Customers find value in the 6' DisplayPort to HDMI Cable's solid quality, broad compatibility, and ease of use. The HDMI cable is useful for aftermarket needs and the length is suitable for many setups. However, some customers have reported the cable can heat up during use, and it is a uni-directional cord. A few customers have also noted limitations with resolution and refresh rate.

This dispaly port to HDMI cable was exactly what I needed. I was setting up a home office and needed a dual display setup for my work laptop. My job requires the use of several programs at once: Outlook, MS Teams, Salesforce, etc. However, my laptop hub only had one HDMI port and display port. This cable allowed for the use of both displays where it would otherwise be impossible.

IMHO, this is a 'passive' cable and well made. It should work fine if your DisplayPort is version 1.3 or higher. Sometimes known as 'Dual Mode' or 'DP++'. My DisplayPort was version 1.2 (older) and this cable did not work for me. I had to get an 'Active' cable adapter which has a small circuit board (1.5"x1.5"x0.5") on the end of it which converts the signal from DisplayPort to HDMI. That worked on my version 1.2.

An excellent displayport to hdmi cable for sure! It's very pricy, but worth it because of the next gen ports(I believe it was display port 1.4 to hdmi 2.0? correct me if I'm wrong). I use this cable to connect to my graphics card in my pc to one of my old tv's that I use as a second monitor which I did not expect at all. Even though it's overkill for a connection between my pc and tv(second monitor) it's still a very capable connector!
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear the item has been a valuable addition to your multi-monitor setup. It’s great to know it’s delivering both quality and functionality at a great price. We appreciate your support. Keith | Insignia Support

*Caution* when using a cable like this it is unidirectional unless if you have an active converter which this cable does not have. What I mean is, you will plug the displayport side into the GPU so it can do the conversion to HDMI. The cable does not work HDMI to displayport.
Quality, is excellent, the braiding of the cable is a very nice feature of the cable.

I'm not sure if the description was unclear or if I just didn't read closely enough, but this cable only works in the opposite direction that I needed it to. The DisplayPort end has to go into the computer and the HDMI end has to go to the monitor. To the cable's credit it is clearly labeled that this is the case. It does function just fine the correct way round, and with a HDMI switch did help me solve the problem I was trying to solve.

Had nothing but issues with this cable. Used on a PC with an RTX A4000, which has nothing but displayport and my monitor only supports HDMI. Monitor is running at 1920x1080@120Hz with HDR on. Had repeated disconnects, tried to re-connect the HDMI and Displayport sides to re-establish an image on my monitor. HDMI side was so hot that if I kept my fingers on the plug I would probably burn myself. Tried everything from lowering the resolution, turning down the refresh rate and turning HDR off. Nothing worked aside from a different brand 2.1 HDMI cable + Displayport 1.4 to HDMI converter.
