16K DisplayPort 2.1 Cable

The SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable carries 80 Gbps bandwidth for 16K at 60 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz. It suits gamers and creators who need lossless high-resolution video and dynamic HDR on compatible monitors and graphics cards. The 3.3 ft length fits typical desktop setups. Backwards compatibility covers DP 2.0, 1.4 and 1.2 devices.

Bandwidth and Compression Limits

The 80 Gbps link uses DSC 1.2a compression to reach 16K at 60 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz. Without host support for DSC or DP 2.1 UHBR20 the cable falls back to lower rates such as 4K at 144 Hz or 2K at 360 Hz. HDCP 2.2 content requires matching support on both source and sink. The copper construction does not extend the certified reach beyond the supplied length.

Resolution and Refresh Headroom

The cable comfortably drives 8K at 120 Hz, 4K at 240 Hz and 2K at 360 Hz when the GPU and monitor implement the matching DP 2.1 modes. It runs out of headroom for uncompressed 16K above 60 Hz or 4K beyond 240 Hz. Buyers whose displays only offer HDMI 2.1 or DP 1.4 will not reach the advertised 16K or 4K 240 Hz figures.
