Short secure cable for DisplayPort devices

The STARTECH DISPL50CM is a 0.5 m DisplayPort 1.2 cable with latching male connectors on both ends. It supports resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz and HBR2 bandwidth of 21.6 Gbps. The 28 AWG conductors use aluminum-mylar foil with braid shielding under a CMG-rated PVC jacket. The short length suits mobile use such as connecting a laptop to an external monitor.

Fits tight spaces and reduces clutter

The 50 cm length keeps excess cable off the desk and fits inside compact laptop bags. Latching connectors prevent accidental disconnection when the system is moved. No external power or adapters are required; the cable carries video, optional audio and Multi-Stream daisy-chain data directly between two DisplayPort ports. The 19 conductors handle the full 21.6 Gbps link without signal boosters.

Suits users who need a short reliable link

Buyers who need a secure short connection between two DisplayPort 1.2 devices will find the length and latches ideal. Builders who need longer runs, in-wall ratings or non-latching connectors should look at other cables. The fixed 0.5 m length cannot be extended without adding a coupler or a second cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 21.6 Gbps HBR2 bandwidth hold steady during extended 4K 60 Hz sessions?

The cable is rated for HBR2 bandwidth up to 21.6 Gbps, supporting 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz continuously.

Does the 28 AWG PVC-jacketed cable with foil-and-braid shielding run warm or draw noticeable power on a full-day workload?

It is a passive copper cable with no active electronics, so it generates no heat and draws no power beyond the DisplayPort source.

Must both my laptop and monitor already have latching DisplayPort 20-pin ports for this male-to-male cable to work?

Yes, each end needs a standard DisplayPort 20-pin receptacle; the latching male plugs will not fit Mini DisplayPort, USB-C or HDMI sockets.
