DisplayPort cable engineered to deliver up to 16K@60Hz, plus extremely high refresh rates for gaming and professional workflows. The UGREEN DisplayPort Cable targets gamers, streamers and creatives who need sharp visuals and reliable signal integrity. Is that level of capability necessary for most users, or only for systems with the latest GPUs and monitors?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Image Quality: Supports up to 16K@60Hz, 8K@240Hz and 4K@480Hz
  • Best for: High-refresh-rate gamers, streamers and creative professionals using DisplayPort-equipped systems
  • Not ideal for: Setups that only have HDMI or Mini DisplayPort outputs

DP 2.1 cable rated to 80Gbps bandwidth with HDR, HDCP 2.3 and VRR support. Robust build includes triple shielding, 28AWG tinned copper conductors and a nylon-braided jacket for durability.


Blazing visual fidelity - with DP 2.1 80Gbps bandwidth

DisplayPort 2.1 enables a maximum bandwidth of 80Gbps, supporting resolutions such as 16K@60Hz and high refresh modes like 8K@240Hz and 4K@480Hz, while remaining backward compatible with DP 1.4 and 1.2.

Higher-resolution monitors and high-refresh panels run at native spec for crisp, fluid images suited to gaming and detailed creative work.

Smoother gameplay and lower latency - with FreeSync, G-Sync, VRR and ALLM support

Support for adaptive sync technologies, Variable Refresh Rate and Auto Low Latency Mode reduces tearing and synchronises frame output between GPU and display; HDR, HDCP 2.3, eARC and common surround codecs are supported.

Frame pacing improves in fast-paced titles, reducing visual artefacts and helping maintain responsiveness during gameplay.

Robust, long-lasting connection - with braided jacket, triple shielding and aluminium housing

Constructed from 28AWG tinned copper conductors with tin plating and triple shielding to resist electromagnetic interference, paired with a strong nylon-braided outer jacket and aluminium alloy connector housings for heat dissipation.

Durable construction resists wear from regular plugging and helps preserve signal quality over time for reliable daily use.

✨ The 4 Key Reasons for UGREEN DisplayPort Cable
  1. MST & Daisy Chain support - Connect multiple monitors without extra hubs for improved workflow
  2. Triple shielding & 28AWG copper - Lower interference and consistent signal for stable frame rates
  3. Aluminium alloy housing - Faster heat dissipation to maintain performance under load
  4. Backward compatibility with DP 1.4/1.2 - Plugs into older setups without requiring new graphics cards

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this cable support 16K resolution?

A: Yes, supports up to 16K@60Hz and also supports very high refresh rates such as 8K@240Hz and 4K@480Hz under the DisplayPort 2.1 specification.

Q: Can I use the cable with HDMI or Mini DisplayPort ports?

A: No, not compatible with HDMI or Mini DisplayPort; a native DisplayPort socket is required on both ends.

Q: Can I drive multiple monitors from a single connection?

A: Yes, MST and daisy-chain support allow mirroring or extending across multiple monitors for multi-screen setups.

🏆 Our Verdict

Best suited for gamers, streamers and creative professionals using high-resolution, high-refresh displays. The combination of DP 2.1's 80Gbps bandwidth and a rugged, triple-shielded build delivers future-proofed performance and reliable signal integrity. While over-capable for basic setups, the specification and durability make it a sensible long-term choice for demanding systems.
