Overview

The Monoprice Select Series DisplayPort 1.2a Cable 10-Pack (Model 141278) is designed for buyers who need multiple short DisplayPort cables for workstation deployments, lab environments, or multi-monitor desktop setups. Each cable measures just 1.5 feet, making them ideal for configurations where the display sits on or very near the desk—such as monitor arm mounts, trading desks, or editing bays—where longer cables would create unnecessary clutter. Despite the compact length, each cable fully complies with the DisplayPort 1.2a specification, supporting data speeds up to 21.6Gbps, resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160p), and 3D video output.

All ten cables feature locking connectors to prevent accidental detachment, and they support both DPCP and HDCP content protection, ensuring compatibility with protected content streams. Backwards compatibility with DisplayPort 1.1 and 1.1a means these cables will work with older monitors and graphics cards as well. For IT managers or AV professionals equipping multiple stations at once, this 10-pack offers a cost-effective way to standardize on reliable, high-resolution display cabling without buying cables individually.

Key Features

Twice as Fast: DisplayPort 1.2a is up to twice as fast as DisplayPort 1.1a, allowing for PC and HDTV resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160p), as well as 3D support.

Displayport 1.2a Compliant: Compliant with the DisplayPort 1.2a specification, this cable is also backwards compatible with DisplayPort 1.1/1.1a. Supporting data speeds up to 21.6Gbps, this cable transmits uncompressed audio and deep color depth twice as fast as the previous specification.

4K Capable: Broad compatibility with computers, phones, and tablets with DisplayPort or Mini DisplayPort video output and displays up to 4K resolution.

Connect a DisplayPort enabled computer to a high definition display or projector.

Supports DPCP (DisplayPort Content Protection) and HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
