Direct Mini DisplayPort to HDMI connection

The StarTech MDP2HDMM5MB is a 16.4 ft passive cable that links a Mini DisplayPort source directly to an HDMI display. It carries 7.1 surround sound and supports resolutions up to 4K at 30 Hz over a single 5.0 m run.

Suits laptops and tablets with mDP output

Users with a MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Surface Pro or similar mDP-equipped computer can connect to an HDMI monitor, TV or projector without a separate adapter. Builders who require higher refresh rates at 4K or need to exceed the 5.0 m passive length limit should consider an alternative.

Passive converter limited to 4K 30 Hz

The cable uses a passive DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 1.4 conversion, so the maximum supported digital resolution is 4K at 30 Hz. This single specification determines whether the cable matches the display timing you need.

Questions about this item

What length is the cable and will it reach a display 5.0 metres away?

The cable is 16.4 ft (5.0 m) long, so it spans exactly that distance between your Mini DisplayPort source and the HDMI display.

How do I connect the 20-pin Mini DisplayPort plug and the 19-pin HDMI plug, and which end goes where?

Insert the 20-pin Mini DisplayPort male connector into the computer and the 19-pin HDMI male connector into the monitor; the cable is passive and works in one direction only.

Will the gold-plated contacts need cleaning or the cable itself need replacing after a few years?

The passive cable has no active electronics to degrade; only physical damage or worn connectors would require a replacement.
