Description

StarTech MDP2HD4KS Active Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter

Overview

The StarTech MDP2HD4KS is an active adapter designed to convert a Mini DisplayPort 1.2 output to an HDMI 1.4 input. This is critical for connecting modern laptops, workstations, or graphics cards with Mini DisplayPort outputs to legacy or standard HDMI displays, projectors, or monitors. It ensures compatibility for video and audio transmission, solving the common problem of incompatible port types in presentation or workstation setups. The adapter supports 4K resolution at a 30Hz refresh rate, providing clear visuals for presentations and general computing tasks, and also handles 7.1 channel audio passthrough.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with devices featuring a Mini DisplayPort 1.2 output, such as many Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Apple laptops and desktops. The output is HDMI 1.4, meaning it will connect to any display or projector with an HDMI input. It supports HDCP 1.4 for protected content playback and DPCP. It is designed to work with systems requiring a Mini DisplayPort source to connect to an HDMI sink.

Installation Notes

The adapter operates within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F) and can be stored between -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). It requires an operating humidity level between 10% and 85% RH. The connector plating is nickel for durability and signal integrity.
