A Note about Display Port Adaptors and cables

Compatibility with all Display Port devices can never be guaranteed. Green Hippo has tested many cables, adaptors and displays to determine what works best with Hippotizer systems. The findings show that Active adaptors from Display Port to DVI are the most reliable with those made by Bizlink, Accell or Startech to be of consistent quality. Similarly, Active VisionTek, Startech or Tripplite Display Port to HDMI adaptors have also proven to be among the most reliable. The quality and availability of adaptors varies hugely. Always test a specific adaptor before attempting to use it.

Display Port connections directly from the Hippotizer to a Display Port display or signal handling equipment also relies on a good quality cable. Do not exceed the maximum recommended cable length (normally 6ft or 1.8m) especially when working at UHD or 4K resolutions. Use Vesa certified DP1.2 cable. A full list of which is available on the Vesa website.
