How important is an Active Adapter? Active Adapters use an\nintegrated chipset to convert the DisplayPort signal from the computer to an\nHDMI signal. The Plugable adapter supports resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160)\n60Hz on displays with Standard Dynamic Range (SDR), and 4K 30Hz with High\nDynamic Range (HDR) capable displays.

Compatibility\nCompatible Setups PC and Mac laptops, desktops, or tablets that have Mini\nDisplayPort or Thunderbolt 2 output ports In order to display a 4K resolution\nthe host's graphics processor and attached display need to be 4K capable\nIncompatible Setups This adapter is not bidirectional and will not convert\nvideo in the other direction Not compatible with HDR (requires HDMI 2.0b or\nHDMI 2.1) Refresh rate may be limited to 30Hz on 4K HDR televisions For Apple\nUsers While our mDP adapters work with Apple Thunderbolt ports, the maximum\nsupported resolution will depend on the model of Mac and monitor in use.\nPlease be aware that with an update to macOS Mavericks, Apple disabled 4K\nvideo output on the vast majority of Mac models—even models which previously\nwere able to output 4K. Only Macs with “official” 4K support from Apple will\nbe capable of 4K output using this adapter, while most will be limited to\n1080P output. Additionally, some Apple systems will not be capable of\noutputting audio from Thunderbolt 2 to the HDMI display. The adapter has\npassed the extensive testing requirements necessary for VESA certification and\nis compliant with VESA Dual-Mode DisplayPort 1.2, High Bit Rate 2 (HBR2), and\nHDMI 2.0 standards. The adapter is also compatible with both AMD Eyefinity and\nNVIDIA Surround technologies. FAQ What is an active adapter? How is it\ndifferent from a passive adapter? An Active DisplayPort adapter has an\nintegrated circuit to convert a DisplayPort signal to HDMI, DVI, or VGA.\nDisplayPort uses a different digital signaling type than HDMI and DVI (which\nuse the same type), both of these signaling types are very different from\nVGA's analog signal. Passive adapters rely on the graphics controller to\nselectively deliver the correct graphics signal using the DisplayPort output.\nGenerally, this leads to reduced resolution or refresh rate compared to Active\nAdapters. Additionally using passive adapters may limit the number of\nconnected displays in AMD Eyefinity and NVIDIA Surround setups. Why doesn't\nthis work with HDR 4K televisions? HDR or HDR10 is a new technology that\nrequires additional color and brightness data to be transmitted from the\ncomputer to the display. This requires the host computer to support\nDisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.0b or HDMI 2.1, our adapter is designed for SDR\n(non-HDR) displays and converts from DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 and is\nincompatible with the HDR specification. When connected to an HDR television,\nthe television will attempt to enable HDR over the connection even though it\nis not supported causing reduced refresh rate or image quality. Some\ntelevisions provide options to disable HDR but most will enable and prioritize\nHDR over image quality and refresh rate. Why am I unable to set a 3840x2160\nresolution at a 60Hz refresh rate from my MacBook Pro\/Mac Pro (Retina, Late\n2013 and later)? Mac OS X\/macOS has limited the 4K video output from mDP ports\nto a maximum of 4K (3840x2160 @ 30Hz) when using our adapter with an HDMI 2.0\nrated cable and HDMI 2.0 compatible display. Some customers have been\nsuccessful in achieving a 4K resolution at 60Hz refresh rate when using 3rd\nparty applications, like SwitchResX. Apple transmits audio over\nDisplayPort\/Thunderbolt in a unique way. Implementing support for this feature\non Apple systems would have resulted in the adapter no longer qualifying for\nVESA (DisplayPort) certification.
