StarTech.com 15 ft DisplayPort 1.2 Cable with Latches - 4K x 2K (4096 x 2160) @ 60Hz - DPCP & HDCP - Male to Male DP Video Monitor Cable (DISPLPORT15L), Black

There is a lot of confusion regarding display port cables and what to select for your purpose. Prior to purchasing, I contacted Star Tech for clarification on a 15ft version of this cable and whether it would work at 1080p at 144hz for a gaming monitor and got this response - "The DISPLPORT15L 15ft DisplayPort cable is certainly compliant with DisplayPort 1.2 HBR2 specifications with bandwidth up to 21.6Gbps. I do not suspect there will be any issues with running the DISPLPORT15L with a 1920x1080 monitor at 144Hz. The bandwidth required will be well below the 21.6Gbps of which the cable is capable. There will be no flicker with a 1920x1080@144Hz display due to the DISPLPORT15L." After receiving the cable, I have found that the cable works flawlessly with no flicker or drop off while gaming at the highest settings. I am very satisfied with this cable for my purposes and if you are looking at similar specs, then I would suggest this cable over the other brands currently available, as this is the only one I could locate after several hours of scanning forums, that is capable of 21.6Gbps.

This cable is advertised for 21.6 Gbps. I tried it first at 4k and 30 Hz which only requires 6.18 Gbps. I get a lot of flicker and a lot of desyncs. I then tried it at 60 Hz that requires 12.54 Ghz which is why I purchased the cable in the first place. All I get is a blank screen, it can't even sync up at all. I tried two cables, and I tried to reverse the cable so that the opposite ends were plugged in case of bad ground termination. There was no way I could get the cable to work at 60 Hz which is well within the advertised specification.I'll be returning the 3 cables I got as soon at Amazon's return form works for me.

For my display port 1.2, it worked and in my short use I did not come across the problems that other people are complaining about in reviews. Intermittently there may have been a lag, but too short to be noticeable. It does not have the fine quality of Apple but it worked.

The 15 foot cables worked great. Never had any issues do to longer length and were very easy to plugin and use.

The "latches" don't latch worth a damn and anytime I accidentally kick my PC or heaven forbid, my cat jumps off said PC, I lose the connection to my main monitor until I get up and wiggle the plug... Stopped using and ordered a different brand.

I've got a bunch of StarTech DisplayPort cables in various lengths, and I've always been happy with them. This is actually the second 15-foot DP cable of theirs that I have, since the first worked out fine.There's really not too much to say about it. It's a DisplayPort cable, so it either works or it doesn't. This one works (at least, for me -- more than a few other reviewers seem to be having trouble). It uses the standard click-in locks on the end so that the cable doesn't accidentally fall out. It doesn't have that fancy gold plating, but I'm not too certain how necessary/useful that actually is -- I've never had any problems with cables without it.

High-quality! Nice thick cable, which may be an issue if you need a thinner cable. I bought the 15ft one and it supports 2560*1440p at 144hz! Took forever to find a cable that'd could do that and I'm stoked it does!

I finally got the cable. It does not meet DisplayPort 1.2. I only get half the bandwidth (10.63Gbps). I have a cable that is on the displayport.org list as compliant, and that one shows full bandwidth (21.26Gbps). The fact that the cable is not compliant makes it useless for daisy chaining 3 1920x1200 monitors. What pisses me off even more is that it is falsely advertised. Sure, it fits the same connector, but cannot does not meet all of the other requirements. I will be RMAing this cable.
