Tripp Lite P582-006-V2-ACT DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI active cable 6 ft

Active DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI cable

This 6 ft active adapter cable carries DisplayPort 1.2 video and audio from a computer to an HDMI-equipped monitor, projector or TV. The built-in active circuitry converts both Single-Mode and Dual-Mode (DP++) signals, so it works with graphics cards that do not output DP++ natively. Gold-plated connectors and a latching DisplayPort plug provide a secure, low-resistance link. Ideal for digital-signage installs or expanding a desktop onto a large UHD display.

Suits PCs without DP++ output and fixed UHD screens

The active design makes this cable a reliable choice for systems — such as certain AMD Eyefinity configurations — that only emit Single-Mode DisplayPort and cannot drive a passive dongle. It supports resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 and carries HDCP-protected content with audio. Buyers who need a longer run, a DisplayPort input on the display side, or a pure fibre-optic link for greater distance should look at a different solution.

Check source port type

Verify that the computer has a full-size DisplayPort output; this cable will not fit Mini DisplayPort or USB-C alternatives without a separate adapter. Confirm that a 6 ft length spans the gap between the graphics card and the HDMI panel without strain. Ensure the display accepts the desired resolution and refresh rate over its HDMI input, and that HDCP support is present if protected media playback is required.
