Product Description
Product Description
With the Plugable DisplayPort to HDMI Active Adapter (DP-HDMI), convert the DisplayPort output on your device–laptop, desktop, tablet, docking station–to HDMI. Now you’re ready to connect to virtually any HDMI-enabled display.
How important is an Active Adapter? Active Adapters use an integrated chipset to convert the DisplayPort signal from the computer to an HDMI signal. The Plugable adapter supports resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160) 60Hz on displays with Standard Dynamic Range (SDR), and 4K 30Hz with High Dynamic Range (HDR) capable displays.
Applications
- Connect an HDMI-equipped display to a DisplayPort-equipped device
- Connect additional HDMI displays to AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA Surround capable graphics cards
- Small and sturdy, so it can go where you go
In the Bag
- Plugable DisplayPort to HDMI Active Adapter
Please note that an HDMI cable is not included.
Compatibility
Compatible Setups | Compatible with PC laptops, desktops, tablets, or DisplayPort docking stations that have a full-sized DisplayPort output port to add a HDMI-capable monitor, TV, or projector |
In order to display a 4K resolution the host's graphics processor and attached display need to be 4K capable | |
Incompatible Setups | This adapter is not bi-directional and will not convert video in the other direction |
Not compatible with HDR (requires HDMI 2.0b or HDMI 2.1) | |
Refresh rate may be limited to 30Hz on 4K HDR televisions |
What is an active adapter? How is it different from a passive adapter?
An Active DisplayPort adapter has an integrated circuit to convert a DisplayPort signal to HDMI, DVI, or VGA. DisplayPort uses a different digital signaling type than HDMI and DVI (which use the same type), both of these signaling types are very different from VGA's analog signal.
Passive adapters rely on the graphics controller to selectively deliver the correct graphics signal using the DisplayPort output. Generally, this leads to reduced resolution or refresh rate compared to Active Adapters. Additionally using passive adapters may limit the number of connected displays in AMD Eyefinity and NVIDIA Surround setups.
Why doesn't this work with HDR 4K televisions?
HDR or HDR10 is a new technology that requires additional color and brightness data to be transmitted from the computer to the display. This requires the host computer to support DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.0b or HDMI 2.1, our adapter is designed for SDR (non-HDR) displays and converts from DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 and is incompatible with the HDR specification.
When connected to an HDR television, the television will attempt to enable HDR over the connection even though it is not supported causing reduced refresh rate or image quality. Some televisions provide options to disable HDR but most will enable and prioritize HDR over image quality and refresh rate.

UPDATE: Dec 31, 2019. I changed rating from 1 to 4 stars. Plugable support contacted me and the technical explanation was understandable. It isn't so much a defect in the product as a confluence of factors between graphic cards, monitors and computers. I would STILL recommend an active adapter over a passive one; with the exception of not seeing boot up screens (which won't effect everyone), active adapters solve more issues than cause. Once booted, the adapter was fantastic, rock solid 2K. Most users probably don't need to be able to see boot up/POST screens, if so, then this adapter is still a good choice. In my case, most of my systems are dual boot, so being able to see the boot up/BIOS/POST screens is necessary.
Instead I got 1080p with HDR. Turns out my DP to HDMI adapter only does 1080p.
After wondering what the difference could be for displayport -> hdmi adapters and cables costing between $5 and $50, I did some research.
The displayport signal and the HDMI signal are completely different, but because it was designed to be cross-compatible early on, a displayport can output HDMI (pass-through) and an adapter only has to do some work changing voltages and passing the signal (so called 'passive' adapters).
However, that was early on. Now that every bit of bandwidth is needed for the huge UHD signal, there is no way that you can pass through full 4K 60hz on the same port. This is why there are 'cheap' adapters and 'not cheap' adapters.
What is the difference between the adapters that do 4K@30hz and 4K@60hz and 4K@60hz with HDR?
Since there is no longer an easy HDMI signal to grab and adapt, the adapter has to completely translate the displayport language into hdmi as it goes into the cable and as it comes out. Thus, there is going to be a difference between low-end and mid-end and high-end adapters because they each have tiny computers inside of them doing a lot of work, and some do more than others, and some do better, etc.
Realizing that this adapter is going to be the middle-man controlling whether the image is good, or smooth, or doesn't work sometimes, etc, I did some research and found that this (plugable) was a decent brand, and the adapter did what I needed, and the price was agreeable, and there was overnight shipping. So, I got it.
What can I say? I works, I am happy. If you need a 4K 60hz HDR capable displayport to hdmi adapter, then this looks to be the sweet spot for price/quality.

Je l’utilise dans le branchement suivant :
PC portable > USB-C 65W + DP > Écran 1 (Sur port USB-C) > Adaptateur Plugable (Sur le port DP Out) + câble HDMI > Écran 2 (sur un port HDMI)
J’obtiens grâce à ça un affichage sur mon Écran 2 ! 👍
On ne branche plus qu’un seul câble sur le PC portable. J’avais fait le test avec un câble Display Port vers HDMI mais sans succès, il était nécessaire d’avoir un adaptateur « actif » si j’ai bien compris. Je me suis donc rabattu sur cet article.
Concernant les résolutions et les fréquences, le premier écran a une résolu de 2560*1440 à 75 Hz, le second, connecté via l’adaptateur, a une résolution de 2560*1440 à 84 Hz (l’écran en fait 165 max), ce qui n’est pas dérangeant dans un contexte professionnel pour ma part.
J’espère que mon avis vous aura aidé !

La versione display port è 1.2 e l'adattatore hdmi 2.0.
Attenzione funziona solo da display port a hdmi e non viceversa!
AGGIORNAMENTO:Con i videogames,utilizzando un sintoamplificatore,l'audio stranamente salta per una frazione di secondo ogni 2minuti circa ma nessun problema nella visione dei film in 4k o full hd(dts/dolby) e anche collegandolo direttamente alla tv(ma qualità scarsa se non sbaglio a 12bit )ma anche sull'home theatre abbassando la qualità verso il basso il problema piano piano sparisce.
AGGIORNAMENTO2:Risolto il problema acquistando un cavo per 4k 60hz di 1mt al posto del 4mt.
