BizLink launched the world’s first ​VESA certified DP80 enhanced mDP cable

Previously, the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) announced that in order to ensure that users can tell whether the cable or equipment supports the new standard, it will launch the DisplayPort UHBR certification program. Device and cable manufacturers can send new products to DisplayPort Authorized Test Centers (ATCs) for testing and certification, and many are already testing their products.

Today BizLink announced the launch of the world’s first ​VESA certified DP80 enhanced mDP cable. This DP80 cable from BizLink uses the mDP interface and supports the link rates of UHBR10 (40Gbps), UHBR13.5 (54Gbps), and UHBR20 (80Gbps), provides higher bandwidth for higher resolution and image quality and is backward compatible with existing DisplayPort devices. BizLink said that since 2019, it has cooperated with VESA to develop next-generation enhanced full-size DP/mDP cables and interfaces, breaking the bandwidth limitations of previous traditional cables and interfaces.

Both VESA’s DP40 and DP80 UHBR certified cables can meet the access requirements of DisplayPort 2.0. The DP40 supports UHBR10, and the DP80 also supports UHBR13.5 and UHBR20 on this basis. Certified cables include full-size DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort products and are fully backward compatible with previously defined and currently used DisplayPort link rate devices, including RBR, HBR, HBR2, and HBR3.

For DisplayPort Alt Mode (DisplayPort over USB Type-C), full-featured passive USB-C cables already support UHBR. VESA says certified USB Type-C to DisplayPort cables will also be available soon.
