Product Features
Technical Overview
This adapter cable implements DisplayPort 1.4 to HDMI 2.0b conversion through an integrated active chipset that maintains signal integrity across the 3-foot length. The 18 Gbit/s bandwidth supports 4K resolution at 60Hz with 8-bit color depth and dithering for smooth gradient transitions. HDR compatibility expands the dynamic range for brighter highlights and deeper shadows, while HDCP 2.3 ensures compatibility with the latest protected content from streaming services and media applications.
The cable features gold-plated connectors with EMI shielding to minimize signal interference and maintain consistent performance in electrically noisy environments. The DisplayPort end incorporates a latching mechanism that securely locks into source devices, while the HDMI end includes a gripping connector design that resists accidental disconnections from tension or vibration. This dual-securement approach makes the cable ideal for permanent installations, mobile workstations, and environments where cable movement is common.
