Active HDMI-to-DisplayPort adapter

This active adapter converts an HDMI 2.0 source signal to a DisplayPort 1.2 output for connecting a DP monitor. It is not bi-directional and only works from an HDMI source to a DisplayPort display. A 30cm cable links the two connectors, and a USB-A power cable draws bus power from the host or a wall charger. Plug-and-play operation requires no driver installation.

Upgrade from passive cables

Passive HDMI-to-DP cables cannot convert the signalling protocol, so they fail when a DisplayPort monitor lacks an HDMI input. This active adapter performs the conversion and supports 3840x2160 at 60Hz with HDR and HDCP 2.2. The jump is worth it when the source only offers HDMI 2.0 and the display requires a native DisplayPort 1.2 connection for full resolution and refresh rate.

Build integration notes

The 30cm tether reduces mechanical strain on both the HDMI and DisplayPort ports during use. USB bus power means no external power brick is needed, freeing a mains socket and keeping the cabling tidy. Compatibility spans laptops, desktops, Ultrabooks, MacBooks and Chromebooks from major vendors, and the adapter is backwards compatible with earlier HDMI versions. Buyers who need a bi-directional solution or a longer reach without an extension cable should look elsewhere.
