As technology advances, the demand for higher quality resolution continues to increase, and Cable Matters has answered the call with their 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4 Adapter (Mini DP to DP 1.4) in black. This lightweight and portable Mini DisplayPort 1.4 to DisplayPort 1.4 cable adapter connects a Mini DisplayPort (Mini DP or mDP)/Thunderbolt 2 port compatible computer to a monitor or projector with DisplayPort.

One impressive feature of this Thunderbolt 2 to DisplayPort adapter is its ability to transmit both audio and video from the computer or tablet to an HD monitor display. This DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort adapter also supports 8K (7680x4320) and 4K (3840x2160) ultra HD resolution. It is important to note that a separate DisplayPort cable (sold separately) is required for this DP to Mini DP adapter.

In terms of audio, this MiniDisplay to DisplayPort cable adapter provides the option for uncompressed digital 7.1, 5.1, or 2 channels for flawless audio pass-thru. This level of audio quality is typically reserved for high-end sound systems, but now it is available for computers and tablets, thanks to the Cable Matters 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4 Adapter.

Additionally, this adapter has molded strain-relief for long life and ergonomically designed treads for easy plugging and unplugging. The gold-plated connectors resist corrosion, provide rigidity, and improve the signal performance of the Mini Display Port to Display Port.
