SMUGDESK DisplayPort 2.1 cable 3.3 ft 40Gbps 8K@60Hz 4K@144Hz 2K@240Hz

SKU CH-9S6P-60EHQ

A 3.3 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable rated for 40 Gbps, carrying 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 144 Hz or 2K at 240 Hz with HDR and 7.1 audio

  • 40 Gbps bandwidth enables 8K at 60 Hz with DSC
  • 4K at 144 Hz and 2K at 240 Hz for high-refresh gaming
  • Dynamic HDR and HDCP 2.2 support richer colour and protected content
  • 32-bit audio pass-through up to 7.1 channels for immersive sound
  • Backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.0 through 2.0 standards

Ready for 8K@60Hz and 4K@144Hz

This DisplayPort 2.1 cable delivers 40Gbps bandwidth with VESA certification. It supports 8K@60Hz with DSC, 4K@144Hz, 2K@240Hz and 1080P@360Hz. Audio pass-through handles 7.1, 5.1 and 2.0 channels. The 3.3 ft nylon-braided cable works with DP, DP++ and DisplayPort++ ports on graphics cards and monitors.

Check your ports and resolution needs

Verify both your graphics card and monitor have DisplayPort connectors. Confirm your GPU and display support the target resolution and refresh rate you want. The cable is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0. Do not use an extension cord with this cable.

Replaces older DisplayPort 1.2 or 1.4 cables

The jump is worth it when you need 40Gbps bandwidth for 8K@60Hz or 4K@144Hz gaming. Older cables limited to lower bandwidth cannot drive these modes. If your current setup runs 4K@60Hz or 1440p@144Hz without issue, the upgrade brings no visible benefit.
