UGREEN 2 m Active DisplayPort to HDMI Cable, 4K60 (15774)

Overview

The UGREEN 15774 is a 2 m active DisplayPort to HDMI cable that connects a PC, workstation, dock or graphics card with a full-size DisplayPort output to an HDMI TV, monitor or projector at 4K at 60 Hz, with sound. The 2 m length suits a PC under the desk or a TV a short distance from the computer. It works one way only, from DisplayPort to HDMI, and the conversion electronics sit in the aluminium alloy plug housing, so no power lead is needed.

Is it right for you?

• Suits a desktop or dock with a full-size DisplayPort output feeding a 4K HDMI screen at a smooth 60 Hz, or a 1080p screen at up to 120 Hz.
• Direction is fixed: DisplayPort source to HDMI display. It cannot connect an HDMI games console or player to a DisplayPort monitor.
• One cable drives one screen. A multi-monitor desk needs a capable output and a cable for each display, within the graphics card’s limits.
• The source end must be full-size DisplayPort. It does not fit Mini DisplayPort or USB-C sockets.

Key features

• 2 m long: full-size DisplayPort male to HDMI Type-A male, as one complete cable with no separate HDMI lead.
• Active conversion built into the connector housing, with no separate power connector.
• Modes: 4K at 60 Hz, 2K at 60 Hz and 1080p at 120 Hz.
• Carries HDMI audio, including 2.0, 5.1 and 7.1 channel paths, when the source and display support them.
• Carries HDR signalling when the whole path, from source to display, supports it.
• Pure copper core, cotton mesh braided cable, aluminium alloy housings and nickel-plated connectors.
• Mirror or extended desktop is chosen in the computer’s display settings.

What else you need

A full-size DisplayPort video output on the computer, dock or graphics card and an HDMI input on the TV, monitor, projector or AV device. No driver, software or power supply.

Before you buy

• One way only: it does not work from an HDMI source to a DisplayPort monitor, and it does not turn an HDMI console into a DisplayPort source.
• It does not add VRR, FreeSync, G-SYNC, DSC or eARC, and it does not guarantee a particular HDCP version.
• A printed maximum is a ceiling, not a forced mode: the source, graphics hardware, display and every device in between must share the resolution and refresh rate you want.
• If HDR looks wrong, turn HDR off to confirm a stable SDR picture, then check HDR support in the source, the content, the display input mode and the operating system settings.
• No outdoor, in-wall, plenum, direct-burial, LSZH or fire-resistance rating is stated.
