• Bandwidth: Up to 32 Gbps, ensuring no compression artifacts even on the most demanding content.
• Connector Type: Male-to-Male DisplayPort (M/M) with latching connectors for a secure, cable‑free connection that resists accidental unplugging.
• Cable Diameter: 7.5 mm – slim enough to fit in tight spaces yet robust enough to handle heavy data loads.
• Conductors: 19 high‑quality conductors provide the necessary pathways for video, audio, and control signals.
• Sustainability: RoHS compliant, ensuring that hazardous substances are excluded from manufacturing.

Why DisplayPort 1.4 Is a Game Changer

DisplayPort 1.4 introduces several breakthroughs over its predecessors:

• Higher Bandwidth: 32 Gbps allows for higher resolutions and refresh rates without the need for multiple cables.
• HDR10 Support: Dynamic metadata enhances color accuracy, contrast, and brightness for lifelike visuals.
• Adaptive Sync & Variable Refresh Rate (VRR): Eliminates screen tearing and stuttering in gaming scenarios.
• MST (Multi‑Stream Transport): Enables daisy‑chaining multiple monitors from a single output, simplifying desk setups.

Design & Build Quality

The cable’s straight form factor connectors are engineered for durability. Each connector features a locking latch mechanism, ensuring that the connection remains stable even under vibration or movement. The 7.5 mm diameter is balanced to provide flexibility while maintaining structural integrity, preventing kinks and stress points.

Installation & Compatibility

Installing this cable is straightforward:

1. Connect the male DisplayPort end to your computer’s or graphics card’s DisplayPort 1.4 output.
2. Attach the other male end to your monitor, TV, or projector that supports DisplayPort 1.4.
3. The latching connectors automatically secure the connection; simply press until you hear a click.

This cable is fully compatible with any device that offers a DisplayPort 1.4 output or input, including:

• High‑end gaming PCs and workstations.
• Professional monitors (e.g., Dell UltraSharp, LG UltraFine).
• HDR10 capable TVs and projectors.
• Audio/visual setups that require high‑bandwidth video streams.

Performance in Real-World Scenarios

Gaming: With 4K at 120 Hz, gamers experience fluid motion and reduced input lag. The HDR10 support brings richer colors and deeper blacks to modern titles that leverage high dynamic range.

Creative Work: Video editors working with 8K footage benefit from the cable’s ability to transmit uncompressed data without frame drops or color distortion, ensuring accurate color grading and editing precision.

Professional Displays: In multi‑monitor setups, MST allows a single DisplayPort output to drive up to four monitors simultaneously. The cable’s robust construction ensures reliable performance across extended use.

Packaging & Quantity

The product comes in a 30‑piece pack, each cable measuring 10 ft (3 m). This makes it ideal for:

• Large office deployments where multiple displays need to be connected.
• Event setups requiring quick, reliable connections across various devices.
• Personal collections where having spare cables is essential for maintenance or upgrades.

Environmental & Safety Certifications

The cable adheres to RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), meaning it contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, or other hazardous materials. This commitment to safety and environmental responsibility aligns with modern manufacturing standards.
