HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI Cables for Every Display

Video cables carry digital video and audio signals between GPUs, laptops, media players, and displays using HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI connections. The lineup from StarTech, Eaton's Tripp Lite line, and C2G by Legrand covers every standard from legacy DVI to 8K-ready HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.0, all part of the broader cables catalog.

Video Cables for Every Display Setup

  • Office workstations — DisplayPort cables connecting dual and triple monitors with daisy-chain support for minimal desk clutter
  • Conference rooms — HDMI cables from laptops and media players to ceiling-mounted projectors and wall-mounted displays
  • Home theater — Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cables rated for 4K 120Hz and 8K 60Hz for televisions and streaming devices
  • Digital signage — long-run active HDMI or fiber optic cables reaching displays mounted far from media players in retail and commercial spaces
  • Gaming setups — DisplayPort 1.4 and 2.0 cables unlocking variable refresh rate and high frame rates on compatible monitors and GPUs

Choosing the Right Video Cable

Match the cable standard and version to the ports on your source device and display. HDMI 2.0 delivers 4K at 60Hz with 18 Gbps bandwidth, sufficient for most office and home theater use. HDMI 2.1 raises throughput to 48 Gbps for 4K 120Hz and 8K 60Hz. DisplayPort 1.4 delivers 32.4 Gbps for 4K 120Hz with DSC compression, and DP 2.0 pushes 80 Gbps for uncompressed 8K. HDMI is the better choice for televisions, projectors, and A/V receivers because it carries audio with ARC/eARC support. DisplayPort is preferred for PC monitors needing adaptive sync, higher refresh rates, or multi-monitor daisy chains.

Cable Length and Active vs. Passive

Passive HDMI cables carry 4K reliably up to roughly 15 feet, and passive DisplayPort cables hold full bandwidth up to about 6 feet. Beyond those distances, active cables or fiber optic cables maintain signal integrity over runs of 50 feet or more. Long-run active HDMI cables are common for projector installations and digital signage where the media player sits far from the display. Always size the cable to the run and verify the active cable supports the resolution and refresh rate you need.
