Extron DisplayPort M-M/6 (part number 26-657-06) — a 6 foot latching DisplayPort cable from Extron's 4K Verified DisplayPort Series.

Six feet is the length most rooms actually need: floor box to table edge, rack shelf to display, credenza to wall plate. Extron builds this run to the DisplayPort 1.2 standard, with a male latching connector on each end so that the link survives being knocked. Every length in this series up to 12 feet holds 4096x2160 at 60 Hz, so a 6 foot run gives away nothing on resolution or refresh rate. Cables longer than 3 feet are measured tip to tip including the connectors, which is worth remembering when planning tight cable paths.

Key Capabilities

• DisplayPort 1.2 compliant and 4K Verified, holding 4096x2160 at 60 Hz across this length.
• Up to 21.6 Gbps in aggregate, with each pair running at 1.62, 2.7 or 5.4 Gbps.
• Multi-Stream Transport support allows one DisplayPort output to serve multiple monitors.
• Tinned copper conductors at 28 AWG, 30 AWG drains and a braided tinned copper shield.
• Attenuation held below 12.6 dB per 3 m between 1 and 2 GHz, with intrapair skew at or under 50 ps per 2 m.
• Certified for routing through Extron AVEdge, Cable Cubby and HSA surface access enclosures.

Where It Is Used

Conference tables with a recessed connectivity box, classroom lecterns, huddle room credenzas, control room operator desks and imaging workstations all tend to land in this range. The gold plated contacts and PVC jacket suit permanent installs where the cable is dressed once and left alone.
