Monoprice DisplayPort 2.1 Cable 40Gbps

This Monoprice 147609 cable carries DisplayPort 2.1 signals at 40Gbps bandwidth. It connects a graphics card or docking station to a compatible monitor using two standard DisplayPort connectors. The three-foot length suits desktop setups where the display sits close to the source.

Suited for 8K60 or 4K165 HDR workflows

Creative professionals and competitive gamers who run displays at 8K60Hz or 4K165Hz with HDR10 will get the full link speed and DSC support they need. Builders whose monitors top out at 4K60Hz or 1440p do not require this bandwidth class and can use a lower-spec cable.

40Gbps certified bandwidth decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the VESA-certified 40Gbps throughput. If the target display and source both demand 8K60Hz or 4K165Hz over DisplayPort 2.1, this cable meets that requirement; if the system only runs 4K60Hz or below, the extra headroom goes unused.

Questions about this item

What clearance is needed behind the monitor for the 3 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable?

The cable is three feet long, so allow at least that much straight run plus a gentle bend radius behind the display; the connectors are standard full-size DisplayPort plugs.

Which end goes into the GPU and which into the monitor when installing the Monoprice 147609?

Both ends are identical male DisplayPort connectors; plug either end into the graphics card and the other into the monitor, then secure each latch by pressing the release button before pulling.

When should I replace this 40 Gbps DisplayPort cable?

Replace it if the latch tabs break, the plug wobbles in the port, or you see flicker, snow, or link drops at 8K 60 Hz or 4K 165 Hz that disappear with a known-good cable.
