Description

StarTech DP21V-6F-DP54-CABLE DisplayPort 2.1 Cable

Overview

The StarTech DP21V-6F-DP54-CABLE is a 6-foot DisplayPort 2.1 certified cable designed to deliver the full bandwidth required for next-generation displays and high-performance graphics cards. This cable supports up to 54Gbps, enabling resolutions like 10K at 30Hz or 8K at 60Hz without compression, and even higher with DSC. It's ideal for demanding applications such as multi-monitor video walls, high-refresh-rate gaming setups, or professional video editing workstations where maximum data throughput is critical. The DP21V-6F-DP54-CABLE ensures reliable signal transmission for critical surveillance monitoring or complex workstation environments.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device featuring a DisplayPort 2.1 or earlier (DP 1.4, DP 1.2) output and input. This includes modern graphics cards from NVIDIA (e.g., GeForce RTX 40 series) and AMD (e.g., Radeon RX 7000 series), as well as DisplayPort 2.1 certified monitors and docking stations. It is suitable for connecting to high-resolution displays used with NVRs or workstations running advanced video analytics software.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 7mm OD TPE jacket for flexibility and durability, with aluminum-mylar foil and braid shielding to mitigate EMI interference. Operating temperatures range from 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F), and storage temperatures from -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F). The connector plating is nickel for corrosion resistance.
