Eaton P580-020 Tripp Lite DisplayPort Cable 20 ft 4K 60Hz M M
The Eaton P580-020 is a 20 ft DisplayPort male-to-male cable designed for connecting DisplayPort-equipped computers, monitors, and other compatible audio/video equipment. Its passive construction supports bidirectional DisplayPort connections, while latching connectors help keep the cable securely connected during installation and use.
4K DisplayPort Video and Digital Audio
The P580-020 supports Ultra HD resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 and is specified for 4K video at up to 60 Hz in the manufacturer's technical specifications. It also supports 1080p and other common DisplayPort resolutions, along with HDCP-protected content and digital audio.
20-Foot Cable for Longer Display Connections
The 20 ft (6.09 m) length provides additional reach between a DisplayPort source and display without adding a separate extension cable. The cable has a black PVC jacket and shielded construction for use in desktop, conference-room, digital signage, and other AV installations.
Latching Male-to-Male Connectors
Both ends use DisplayPort male connectors with latching mechanisms. The latches help maintain the physical connection at the source and display, which can be useful for longer cable runs where accidental connector movement is a concern.
Key Features
- 20 ft (6.09 m) DisplayPort male-to-male cable
- Passive, bidirectional DisplayPort connection
- Supports up to 3840 x 2160 4K resolution
- Latching DisplayPort connectors for secure connections
- Shielded black PVC cable construction
DC Supplies Product Note
The 20 ft length makes the P580-020 useful when the display cannot be positioned close to the computer or AV source; measure the intended cable route before installation because the passive cable is designed as a direct source-to-display connection rather than an active optical extension.
Typical Applications
- Computer-to-monitor DisplayPort connections
- Conference-room displays
- Digital signage installations
- Desktop workstation video connections
- DisplayPort-equipped AV systems
