Description

StarTech DP12-CABLE-6FTW 6ft DisplayPort 1.2 Cable

Overview

The StarTech DP12-CABLE-6FTW is a 6-foot (1.8-meter) white DisplayPort 1.2 cable designed for reliable video and audio transmission. Its VESA certification ensures compliance with industry standards, making it suitable for connecting high-resolution displays to workstations, servers, or surveillance systems. The integrated latching connectors prevent accidental disconnection, crucial for maintaining signal integrity in demanding environments. This cable supports up to 4K resolution at 60Hz and a data transfer rate of 21.6Gbps, ensuring smooth playback of high-bandwidth video streams.

Compatibility

This DisplayPort 1.2 cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard DisplayPort output and input, including graphics cards, monitors, projectors, and docking stations. It supports 7.1 channel audio pass-through, making it suitable for multi-channel audio setups. The 21.6Gbps bandwidth supports resolutions like 4K (3840x2160) at 60Hz, 1440p (2560x1440) at 144Hz, and 1080p (1920x1080) at 240Hz, covering a wide range of display requirements.

Installation Notes

The cable features nickel-plated connectors for enhanced durability and signal conductivity. Its TPE jacket material offers flexibility and resistance to wear, while the aluminum-mylar foil and braid shielding minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring a clean signal. The 28 AWG wire gauge supports high data rates without signal degradation over its 6-foot length. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
