Description
Connect to an HDMI Ultra HD display from a DisplayPort-supported computer using the DisplayPort Active Adapter!
Designed specifically for those who enjoy high-level computing, graphics, and gaming, this adapter provides the highest performance at an affordable price. HDMI 2.0 up to 18Gbps allows even smooth 4K video playback, especially when combined with a 60Hz frame rate. Best of all, the DisplayPort Active Adapter is extremely easy to use and travel with, thanks to its portable size. To use it, simply connect one end to your computer and plug your existing HDMI cable into the other end. This will convert your computer screen video signal into an HDMI signal up to UHD 4K. Last but not least, the DisplayPort Active Adapter supports a 4:4:4 color format, ensuring true RGB vibrant colors, without typical visual color degradation. Audio isn't a concern either, with a transmission of up to 8 channel audio for immersive sound.

Quick Guide:
- Can only convert signal from DisplayPort™ to HDMI™. This is not a bi-directional adapter
- Connect multiple monitors using NVIDIA™ Surround technology (one adapter per monitor)
- Depress the button on the DisplayPort connector to release the latches and avoid damage when unplugging
- For the HDR function, the source system needs to support DisplayPort™ 1.4, and the screen needs to have support for HDR and/or HDMI 2.0a or b
Q: I am only getting 4K@30Hz when using the UPTab Active adapter. How can I get 4K @ 60Hz?
There are several different reasons why a 4K display would be limited to 4K@30Hz using our adapter. We would recommend first checking:
- The DisplayPort output port must be DP 1.2 compliant to get 4K@60Hz.
- System specifications to ensure that the internal graphics processor can support 4K @ 60Hz and that the output port on the system/GPU can support 4K @ 60Hz.
- Monitor specifications to ensure that it can support 4K@60Hz from the desired input port. HDMI input ports must be HDMI 2.0b specifications.
- Ensure that the HDMI cable is HDMI 2.0 compliant.
If both the system’s GPU, DisplayPort output port, and the monitor claim support for 4K @ 60Hz, please check the Windows Advanced Display Adapter settings to ensure that 60Hz is available and selected from the drop-down list.
If 30Hz is not listed and you are connected to our adapter with an HDMI cable, please double-check that the monitor has HDMI 2.0b ports. Additionally, some 4K TVs and monitors must enable an “HDMI 2.0,” an “HDMI UHD Color” or “Ultra HD/UHD Deep Color” (or similar) setting for 4K@60Hz to work via HDMI. Please consult the monitor’s manual and check the monitor’s menu settings to see if there is an applicable setting.
UPTab adapter is truly active. Rather than relying upon passing a TMDS signal via DisplayPort’s Dual-Mode, the adapters actively convert the outgoing DisplayPort LVDS packets into the necessary TMDS signaling. With an internal clock rate of up to 594MHz, our adapters support all the “must-have” features of HDMI 2.0, with resolutions up to 4K@60Hz with HDR, stereoscopic 3D support, and higher color depths.
Q: Does the UPTab (B014E8ZC7E-B) adapter support AMD Eyefinity setups beyond two monitors?
Yes! AMD Eyefinity will allow up to two “legacy” display connections (HDMI, DVI, or VGA). The third connection must be native DisplayPort, i.e.; not Dual-Mode/DP++ carrying an HDMI signal (since that would count as one of the two “legacy” displays). When using our active adapter, the video card will not need to utilize one of the legacy connections but instead will address it as a native DisplayPort display. (Please note: per AMD, their graphics cards support a maximum of two active adapters.)
Q: Does the UPTab (B014E8ZC7E-B) adapter support 4:4:4 color/chroma sampling?
Yes! Our adapter supports 4:4:4 chroma sampling at 4K @ 60Hz resolutions at 8-bit color depth (8bpc). Please be aware that the display that is being connected must also support 4:4:4 color depth, and the HDMI cable must be HDMI 2.0 capable while connected to an HDMI 2.0 input port on the display.
