Description

StarTech DP21-3F-DP80-CABLE 3ft DisplayPort 2.1 Cable

Overview

The StarTech DP21-3F-DP80-CABLE is a 3-foot DisplayPort 2.1 cable engineered for high-bandwidth video and data transmission. It supports VESA's UHBR20 standard, enabling resolutions up to 16K at 60Hz with DSC, or 4K at 240Hz. This cable is ideal for connecting high-performance monitors, docking stations, or graphics cards in demanding professional environments, including video editing suites, high-fidelity gaming setups, or advanced surveillance workstations requiring maximum visual fidelity and refresh rates.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device featuring a DisplayPort 2.1 or earlier (DP 1.4, 1.2) output and input. It supports VESA UHBR20, HDR, MST, DSC 1.2, and HDCP 2.2, ensuring broad compatibility with modern displays and source devices. For optimal performance and to achieve 16K resolution, both the source device and the display must support DisplayPort 2.1 and DSC.

Installation Notes

The cable features latching DisplayPort connectors, providing a secure physical connection that prevents accidental disconnection. The 30 AWG wire gauge ensures signal integrity for high-speed data transfer. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
