Extron DPM-HDF/0.5 4K PLUS DisplayPort Male to HDMI Female Active Adapter Cable - 6"

The Extron DPM-HDF/0.5 4K PLUS is a compact, active adapter cable that converts DisplayPort signals to HDMI, enabling reliable connection from DisplayPort-equipped sources like computers, laptops, and media players to HDMI displays, projectors, switchers, or other sink devices. Featuring built-in active circuitry, it transforms packetized DisplayPort signals to TMDS format while supporting high-bandwidth resolutions up to 4K/60 @ 4:4:4 with 18 Gbps data rates, full chroma subsampling, and no signal degradation. The cable passes EDID information from the HDMI display to the source for automatic resolution matching, maintains HDCP compliance for protected content, and transmits embedded audio, making it essential for professional AV integrations bridging modern DisplayPort outputs to HDMI-based systems in conference rooms, classrooms, control rooms, and presentation environments.

At just 6 inches (15 cm) long, the adapter minimizes clutter in tight spaces such as racks, under-table mounts, or surface access enclosures while providing gold-plated contacts for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections. Powered entirely by the DisplayPort source device with no external power required, it offers plug-and-play simplicity and VESA Interoperability Guideline compliance for dependable performance in demanding AV setups.
