Description

StarTech DP21V-1M-DP54-CABLE DisplayPort 2.1 Cable

Overview

The StarTech DP21V-1M-DP54-CABLE is a 1-meter (3.3 ft) DisplayPort 2.1 certified cable designed to handle the high bandwidth demands of modern displays and graphics cards. It supports UHBR13.5 data rates, enabling resolutions up to 10K at 30Hz or 8K at 60Hz uncompressed, and significantly higher refresh rates with Display Stream Compression (DSC). This cable is ideal for professional workstations, high-end gaming setups, or any environment requiring maximum visual fidelity and smooth motion, such as video editing suites or simulation setups.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any DisplayPort 2.1 enabled devices, including graphics cards, monitors, and docking stations that support UHBR13.5 (54Gbps) data rates. It also functions with older DisplayPort versions (1.4, 1.2) but will be limited by the capabilities of the lowest version in the chain. It supports up to 32 audio channels, ensuring full audio passthrough for multi-channel sound systems.

Installation Notes

The cable features straight DisplayPort connectors on both ends, plated with nickel for improved durability and signal integrity. The TPE jacket material offers flexibility, while the aluminum-mylar foil and braid shielding minimize electromagnetic interference, crucial for maintaining signal quality over the 1-meter length. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
