FAQ
What is the difference between this active adapter cable and a passive DisplayPort to HDMI cable?
This is an active adapter cable with integrated circuitry that converts DisplayPort signals to HDMI 2.0b protocol. Passive cables only work when the DisplayPort source has native HDMI compatibility (DisplayPort++). The active design ensures compatibility with all DisplayPort sources, including those without native HDMI output capability, and maintains signal integrity over the full 9.8-foot length.
Does this cable support HDR content from streaming services like Netflix?
Yes, the cable supports HDR metadata pass-through and HDCP 2.3 content protection, which is required for streaming 4K HDR content from services like Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video. The active conversion preserves HDR information while maintaining the necessary copy protection protocols for premium content playback.
What audio formats does this cable support?
The cable supports 7.1-channel uncompressed PCM audio, allowing multi-channel audio to pass through alongside video without requiring separate audio cables. This includes support for Dolby Digital and DTS formats when the source device encodes them as PCM. The audio is synchronized with video output for a complete AV experience.
Will this cable work with my gaming PC and 4K monitor?
Yes, the cable is ideal for gaming setups, supporting 4K resolution at 60Hz refresh rate with HDR. The 18 Gbps bandwidth ensures sufficient data throughput for gaming at this resolution. It works with NVIDIA GeForce, AMD Radeon, and Intel integrated graphics cards that have DisplayPort outputs, connecting them to HDMI 2.0b gaming monitors or televisions.
How does the EMI shielding improve performance?
The cage shielding around the cable conductors prevents electromagnetic interference from nearby power cables, motors, or wireless devices that can cause signal degradation, visual artifacts, or sync issues. This is particularly important in office environments with dense electronics or industrial settings where electrical noise is common, ensuring consistent 4K video transmission.
What is the warranty coverage for this adapter cable?
StarTech.com provides a 3-year limited warranty for this adapter cable, covering defects in materials and workmanship. The cable is also RoHS compliant, meaning it's manufactured without hazardous substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium, making it environmentally responsible for corporate and institutional purchasing.
What resolution or display format is specified?
It features a display specification of 4096 x 2160, giving you clear visuals for work and media use.
What refresh rate or brightness details are available?
Display-oriented products are best judged through screen, connectivity, and installation specifications. Those facts help buyers confirm visual fit, mounting flexibility, and deployment suitability more clearly than generic summary text.
