Again - not working
I ordered 4 of these to deploy with new PC builds, as my Dells (D15U) only have DP ports. I considered that a serious limitation, but these cables would save the day. They don't work. I tried the same cable on a Lenovo (ThinkCentre M75q Gen2) and the cable doesn't work. The one instance it did work was when I connected it to the HDMI port on a television, but then it di...

Another failure
I get no signal from a DisplayPort on a MSI CUBI5 to HDMI1 on a Dell S2722QC. Both the monitor port and the CUBI5 port work when connected to other devices. Waste of money, especially given the price of these cables.

Unfortunately, this cable is designed to only convert a DisplayPort video signal to HDMI and is unable to convert in the opposite direction. As an alternative solution to connect HDMI to DisplayPort, I would suggest reviewing our HD2DP.
We hope this helps and should you have any further questions of concerns, please get in touch with our Technical Advisors by clicking "Live Chat" at the top of our website.

Please note that DP2HDMM2MB is a passive adapter cable. This means that in order to successfully convert a DisplayPort signal to HDMI, the DisplayPort connector requires DP++ support to output video.
One of our technical advisors will be reaching to gather information about your setup, and see if we can help resolve the issue you are seeing.

Not working is the only feature!!
My company gave me 2 of these cables for my office setup and my PC can detect none screen thru this trash!! After wasting an hour of try & error, I went dig out several old HMDI/DP cables and everything works in second.
