Overview

The Monoprice 141280 is a 10-pack of 6-foot DisplayPort 1.2a cables built for environments where multiple monitors or frequent cable replacements are the norm. Each cable supports data transfer speeds up to 21.6 Gbps, enough bandwidth to carry 4K video at 3840x2160p along with uncompressed audio and deep color depth. The locking connectors on each end snap into the DisplayPort socket and stay put, reducing the risk of signal dropout caused by loose connections in shared workspaces or equipment racks.

Compliance with the DisplayPort 1.2a specification also means support for High Bit Rate 2 (HBR2) and 3D video, while backwards compatibility with DisplayPort 1.1 and 1.1a ensures the cables work with older graphics cards and monitors. Both DPCP and HDCP content protection are supported, so protected content plays without issue. For IT departments, AV integrators, or anyone managing multiple display setups, buying in a 10-pack simplifies procurement and keeps spare cables on hand when they are needed.

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).
