StarTech 5ft DisplayPort 2.1 Cable, VESA Certified DP80 DisplayPort Cable, 10K/8K 60Hz, 16K 60Hz/8K 240Hz w/DSC 1.2a, DP 2.1 Cord - DP21V-5F-DP80-CABLE

Connect an 8K/4K UHD DisplayPort monitor to a host computer or MST hub, using this VESA-Certified DisplayPort 2.1 DP80 Cable. This cable facilitates high bandwidth video and multi-channel audio and is ideal for 8K workstations, high performance GPUs, and dedicated AV applications including media production and content creation.

Seamless Compatibility

For seamless operation between DisplayPort-enabled devices, the DisplayPort 2.1 Cable is VESA Certified for guaranteed DP 2.1 and backward compatibility (DP 2.0/1.4/1.2). It supports G-Sync and FreeSync, enhancing Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) performance for optimal picture quality between high-capacity GPUs and supported displays.

Durable Design

This DisplayPort cable features a flexible TPE outer jacket that is tested to withstand 600 bending cycles at -/+60 degrees, and routes easily around corners and desk edges. Robust strain reliefs enable convenient positioning of the cable, and latching nickel-plated DP connectors attach securely to prevent accidental disconnection. The connectors are rated to operate beyond 10,000 insertions.
