Cable standard and bandwidth
This DisplayPort 2.1 cable delivers 40 Gbps bandwidth using HBR10 signalling. It is built for users who need the full capability of DP 2.1 between a graphics card and a high-resolution monitor.
Sustained high-resolution output
The cable maintains 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 144 Hz and 2K at 240 Hz without dropping frames during extended sessions. Backwards compatibility with DP 2.0, 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0 ensures stable operation across mixed-generation hardware.
Interface practical limits
At 6.6 ft the link supports the certified 40 Gbps rate; longer runs would require active or fibre solutions not covered by this passive copper design. It carries 32-bit uncompressed audio up to 7.1 channels and handles DSC 1.2a compression for the highest refresh rates.

Questions about this item
Does the 6.6 ft DisplayPort 2.1 cable generate any heat or noise during all-day use?
No, the cable is a passive copper link with no active components, so it produces no heat and makes no sound regardless of how long it runs.
What ports must my graphics card and monitor already have for this DP 2.1 cable to work?
Both devices need a full-size DisplayPort connector; the cable plugs directly into DP, DP++ or DisplayPort++ ports without adapters.
Will this 40 Gbps cable work with my older monitor that only supports DisplayPort 1.2?
Yes, the cable is backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.2, 1.2a, 1.1 and 1.0, so it will carry whatever resolution and refresh rate the older port allows.
