BENFEI HDMI to DisplayPort, Uni-Directional HDMI (Source) to DisplayPort (Display) Adapter 4K@60Hz/2K@144Hz/1080P@165Hz Compatible with Laptop, Xbox 360 One, PS4 PS3 Device

Works extremely well :) It successfully is converting an HDMI output from a laptop to be DP output, to plug into a KVM switch. I didn't realize I needed a powered active adapter to do this, but I'm glad this compact product works. Very weirdly, probably because I don't quite understand how this device works, but this still converts the signal to DP even when the USB cable isn't plugged into anything.....I just happened to unplug the USB cable to try to rearrange my setup and plug something else into the USB port I had this adapter plugged into....then realized the signal on the monitor was still being displayed. I guess the internals in this adapter are somehow still converting the signal? But yeah......it works with the USB cable plugged in or not. I did try a passive HDMI to DP adapter before trying this product, with the passive adapter not having a USB cable at all. That adapter wasn't able to convert the signal, so I did need a product like this to do what I wanted.

First of all, let me make it clear that I am reviewing the HDMI to DisplayPort adapter. The Raspberry Pi has an HDMI display connector, and I am using the Benfei to see the Pi's video on a monitor that has a Displayport connector. To get HDMI video to appear on a DisplayPort monitor, you need more than just a connector. The Benfei actively converts the video from HDMI to DisplayPort. It has a USB power connector to power the electronics that do the conversion. My Asus monitor has HDMI and DisplayPort connections. My regular home computer uses the monitor's HDMI port, and the Benfei lets me connect the Raspberry Pi's HDMI connector to the monitor's DisplayPort. It works fine. The Raspberry Pi 4 can drive the display at its 2560x1440 max resolution. (Sorry, I don't remember whether the Pi 3 video supports that resolution.) The Benfei has a USB cable that must be connected to 5 volts. That can be done with one of the Pi's USB ports or with any regular 5 volt supply. The Benfei draws 120 milliamps from its USB connection. To use the Benfei with a Raspberry Pi 3, the connections are Raspberry Pi HDMI port Benfei device DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable Monitor DisplayPort connector The Raspberry Pi 4 has Micro HDMI, so I had to also buy a Micro HDMI to HDMI adapter cable.

I too, also have a monitor that will only allow up to 144hz via display port. After trying other adapters, I received this one today and I was able to connect my Xbox Series S to my Benq Xl2411p and the image produced instantly. I then proceeded to go to the settings on my Xbox (Tv and Display Options) selected 120hz on the drop-down menu (previously locked at 60hz) asked to keep refresh rate and I selected confirm. Highly impressed with this product, does exactly what it was supposed to do with 0 issues. Also, I am very appreciative of the fact that the power supply cord on this device actually has some length to it.

Easy to install. Signal strength is good, no delay. If you are looking for something that can be used to hook a 120Hz gaming console (PS/Xbox series X/S) up to a high Hz PC monitor that is not built for a gaming a console, this will not work, it will be capped at 60Hz as it would be if you plugged the console into the HDMI port of some PC monitors. An HDMI gaming console will depend on the monitor build to get the full 120Hz, not the HDMI to DPI cable. We tried. All and all this cable will work great if you are trying to connect an HDMI device to a DPI only PC monitor.

Not work at all. I have an xbox series X and EIZO 4k monitor which has hdmi 1.4 and displayport 1.2. The hdmi 1.4 only supports 4k 30hz so I purchased this adapter. Totally waste of time, it can support only 1080p.. My monitor can support 4k 60hz using DP cable without a problem, it is a very high end monitor. Update 3/30/2022: I have tested it more. I can override output from automatic to HDMI in XBOX video fidelity & overscan section, and now you can choose 1440p, still no 4k support. I try to enable 4k in video modes but it says my monitor does not support 4k. I have another test, using my computer which has a GTX 1060 6G card, it is an old graphic card but still can support HDMI 2.0 output and 4k60hz. So I connect this adapter to this HDMI port, and using DP cable to my monitor, it can reach up to 4k30hz, not 4k60hz. For your information.

