10 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable for 80 Gbps links
This 10 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable carries up to 80 Gbps between a graphics card and a monitor. It supports 16K at 30 Hz, 8K at 120 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz with DSC 1.2a, HDR10 and HDCP 2.2. The cable is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.4, 1.3, 1.2 and 1.1. It works with FreeSync and G-Sync displays.
Gamers and creators needing high refresh rates
The cable suits users driving 4K 240 Hz or 8K 120 Hz monitors from recent GTX or RTX graphics cards. It also fits laptops and consoles that output DisplayPort 2.1 signals. Buyers whose hardware only provides HDMI or USB-C video outputs cannot use this cable. Systems limited to DisplayPort 1.2 bandwidth will not reach the highest listed resolutions and refresh rates.
80 Gbps bandwidth enables 16K 30 Hz or 4K 240 Hz
The single specification that decides fit is the 80 Gbps link rate. It allows 16K at 30 Hz, 8K at 120 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz when both source and display support DSC 1.2a. If the graphics card or monitor tops out at a lower link rate, the maximum resolution and refresh rate will be lower.

Questions about this item
Does my graphics card need a DisplayPort 2.1 output to use this cable?
The cable works with any DisplayPort source — 1.0 through 2.1 — but 80 Gbps speeds and 16K@30 Hz or 4K@240 Hz require a GPU and monitor that both implement DisplayPort 2.1.
Will this cable run my older DisplayPort 1.4 monitor at 1440p 165 Hz?
Yes — the cable is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.4, 1.3, 1.2 and earlier, so a 1440p 165 Hz signal passes without issue.
How can I verify the link is running at the full 80 Gbps after I plug it in?
Open the monitor OSD or GPU control panel and confirm the active link rate shows UHBR20 (80 Gbps) with DSC enabled for the chosen resolution and refresh rate.
