10 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable for 8K
This VESA-certified DisplayPort 2.1 cable carries 40 Gbps bandwidth over a 10 ft length. It supports 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 144 Hz and 2K at 240 Hz with DSC 1.2a visually lossless compression. The cable is built with tinned copper conductors and triple-layer shielding for stable video and audio transmission. It suits PC gamers and home-theatre users who need long-reach, high-resolution connectivity.
Sustained 40 Gbps throughput with shielding and DSC
Triple-layer shielding and tinned copper keep signal integrity consistent during extended gaming or playback sessions, preventing visual glitches and audio sync issues. DSC 1.2a compression maintains 10-bit HDR quality at 8K 60 Hz or 4K 144 Hz without increasing link bandwidth. The construction resists wear from repeated plugging and unplugging, so performance remains stable over time. Multi-Stream Transport allows multiple monitors on a single output without bandwidth starvation.
Replaces older DisplayPort cables limited to HBR3
If your current cable tops out at 4K 60 Hz or lacks DSC support, this cable unlocks 8K 60 Hz, 4K 144 Hz and 2K 240 Hz with HDR and 32-bit 7.1 audio pass-through. It is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.4, 1.3, 1.2 and 1.1 devices, so older monitors and GPUs still work. Buyers who need longer runs than 10 ft or who require HDMI-only displays should look elsewhere. The jump is worth it when your source and sink both support DisplayPort 2.1 or 2.0 and you want full 40 Gbps capability.

Questions about this item
Does the 40 Gbps DisplayPort 2.1 cable generate any heat or draw noticeable power during all-day 8K 60 Hz use?
The cable is passive and draws no external power; it produces no measurable heat during continuous 8K 60 Hz or 4K 144 Hz operation.
What must my graphics card and monitor already provide for this 10 ft cable to deliver 8K 60 Hz or 4K 144 Hz?
Both the GPU and the display need native DisplayPort 2.1 ports with HBR3 support and DSC 1.2a capability to unlock the full 40 Gbps bandwidth.
Will this DisplayPort 2.1 cable work with my older monitor that only has DisplayPort 1.4?
Yes, the cable is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0, so it will run at the highest resolution and refresh rate the older port allows.
