Review on VESA Certified Industrial Electrical DisplayPort 1.4 Cable by StarTech Com by Efrain Khan

Revainrating 1 out of 5

High quality but not flexible cable

I bought four of these StarTech.com 3M DisplayPort cables to use with AORUS FI25F 25" 240Hz 1080P monitors. Very satisfied. The quality of the cables and connectors is very good good. There were no issues with all four cables and I was able to get crisp 240Hz 1080P images on all monitors. I only had two issues that I encountered.. First, the cables are very rigid. They bend not much, especially near the ports. They sagged a few inches under the monitor before I could route them back into the multi-monitor stand I was using. The second problem I encountered was that the Locks on the connectors were very difficult to open. I had to push the cable very hard to release the locks. This made it difficult to disconnect the cable from the monitor. Both of these problems made the cables f unfortunately unusable for my application. Cable stiffness probably wouldn't be an issue if I used the included monitor stands instead of the multi-monitor stand I use.
