What the cable does
This SMUGDESK cable carries video and audio between a Mini DisplayPort source and a full-size DisplayPort display, or the reverse. It is rated for DisplayPort 2.1 with up to 80 Gbps bandwidth and supports resolutions up to 16K at 60 Hz, 8K at 120 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz. The ten-foot length suits desktop or meeting-room runs.
Who should buy it and who should not
The bi-directional design works for laptops with Mini DisplayPort and monitors with standard DisplayPort, and it is tested with Thunderbolt 2 hosts. Buyers who need a standard DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort link or a USB-C alt-mode cable should look at a different cable type. The fixed ten-foot length may be too long for tight desk setups.
Installation and common issues
Plug the Mini DisplayPort end into the source or display and the full-size DisplayPort end into the other device; no driver or software is required. Gold-plated connectors and triple-layer shielding reduce signal loss, but sharp bends or heavy objects on the braided jacket can damage the internal conductors over time. Ensure both ports are clean before connecting.

Questions about this item
Does my laptop need a Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 2 port to use this cable?
Yes, the source device must provide a Mini DisplayPort output or a Thunderbolt 2 port that carries DisplayPort alternate mode for the cable to carry video and audio.
Will this cable work with a monitor that only has a standard DisplayPort 1.4 input?
The cable is bi‑directional and VESA certified for DP 2.1, so it will link a Mini DisplayPort source to a DisplayPort 1.4 display at the display’s maximum supported resolution and refresh rate.
How can I confirm the cable is delivering 8K at 120 Hz after I connect it?
Open the display settings on your computer and verify the active resolution reads 7680 x 4320 at 120 Hz; the monitor’s on‑screen menu should show the same figures.
