ACT AK4081 DisplayPort cable 1 m Black

The ACT AK4081 DisplayPort cable is a 1 m black DisplayPort 2.1 DP80 (UHBR20) lead designed for high-bandwidth video and audio. It supports resolutions up to 10K@30Hz, 8K@60Hz and 4K@240Hz with a maximum throughput of 80 Gbps. The cable includes a snap-in (lockable) DisplayPort connector to reduce the risk of accidental disconnection and is suitable for demanding professional and consumer setups that require high refresh rates and color fidelity.

Advantages

The cable provides an 80 Gbps UHBR20 link with support for Display Stream Compression 1.2a (DSC) and HDCP 2.2, enabling high-resolution HDR video, multi-channel audio formats and stable signal transmission. Full copper conductors and gold‑plated contacts promote reliable connectivity and signal integrity over the 1 m length.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This 1 m DisplayPort 2.1 cable is not intended for long‑distance runs; signal repeaters or active cables are more appropriate for longer lengths. It also does not change the capabilities of connected devices — maximum achievable resolution and refresh rate depend on the GPU, display and their supported features such as DSC and HDCP.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to the DisplayPort output on your source device (for example a graphics card or media player) and the other end to the DisplayPort input of your monitor or display. Ensure the snap‑in connector clicks into place to secure the connection. Configure the display settings on your source device to select the desired resolution, refresh rate and HDR options; enable DSC or HDCP in device menus if required by the display and content.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable with devices that explicitly support DisplayPort 2.1 and UHBR20. When targeting 8K or 10K modes, enable DSC where available and update GPU and monitor firmware/drivers to the latest versions to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
