Long-Distance 8K Without External Power

This active cable boosts the signal internally. You avoid the cost and clutter of external repeaters. It delivers reliable 8K 60Hz or 4K 120Hz up to 50ft. In practice, this supports digital signage or multi-monitor arrays. The aluminum mylar foil shielding minimises EMI interference.

Full DisplayPort 1.4 Feature Support

The cable supports HBR3 bandwidth and Display Stream Compression 1.2. This ensures high frame rates without signal loss. It also handles HDR10 for enhanced colour depth. Because it supports MST, you can daisy-chain monitors. Backward compatibility covers 5K and 4K setups.

Durable Construction for UK Installations

The TPE jacket resists wear from tight bends. Robust strain reliefs protect the connector joints. Gold-plated latching connectors prevent accidental disconnection. The 24/28 AWG copper conductors maintain signal integrity. Operating temperature ranges from 0 to 50 °C.
