Active DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter for 4K Displays

The Plugable DP-HDMI active adapter converts a full-sized DisplayPort output on a laptop, desktop, tablet or docking station to an HDMI input on a monitor or HDTV. It uses an integrated chipset to translate the signal without requiring driver installation. The adapter supports resolutions up to 3840x2160 at 60 Hz with Standard Dynamic Range and 30 Hz with High Dynamic Range capable displays. It is VESA certified and compliant with DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 standards.

Replaces Passive Dongles When Higher Refresh Is

A passive cable or dongle often limits 4K output to 30 Hz because it cannot perform the protocol translation required for higher bit rates. This active adapter is worth the step up when the source and display both support 4K at 60 Hz and a stable, driverless connection is required. It also enables multi-monitor setups on AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA Surround capable graphics cards. It will not work with gaming consoles, media players or USB ports, and it does not operate in reverse from HDMI to DisplayPort.

Simple Plug-In Installation With One Common Pitfall

Installation is straightforward: connect the adapter to the source DisplayPort, attach an HDMI cable to the adapter and the display, then configure the display in the operating system. The unit is compact at 8.3 inches long and weighs 0.02 pounds, making it easy to carry. The most frequent issue is attempting bidirectional use or connecting to a device that lacks a full-sized DisplayPort output; the adapter only converts from DisplayPort source to HDMI display. An HDMI cable is not included in the package.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter need a full-sized DisplayPort on the source device to work?

Yes, it converts a full-sized DisplayPort output on a laptop, desktop, tablet or docking station to an HDMI input on a display.

What is the step people often miss when plugging it in for the first time?

Remember that an HDMI cable is not included, so you must supply your own cable to complete the connection between the adapter and the monitor.

Will the adapter itself need a firmware update or chip replacement to keep supporting 4K 60Hz?

No, the active chipset is fixed in hardware and requires no firmware updates or component swaps to maintain 3840x2160 at 60Hz operation.
