Ugreen USB-C to DisplayPort 8K Cable 2m-UG- 25158
The Ugreen UG-25158 cable delivers 8K resolution video transmission from USB-C devices to DisplayPort monitors. This 2-meter cable implements DisplayPort 1.4 specifications with 32.4 Gbps bandwidth capacity. The unidirectional design connects USB Type-C sources to DisplayPort displays through male-to-male connectors.
Video Signal Architecture
The UG-25158 supports Ultra HD 8K resolution at 7680 x 4320 pixels with 60Hz refresh rate. Additionally, the cable handles 4K content at up to 240Hz for high-frame-rate applications. The DisplayPort 1.4 protocol enables bandwidth 50% higher than DisplayPort 1.2 specifications.
The signal path maintains digital integrity through triple shielding construction. Furthermore, Display Stream Compression (DSC) technology allows transmission of higher resolutions through existing bandwidth limitations. Forward Error Correction (FEC) minimizes data corruption during transmission.
