DisplayPort cable Lindy 36522 — 3 m, DisplayPort to DisplayPort, black

The Lindy 36522 DisplayPort cable is a 3 m DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort connection designed for video and audio transmission between DP-compatible devices. Part of Lindy’s Lines cable connectivity concept, this Black Line DisplayPort 2.1 cable supports the full 80 Gbps bandwidth of DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR20) over a passive copper construction. The cable features a 7 mm diameter, robust ABS connector housings and compact connector dimensions of 20.7 × 42.6 × 13 mm. It is supplied as a single piece in a polybag and complies with RoHS, REACH and UL standards.

Advantages

The cable supports very high resolutions and refresh rates, including uncompressed 8K at 60 Hz 10-bit 4:4:4 and, when combined with Display Stream Compression (DSC), up to 16K at 60 Hz 4:4:4 10-bit. It is capable of transmitting multichannel audio (up to 32 channels) including Dolby TrueHD. Construction details include triple shielding and 30 AWG bare copper conductors to maintain signal integrity and reduce susceptibility to interference. Connectors are fitted with 24K gold plated contacts to improve corrosion resistance and reliability.

Suitable for

• Connecting monitors to PCs, laptops or graphics cards for high-resolution display output
• High-refresh-rate gaming rigs and external GPUs requiring low-latency video transfer
• Professional workflows such as virtual production, simulation and medical imaging
• Home and small office setups demanding reliable DP 2.1 connectivity

How to use

Insert one DisplayPort connector into the DisplayPort output of your source device (PC, laptop, graphics card) and the other connector into the DisplayPort input of your monitor or display. Ensure connectors are fully seated and secured by the housing. For optimal performance with high resolutions or refresh rates, use a direct connection without adapters and verify that both the source and display support DisplayPort 2.1 features such as UHBR20 and DSC. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the recommended bend radius to maintain signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

For sustained high-bandwidth use (4K at very high refresh rates, uncompressed 8K or DSC-enabled 16K), verify that both connected devices support the required DisplayPort 2.1 modes and that system graphics settings are configured for the desired resolution and color depth. Avoid tying the cable tightly or running it alongside heavy power cables to minimize interference. Store in a dry environment and handle connectors by the housing rather than pulling on the cable jacket.
