of headroom for 8K above 60Hz or 4K beyond 165Hz. Buyers who want more bandwidth for future display standards will need a cable built to a newer specification.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 3.3Ft length or a longer cable for my desk setup?

The 3.3Ft length keeps the desktop tidy while reaching most monitors and docking stations; choose a longer cable only if your display sits further away.

What does 8K@60Hz actually deliver on my screen?

It sends an 8K image at 60 frames per second, while the same cable also handles 4K at 165Hz, 144Hz or 120Hz for high-refresh gaming.

Does the Thunderbolt 4/3 label limit the bandwidth to 32.4Gbps?

The cable supports the full DisplayPort 1.4 rate of 32.4Gbps through Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3 or video-capable USB-C ports.
