ALOGIC ULMDPDP02-SGR Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 2 m

The ALOGIC Ultra 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable V1.4 is a high-performance solution designed to bridge the gap between Mini DisplayPort-equipped computers and standard DisplayPort monitors. Engineered to meet VESA DisplayPort 1.4 standards, this cable supports resolutions up to 8K at 60Hz, ensuring crisp, fluid visuals for professional and personal use. Its robust construction and advanced technical features make it a reliable choice for demanding multimedia environments.

This cable excels through its superior build quality, featuring a core reinforced with synthetic fibers and a durable thermoplastic jacket. The metal alloy housing and strain-relief design provide exceptional longevity, protecting the cable from daily wear and tear. Furthermore, the integrated latching mechanism with an easy-release button ensures a secure connection that remains stable even in complex setups, while allowing for convenient one-handed operation.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this cable is its support for high-bandwidth data transmission, reaching up to 32.4 Gbps, which enables seamless 8K video output. The inclusion of Dynamic HDR and Display Stream Compression 1.2 ensures that color accuracy and image clarity are maintained at the highest levels. Additionally, the cable is built for durability, utilizing premium materials that resist fraying and physical damage, while the locking connector design prevents accidental disconnections during critical tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to high-resolution external monitors
• Professional graphic design and video editing workstations
• Home office setups requiring stable multi-monitor configurations
• Multimedia entertainment systems supporting 8K content

This cable may not be suitable for devices that do not feature a Mini DisplayPort output, such as those relying exclusively on HDMI or USB-C ports without an appropriate adapter. It is also not intended for use with legacy equipment that does not support the DisplayPort 1.4 standard, as some advanced features like 8K resolution or high-bit-rate audio may be limited by the connected hardware.

Key specifications

• Maximum resolution: 8K at 60Hz
• DisplayPort version: 1.4
• Bandwidth: 32.4 Gbps (HBR3)
• Cable length: 2 meters
• Features: Dynamic HDR, DSC 1.2, HDCP 2.2, MST support
• Connector type: Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort with locking latch

To use the cable, simply insert the Mini DisplayPort connector into your computer or laptop output and the standard DisplayPort connector into your monitor or projector. Ensure the latch is fully engaged for a secure connection. When disconnecting, press the easy-release button on the DisplayPort connector to retract the latches before pulling the cable out of the port.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your source device has a Mini DisplayPort output
• Check if your monitor supports the DisplayPort 1.4 standard to utilize full 8K capabilities
• Ensure the 2-meter length is sufficient for your desk or workstation layout
• Confirm compatibility with your operating system for multi-stream transport (MST) features

For optimal performance, ensure that both your source device and display drivers are updated to the latest versions. Avoid bending the cable at sharp angles near the connectors to maintain the integrity of the internal wiring over time.