It works well, granted I'm not stressing it much. Using it to run a 1080p 20" secondary monitor that mainly displays static images for my gaming setup, so I have no idea how this would perform running a 4k TV running a game or something, but for my use case it works well and I have had zero issues with it! Even when I'm watching videos on that secondary monitor I've had no issues whatsoever. No hitches, hitches, visual packet loss, overheating of the device, etc. Again, I'm also not stressing this thing at all. Very low workload. Make sure you do your research however as these are unidirectional and need a separate power source via usb-a. In my case that was perfect.

Bought this because it was the only product that others had found success with for their Oculus Rift S. My laptop has a 2060 that is only connected to HDMI (no DP over USB) so this was my only option. AND IT WORKED! The Oculus software detected my Displayport connect instantly and after an unplug-replug cycle it was ready to go. I experienced no issues with picture quality or framerate. Suggestions: The USB power plug isn't used for data, but instead to help power the adapter. DON'T plug it into your PC. It will take too much power from the built-in USB hub so the Rift S won't have a stable connection. This could cause audio and controller tracking dropouts. Instead, plug it into a USB wall adapter (phone charger) maybe with an extension cord if it isn't long enough (it's about 18 inches). Troubleshooting: If the headset is black or glitches out, try going into the Oculus software -> Settings -> Beta -> Restart Oculus and it should be fixed.

The adapter worked as advertised and matched the PC resolution to the capabilities of the Dell display as expected. As long as there was a signal present at the output of the computer there was no complaint. HOWEVER, as soon as the computer monitor output went to sleep the adapter stopped passing the EDID information from the display back to the Graphics card in the PC, and then the PC resolution would change to another (higher) resolution that the monitor would not accept. This causes an error message to show on the display and the display would never go to sleep. A mouse movement to wake the display would NOT bring the monitor back on. The only way to get the monitor back was to cycle the power on the monitor. I bought another brand unit for the home PC to monitor that does not have this issue; I will keep this unit in my kit bag for a rainy day.

私の悩みを解決してくれました。大手家電量販店3店舗回りましたが、このHDMIからディスポートケーブルに接続する製品は販売されていませんでした。唯一Amazonで見つけて購入しました。HDMI出力端子しかない。デスクトップのパソコンからディスポートplay端子しかないモニターとの接続ができました。

Oldukça işime yaradı. Kaliteli, Teşekkürler

Habe einen Asus VG248QE Monitor mit 144hz und wollte gerne auf der PS5 mit 120hz Spielen. Leider sind die aber nur über den DisplayPort erreichbar und nicht über HDMI. Habe sehr lange im Internet nach einer Lösung recherchiert, bis ich auf diesen Adapter gestoßen bin. Habe ihn bestellt und ausprobiert und siehe da: Es Funktioniert ! Wichtig ist das man in der PS5 die Auflösung auf 1080p stellt und den Leistungsmodus aktiviert und natürlich ein spiel startet, welches 120hz unterstützt. Seit dem neuen Update wird auch kein EDID mehr benötigt einfach den Adapter in die PS5 und zum Monitor ein DisplayPort 1.2 Kabel. Fertig!

Works flawlessly with the xbox series s. Hook your monitor up though this cable. (You need a display port cable, not a hdmi) Go to Settings, General, TV & display options, Video fidelity & over scan, and then under Display, set the overrides to hdmi. Go back to the 'TV & display options' and here you can set your 1080p 120hz. I don't have a 1440p monitor so I can't test if all the resolutions are perfect but it works amazing for me and my resolution. Very happy 🙂

Molto contento dell'acquisto, funziona perfettamente con la mia xbox serie x, permettendomi di godermi i 120 fps senza dover cambiare monitor. (Il mio monitor ha una presa hdmi vecchia che arriva massimo fino a 60 hz ma grazie a questo cavo posso sfruttare la presa dp) ottimo.
