Loss of signal with accessories and consumables

Sucks at its only job At first glance, it seemed reasonably well built, looking like a standard, no-frills display port cable. But as soon as I started using it, I immediately started having signal loss issues. My screen goes black and the image flickers intermittently until I turn the monitor off and on again. Very annoying. I replaced the cable with a good DP cable and everything is back to normal. Buy well or buy twice

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Upgradable

25' worked for 2560 x 1440 @ 144 Hz/fps

Had to move part of the room from the computer to a new screen. My old 25ft DisplayPort cable worked fine with the previous 1080@120Hz screen, but exhibited tutorial signal issues (flickering and dimming) when I upgraded to 1440@144Hz. So I ordered this active cable (25'/7m option) and it worked right away. Big. Smooth operation at 2560 x 1440 resolution at 144 frames per second. You can not ask for more!

Pros
  • Lasting test results
Cons
  • Updates

They worked fine for the most part, but .

They worked fine most of the time, but occasionally they would disconnect or become static for a moment and then go back to normal. I don't think it's due to input loss as I've checked multiple times on both ends. The rate at which this is happening, although less frequently, when it was initially several times a day, is now only once every few days. Although there is no explanation for this.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Insecure

need a very strong input signal

+ decent cable with good connectors and strain relief. - does not work with EVGA GTX970 SC and LG GK650F-B 1440p @ 144hz. constant. I've read that Nvidia has had poor DP signal on several card lines over the years (and poor DP support in general) so this cable may work better with newer AMD cards. -up and use the shorter version of KabelDirekt (was fine).

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • There are cons

Great cable - no wonder

I work in IT and we regularly buy tons of cables. I often look for StarTech cables because we have never had a single defective cable and we have never had a broken cable. When I needed a 10 foot DP cable for my home PC I immediately went to see if StarTech made what I was looking for and they actually did. Great cable. Excellent price. A NOTICE. Make sure the video cable you plan to buy supports both the resolution and refresh rate you intend to use. It's easy to make a mistake if you're notโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Repair

Doesn't work even at 1/3 of the specified bandwidth.

This cable is listed at 21.6 Gbps. I first tried it at 4k and 30Hz, which only requires 6.18 Gbps. I get a lot of flicker and a lot of desync. I then tried 60Hz, which requires 12.54GHz, which is why I bought the cable in the first place. All I get is a blank screen, can't sync at all. I've tried two cables and tried reversing the cable so that opposite ends are plugged in in case of a bad ground. There was no way I could get the cable to run at 60Hz, which is within the advertised spec. I will

Pros
  • Rugged construction

So much for buying certified cables, now what?

Updated 01/04/19 Anyone looking for a cable that will work with the Asus PG348Q at 1440p 100Hz should know that the KableDirekt 8k DisplayPort cable works perfectly - https://smile .amazon.com/ gp /product/B07HL7RSRW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1New PC build including ROG Strix RTX2080 and new ROG Strix PG348Q Ultra Wide Monitor.
