MacBook Pro Compatibility

The PrimeLink8K-500 uses standard full-size HDMI connectors on both ends.

MacBook Pro models equipped with an HDMI port can connect directly. MacBook models that only feature USB-C/Thunderbolt require a compatible USB-C/Thunderbolt-to-HDMI adapter or hub.

The maximum resolution and refresh rate also depend on the video-output capabilities of the specific MacBook Pro model.

Important Note

To achieve 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz, every component in the connection must support the required HDMI mode:

Compatible Source → PrimeLink8K-500 → Compatible Display

The final resolution and refresh rate will be limited by the lowest-capability device in the setup.

The cable itself does not increase the native resolution or refresh rate of a TV, monitor, console, or graphics card.
