Mini DisplayPort 1.2 cable for 4K workflows

This three-foot male-to-male cable links Mini DisplayPort-equipped laptops or desktops to compatible monitors. It supports resolutions up to 3840x2160 at 60 Hz and is validated for Apple mini DisplayPort devices. The 1.2 specification enables a maximum HBR2 bandwidth of 21.6 Gbps for high-resolution video.

Practical limits of the Mini DisplayPort 1.2

The cable carries up to 21.6 Gbps, which caps usable resolution and refresh combinations at 3840x2160 60 Hz. Longer runs or higher refresh rates would exceed the HBR2 budget and require a different cable class. Only two connectors are present, so daisy-chaining or multi-stream transport is not possible with this single link.

Build quality and day-to-day connector implications

A compact Mini DisplayPort plug on each end fits tight port spacing on ultrabooks and all-in-one displays without blocking adjacent sockets. The three-foot length keeps desk routing tidy while reaching across a standard monitor stand. Male-to-male terminals mean both host and display must provide female Mini DisplayPort sockets.

Questions about this item

Is the 3 ft length right for a desk setup, or should I look for a longer cable?

At 3 ft the cable reaches from a laptop on the desk to a monitor on the same surface without excess slack.

What does the 3840x2160 @ 60Hz rating mean when I plug it into my laptop and display?

It means the link can carry a 4k image at 60 frames per second, provided both the source and the monitor support that mode.

The cable is labelled Mini DisplayPort 1.2 with 21.6 Gbps HBR2 — what does that cap in practice?

The 1.2 spec with HBR2 bandwidth limits the connection to 4k at 60Hz; higher refresh rates or resolutions would need a newer standard.
