Active DP 1.4 to HDMI 2.0b adapter cable

This six-foot cable converts a DisplayPort 1.4 source to an HDMI 2.0b display. It supports 4K resolution at 60 Hz with HDR and 7.1-channel audio. The active design ensures signal integrity across the full length. It is suited for users connecting a DP-equipped PC or laptop to an HDMI monitor or TV.

Check your source and display ports

Verify that the source device provides a standard DisplayPort 1.4 output with latching capability. The display must accept an HDMI 2.0b input to achieve 4K 60 Hz. This cable carries 18 Gbps bandwidth and requires no external power. It will not work with a USB-C port unless that port natively outputs DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Fits a direct PC-to-screen link

The male-to-male connectors eliminate separate adapters and free up a port on the display side. Latching DisplayPort and gripping HDMI plugs resist accidental disconnection. Cage shielding protects against EMI in dense cable runs. Backward compatibility covers 4K 30 Hz and 1080p displays. It does not suit setups needing a second card or longer runs beyond six feet.

Questions about this item

Does the cable come with any extra adapters or do I need to buy a separate DisplayPort or HDMI connector?

The cable has a male DisplayPort 1.4 connector on one end and a male HDMI 2.0b connector on the other. No separate adapters are required for a direct DP-to-HDMI link.

Should I choose a different length or version if my monitor only supports 4K at 30 Hz?

This 6 ft active cable is backward compatible with 4K 30 Hz and 1080p displays, so the same model works without needing a different version.

What does the 18 Gbps bandwidth actually deliver when I plug this into a PC and a 4K 60 Hz screen?

The 18 Gbps link supports 4K 60 Hz HDR, 4:4:4/RGB colour space, HDCP 1.4/2.3 and 7.1-channel audio over a single 6 ft cable.
