ADNet HDMI to DISPLAY PORT 1.8M 4 K 60Hz Converter Cable ADP-HD-1191

The ADNet ADP-HD-1191 is a specialized unidirectional converter cable designed to bridge the gap between an HDMI output source and a DisplayPort monitor.

It is important to note that this cable is active, meaning it contains an internal chipset to convert the signal from HDMI to DisplayPort—a process that doesn’t happen naturally with passive cables.

 Key Technical Specifications

 Core Features & Performance

• Ultra HD Support: It supports a crisp 4K resolution at a smooth 60Hz refresh rate. This is ideal for gaming, video editing, or high-definition streaming where motion clarity is essential.

• Active Conversion: Unlike “DisplayPort to HDMI” cables (which are common), the “HDMI to DisplayPort” conversion is technically more complex. This cable handles that conversion internally.

• USB Power Tail: You’ll notice a small USB cable branching off the HDMI end. This provides the necessary voltage to the conversion chip. Crucial Tip: Always plug this into a USB port on your PC or a wall adapter, or you likely won’t get a signal.

• Plug and Play: No drivers are required. It works across Windows, macOS, and Linux out of the box.

# Critical Usage Warning

The most common mistake with this cable is trying to use it in reverse.

• YES: Connecting a Laptop/Console (HDMI) to a DisplayPort Monitor.

• NO: Connecting a DisplayPort PC to an HDMI TV.

Note: This cable is perfect for PS5, Xbox Series X, or modern laptops that need to connect to high-end gaming monitors that only support their full 4K/60Hz specs via the DisplayPort input.
