Connect your DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort sources and devices with this bi-directional cable from Monoprice!. This cable has a standard sized DisplayPort (DP) connector on one end and a Mini DisplayPort (MDP) connector on the other. The cable is bi-directional which means that you can use a DP source with a MDP monitor or a MDP source with a DP monitor. The conductors are made of pure copper and the connectors are gold-plated for improved connectivity and corrosion resistance. Additionally it is well-shielded to prevent stray electromagnetic (EM) and radio frequency (RF) signals from interfering with your data. Important Note! This cable supports the DisplayPort version 1. 1 which does not support audio and has a maximum data transmission rate of 8. 64 Gbps.
