- Supports 8K 120Hz and 4K 240Hz refresh rates for smooth gaming and creative work
What this cable connects
The SMUGDESK Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 2.1 cable links a Mini DisplayPort source such as a laptop or Mac to a standard DisplayPort monitor or TV. It also works in the reverse direction from a DisplayPort computer to a Mini DisplayPort display. The bi‑directional design supports video and audio transfer for home office, meeting or home theatre setups. It is not suited for builders who need a second cable for a different port type.
Bandwidth under sustained use
VESA certified DisplayPort 2.1 delivers up to 80Gbps bandwidth for stable 16K at 60Hz, 8K at 120Hz and 4K at 240Hz during extended sessions. Triple‑layer shielding and a nylon braided jacket protect signal integrity over the 6.6ft length, preventing distortion when driving high refresh rates or HDR content. Users who require longer runs beyond this length will need an active solution.
Installing the cable
Gold‑plated plugs seat firmly in Mini DisplayPort and standard DisplayPort sockets without adapters. The bi‑directional function works automatically, so there is no need to flip the cable for a specific source or display. Compatibility with Thunderbolt 2 ports is confirmed, but the cable cannot convert a non‑DP alternate mode USB‑C port to DisplayPort.

Questions about this item
How much heat or power does the 6.6ft cable draw when running 16K at 60Hz all day?
The passive copper cable draws no external power and generates negligible heat during continuous 80Gbps transmission.
Which ports must my laptop and monitor already have for this bi‑directional cable to work?
One end needs a Mini DisplayPort 1.4 or Thunderbolt 2 port; the other end needs a full‑size DisplayPort 2.1 input.
Will the cable work with my older 4K 60Hz monitor that only has DisplayPort 1.2?
Yes, the DP 2.1 cable is backward compatible and will carry 4K 60Hz signals over the legacy 1.2 link.
