Purpose and audience
This DisplayPort 2.1 cable connects a desktop or laptop to a high-refresh-rate monitor or projector. It suits gamers and professionals who need 8K 60 Hz or 4K 144 Hz video without signal loss. The 10 ft length covers typical desk-to-display runs. Buyers who want longer runs or fibre-optic links cannot use this copper cable.
Build integration
The cable plugs into any DisplayPort 2.1, 2.0, 1.4 or 1.2 port on graphics cards such as Radeon R9 290, GTX 980 or GTX 1080 and on monitors from BenQ, Dell, HP, Acer, iiyama or Samsung Odyssey models. Triple shielding and 28 AWG oxygen-free copper keep the 40 Gbps link stable. No external power or adapters are required. Systems without a DisplayPort output cannot use this cable.
Accessory impact
The nylon-braided jacket resists kinks and everyday wear. VESA certification guarantees compliance with the DisplayPort 2.1 standard. Support for HDR, HDCP 2.2, 3D, FreeSync and G Sync is carried through the cable, so the connected hardware can enable those features. No software or drivers are bundled.

Questions about this item
Does the 40Gbps bandwidth of this DisplayPort 2.1 cable sustain 8K 60Hz without compression over the full 10ft length?
Yes, the VESA certified cable is rated for 40Gbps and supports 8K at 60Hz at 10ft with triple shielding and 28AWG oxygen-free copper conductors.
Will the cable get warm or draw noticeable power during all-day 4K 144Hz gaming sessions?
As a passive copper cable it draws negligible power and generates no measurable heat during continuous high-refresh-rate use.
Must my graphics card and monitor both have native DisplayPort 2.1 ports to use this cable?
No, the cable is backwards compatible with DP 2.0, 1.4 and 1.2 so it works with older GPUs such as GTX 980 or Radeon R9 290 and standard DP monitors.
