🧠📺 DisplayPort • HDMI Adapter

This adapter converts a DisplayPort signal into HDMI, allowing you to connect a DisplayPort-equipped device (like a GPU or laptop) to an HDMI display. It’s ideal for setups where the source uses DisplayPort and the destination only accepts HDMI.

🧠 Signal Format Notes
⚙️ DisplayPort and HDMI both carry digital video + audio
📡 Supports up to 4K@60Hz, HDR, HDCP 2.2 (adapter-dependent)
🔁 Adapter is unidirectional—DisplayPort source → HDMI display only
🔊 Audio supported if source device outputs audio over DisplayPort
🧠 Active adapters may be required for high resolutions or older HDMI displays
 
⚠️ Things to Watch Out For
🚫 Not bidirectional—won’t work HDMI → DisplayPort
🔌 Mini DisplayPort ≠ full-size DisplayPort—check connector type
🧯 Some adapters require external power for active conversion
📉 HDMI displays may default to lower refresh rates—check settings
🧪 HDCP-protected content may not play on non-compliant displays
 
🛠️ Quick Tips for Beginners
🧠 Confirm your DisplayPort device supports audio if needed
🔍 Use active adapter for 4K@60Hz or long-distance runs
🧲 Choose gold-plated connectors for better durability
🧼 Clean ports gently—dust can cause flickering or sync issues
🏷️ Label adapter direction—DisplayPort → HDMI only
