Mini DisplayPort 2.1 cable for 16K workflows
This 6.6 ft cable links a Mini DisplayPort source to a standard DisplayPort display at up to 16K 60 Hz or 8K 120 Hz. It suits creative professionals and gamers who need high bandwidth from laptops or desktops equipped with Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 1 and 2 ports.
Sustained 80 Gbps bandwidth for long sessions
The DisplayPort 2.1 link maintains 80 Gbps throughput without throttling during extended rendering or gaming sessions. Backward compatibility with DisplayPort 1.4 and 1.2 ensures stable operation when connected to older monitors or docks that negotiate lower speeds.
Simple bi-directional hookup with one caveat
Plug either end into the source and the other into the display; the cable works both ways. When driving a Mini DisplayPort monitor from a full-size DisplayPort computer, verify that the monitor’s Mini DP port supports video input, otherwise no signal will appear.

Questions about this item
Does the 80 Gbps DisplayPort 2.1 cable draw extra power or get warm during all-day 16K 60 Hz use?
The cable is passive and carries only signal; it adds no measurable heat and draws no external power.
What ports must my laptop and monitor already have for this 6.6 ft Mini DP to DP 2.1 lead to work?
One end needs a Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 1/2 port; the other needs a full-size DisplayPort 2.1 input.
Will the bi-directional 16K cable drive my older DisplayPort 1.4 monitor at 4K 240 Hz without handshake issues?
Yes, the cable is backward compatible with DisplayPort 1.4 and 1.2, so 4K 240 Hz works on legacy displays.
