What this cable does

The StarTech MDP2HDMM2MB is a 6.56 ft passive converter cable that carries video and audio from a Mini DisplayPort 1.2 source to an HDMI 1.4 display. It combines the adapter and cable in one male-to-male assembly so no extra leads or power are required.

When to choose this over a separate adapter

It replaces a standalone Mini DisplayPort-to-HDMI dongle plus a separate HDMI cable, reducing connection points and desk clutter. The jump is worth it when you want a single permanent link between a laptop or tablet and a monitor, TV or projector.

Limits of the HDMI 1.4 link

The HDMI 1.4 interface caps video at 4K resolution and 30 Hz refresh, so higher refresh rates or deeper colour formats are not possible. Audio passes through as 7.1 surround, but the passive design means the source must supply enough signal power for the full 2.0 m run.
