BENFEI 8K DisplayPort to DisplayPort 10ft cable

This DisplayPort cable from BENFEI is made for connecting desktops or laptops to high-resolution monitors and projectors, offering higher refresh rates and smooth video for gaming, content creation, and multi-monitor setups. It supports up to 8K at 60Hz and high-refresh 4K modes, making it useful when you need crisp image detail or fluid motion on compatible displays.

Key Points

This cable is VESA certified and designed as a bidirectional DisplayPort to DisplayPort link, so either end can be used with source and display devices. The DisplayPort connector features a latch with a release button to keep the connection secure and to prevent accidental unplugging. According to the manufacturer, the cable transmits both audio and video, with support for multi-channel digital audio passthrough up to 7.1, 5.1, or stereo uncompressed formats.

Technical Specifications

• Name: BENFEI 8K DisplayPort to DisplayPort 10 Feet Cable
• Length: - 10 feet (approximately 3 meters)
• Maximum resolution: - 8K@60Hz, also supports 4K@144Hz and 4K@120Hz according to the manufacturer
• High refresh support: - 2K@240Hz listed among supported modes
• Construction: - Gold-plated connectors with bare copper conductors and braided shielding

Advantages

The braided shielding and copper conductors aim to reduce signal interference and improve durability for regular use. Gold-plated connectors help maintain a reliable contact surface over time, which is useful in setups where cables are connected and disconnected occasionally. Because the cable carries both audio and video signals, it simplifies tidy desktop arrangements by avoiding separate audio cabling.

Usage Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this cable with devices and monitors that explicitly support the specified resolutions and refresh rates. When connecting a high-refresh gaming monitor, confirm the graphics card output and driver settings match the target resolution and refresh rate. The latch mechanism secures the connection during movement or cable strain, but pressing the release button is required before unplugging.

Note that actual displayed resolution and refresh rate depend on the capabilities of your source device, monitor, and graphics drivers, and may vary. If your equipment does not support 8K or the high refresh modes listed by the manufacturer, the cable will operate at the highest mutually supported mode.
