The StarTech.com 6ft (2m) VESA Certified Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4 Cable – 8K 60Hz HBR3 HDR – Super UHD mDP to DP 1.4 Cord – Slim (34 AWG) Ultra HD 4K 120Hz -… is a professional-grade lead for UK users. It connects a Mini DisplayPort source to a DisplayPort 1.4 display. The key USP is certified 8K 60Hz performance with HBR3 bandwidth. This cable suits designers, engineers, and finance teams using compact workstations.

Slim 2m Cable with 34 AWG Conductors

This cable uses a slim 4.5 mm outer diameter with 34 AWG conductors. It fits tight desk setups and reduces cable strain. The PVC jacket with strain relief handles frequent bends. Because the lead is lightweight, routing is simple. In practice, this design supports clean installations in UK offices.

Key Technical Metrics

Reliable 8K and 4K Performance

This cable supports 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz. It uses HBR3 bandwidth and Display Stream Compression. HDR meta transport is supported for future standards. Because HDCP is included, protected content displays correctly. So you get high fidelity for video and design work.

Multi-Stream Transport and Audio

Multi-Stream Transport (MST) is supported for daisy-chaining monitors. The cable also supports 32 uncompressed audio channels. Sample rates up to 1536 kHz are covered. Forward Error Correction improves compressed video resilience. This is useful for complex multi-display setups.

Secure Latching and Shielding

The DisplayPort connector features a latching design. This helps prevent accidental disconnection in busy environments. The cable shielding uses aluminium mylar foil with braid. EMI shielding is further supported by the metal connector sub-structure. Because of this, signal integrity is maintained in busy UK offices.

Broad Hardware Compatibility

This Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable works with PC, Mac, and Microsoft Surface devices with mDP. It is also compatible with Thunderbolt 2 ports. It supports mDP 1.4 graphics cards including Radeon VII, SSG, WX x100, Pro and FirePro series. It also works with Nvidia Quadro P series. You should confirm your device has a Mini DisplayPort output.
