Ultra HD 16K@60Hz

The DPLink-16K supports a maximum resolution of 16K at 60Hz, making it suitable for extremely high-resolution display applications when paired with compatible hardware.

A regional Promate listing additionally specifies support for 16K@60Hz, 10K@60Hz, 8K@60Hz, 4K@165Hz, and 2K@165Hz.

80Gbps DisplayPort 2.0 Bandwidth

The DPLink-16K provides a maximum bandwidth of 80Gbps, giving it substantially more transmission capacity than previous-generation DisplayPort connections. Promate describes its 80Gbps bandwidth as nearly 3× that of DisplayPort 1.4.

This high bandwidth makes the cable suitable for:

• Ultra-high-resolution displays
• High-refresh-rate gaming monitors
• Gaming PCs
• Workstations
• Professional displays
• Video production setups
• Multi-purpose desktop environments

Dynamic HDR Support

Dynamic HDR support allows compatible source devices and displays to deliver HDR information dynamically, helping optimize image characteristics on a scene-by-scene or frame-by-frame basis.

High-Resolution Gaming

In addition to its maximum 16K resolution, the DPLink-16K is suitable for high-resolution PC gaming.

A Promate regional product specification lists support for:

• 16K @ 60Hz
• 10K @ 60Hz
• 8K @ 60Hz
• 4K @ 165Hz
• 2K / 1440p @ 165Hz
• AMD FreeSync
• NVIDIA G-SYNC
• Dynamic HDR
• HDCP 2.2

Actual refresh-rate and resolution availability depends on the graphics card, monitor, DisplayPort implementation, and display settings.

Gold-Plated Connectors

The DPLink-16K uses gold-plated, corrosion-resistant connectors designed to maintain reliable contact and signal transmission during everyday use.

Secure Clip Lock

The DisplayPort connectors feature a secure clip-lock mechanism to help prevent the cable from being accidentally disconnected from compatible DisplayPort sockets.

This is particularly useful for:

• Desktop gaming PCs
• Workstations
• Permanently installed monitors
• Professional display setups

Super-Slim 2-Meter Cable

The cable features a super-slim design that makes routing it around a desk or entertainment setup easier.

• Cable Length: 2 meters
• Approximately 6.6 feet
• Slim and portable construction
• Suitable for desk and workstation installations

Specifications

Promate's current technical specifications confirm the 2-meter length, 80Gbps transfer rate, DisplayPort 2.0 interface, and maximum 16K@60Hz resolution.

Wide Compatibility

The DPLink-16K is designed for devices equipped with compatible full-size DisplayPort connections, including:

• Gaming PCs
• Desktop PCs
• Workstations
• Graphics Cards
• Gaming Monitors
• Professional Monitors
• High-resolution displays
• Projectors with DisplayPort
• Compatible Lenovo computers
• Compatible HP computers
• Compatible Mac computers with DisplayPort output

It supports Windows 11/10/8/7 and macOS X 10.2 or later, according to Promate's technical documentation.

Important Compatibility Note

Despite some retailer titles mentioning MacBook Pro, this cable has full-size DisplayPort connectors on both ends. Most modern MacBook Pro models use USB-C/Thunderbolt rather than a full-size DisplayPort socket, so they would require an appropriate adapter or a different USB-C-to-DisplayPort cable.

The DPLink-16K itself is a:

DisplayPort Male → DisplayPort Male cable.

Also, achieving 16K@60Hz or other high-resolution/high-refresh modes requires both the source GPU and the connected display to support the required DisplayPort mode.

Best For
