The P582-012-HD-V2A DisplayPort 1.2a to HDMI Active Adapter Cable (M/M) connects a DisplayPort-enabled PC or Mac to the HDMI port on a 4K monitor, projector or television. With a DisplayPort male connector on one end and a gold-plated high-grip HDMI male connector on the other, this cable requires no separate power adapter. It lets you continue using an existing 4K HDMI display without the extra expense of buying a new DisplayPort monitor. Recommended for displaying crystal-clear video on a large monitor or digital sign, this cable supports HDMI 2.0 with full UHD video resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 (4K x 2K) at 60 Hz. The P582-012-HD-V2A also supports rich, full audio (if your DisplayPort card supports audio passthrough) and the latest HDCP 2.2 standards. Because it's an active adapter, the 12-foot P582-012-HD-V2A is compatible with Single-Mode and Dual-Mode (DP++) DisplayPort output. It's perfect for use with graphics cards, such as AMD Eyefinity, that don't output DP++ signals. The corrosion-resistant gold-plated HDMI connector and contacts provide maximum conductivity and minimize data loss. Its special high-grip plug prevents a loose or accidentally disconnected cable from causing picture loss. Integral strain relief with ridges on each end gives the cable extra flexibility, reduces stress, and helps the cable and connectors move freely without cracking.
