How to use

Connect one DisplayPort connector to the video output of your source device (PC, laptop, graphics card) and the other connector to the DisplayPort input of your monitor, projector or AV receiver. Ensure connectors are firmly seated; active optical cables do not require external power in typical setups. Configure the output resolution and refresh rate in your operating system or graphics driver to match the supported modes of the connected display.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use compatible DisplayPort 1.4 devices and set the desired resolution and refresh rate in the GPU control panel. Avoid tight bending near the connectors and secure cable routing to prevent strain. If you experience handshake or EDID issues, verify driver updates and try reconnecting both ends.
