UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,900, brand new and sealed, with a full-size DisplayPort plug on one end and a standard HDMI plug on the other. It carries a picture of up to 4K at 30Hz, or Full HD 1080p, from a computer's DisplayPort output to an HDMI monitor. The conductors are 28AWG oxygen-free copper, both plugs are gold-plated, and the DisplayPort end has a locking latch. You can collect the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable at our store in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for office teams across Kenya, the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable solves a common desk problem. Many business desktops from HP, Dell and Lenovo come with DisplayPort outputs, while most affordable monitors in Kenyan offices only take HDMI. Accountants in Upper Hill, front-desk staff in Westlands and logistics coordinators in Industrial Area meet this mismatch every time a new screen arrives. The 1.5m length reaches from a tower under the desk to a monitor on top without loops of spare cable gathering dust. Plug the DisplayPort end into the computer, the HDMI end into the screen, and the picture appears.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded DP-to-HDMI leads with thin wire and no locking clip, Mascom International stocks the genuine UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable with clear, honest specifications. At Mascom International, we're seeing IT managers replace loose adapter-and-cable chains with the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable, because one lead has fewer joints to work loose when chairs and feet bump the tower. Customers across Nairobi tell us the latch alone saves them calls to the IT desk. Walk in to check the fit against your own computer, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to any county in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable
How much is the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m in Kenya?
The UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m costs KSh 1,900 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the cable, a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery, which is same day within Nairobi and its environs. If your monitor sits further from the computer, the 3m version is KSh 2,200, only KSh 300 more, and the 5m version is KSh 2,500. Pick the shortest length that reaches comfortably, since spare cable just ends up coiled behind the desk.
Will the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable connect my office desktop to an HDMI monitor?
Yes, the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable connects any desktop with a full-size DisplayPort output to a monitor that has an HDMI input. That covers most business towers and small-form-factor PCs from HP, Dell and Lenovo, plus desktop graphics cards with DisplayPort sockets. Check the port first: a full-size DisplayPort socket has one corner cut off at an angle. Mini DisplayPort, USB-C and Thunderbolt outputs need a different cable, and Mascom International can confirm your model on WhatsApp before you order.
Can I use the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable to connect an HDMI laptop to a DisplayPort monitor?
No, the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable works in one direction only: from a DisplayPort source to an HDMI display. The DisplayPort end must go into the computer that sends the picture, and the HDMI end into the screen that shows it. Reversing it, such as an HDMI laptop feeding a DisplayPort monitor, gives a blank screen because the conversion only runs one way. For DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort setups, Mascom International sells the UGREEN DP102 DisplayPort Cable from KSh 1,300 for 1.5m.
Should I buy the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable or the UGREEN MM137 DisplayPort to HDMI Converter?
Buy the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable if you want one lead with 4K at 30Hz support; choose the UGREEN MM137 converter if you already own a spare HDMI cable. The MM137 costs KSh 1,400 at Mascom International, KSh 500 less, but it is a short adapter limited to 1080p, so it still needs a separate HDMI cable to reach the monitor. The DP101 replaces that two-part chain with one cable and one latch. For a 4K monitor, pick the DP101; for an existing 1080p screen, the MM137 saves money.
Is 1.5m long enough for a typical office desk?
For most single desks, the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m comfortably runs from a tower on the floor to a monitor on the desk surface. Measure the path the cable will actually follow, around the desk edge and up the back of the monitor stand, not the straight line between the two ports. Add a little slack so the plugs never sit under tension. If the tower stands on a side shelf or under a neighbouring cabinet, step up to the 3m length at KSh 2,200 instead.
How does the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable cope with KPLC power cuts at the office?
The UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable needs no separate power adapter, so a KPLC outage leaves nothing extra to reset or replace. When power returns, the picture comes back as soon as the desktop and monitor restart. The bigger risk during Kenyan blackouts is a voltage surge reaching the computer's graphics port or the monitor's HDMI input. Plugging both machines into a UPS or surge protector guards the ports at each end of the cable. Mascom International stocks UPS units for offices that lose power often.
Can the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable add a second monitor for accountants and analysts?
Yes, the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable is a simple way to add a second HDMI monitor when the desktop's own HDMI port already drives the first screen. Many office PCs carry one HDMI output alongside one or two DisplayPort outputs, so the DP101 turns a spare DisplayPort into a working second display. Accountants keep a spreadsheet open on one screen and KRA iTax or a banking portal on the other. Windows then lets you extend or mirror the desktop from its Display settings page.
Who should buy the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 1.5m if your desktop has a full-size DisplayPort output and your monitor sits on the same desk. It suits office workers, home study corners and IT teams fitting out rows of workstations. Skip it if your laptop only offers USB-C or Mini DisplayPort, because the plug will not fit. Gamers chasing 4K at 60Hz or high refresh rates should skip it too, since this cable tops out at 4K 30Hz; a DisplayPort monitor joined with the UGREEN DP102 DisplayPort Cable suits them better.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Picture Output
- DisplayPort-to-HDMI conversion built into the cable — one lead does the job of an adapter plus a separate HDMI cable on your desk.
- Up to 4K resolution at 30Hz — sharp text for spreadsheets, contracts and video calls on a 4K office monitor; 30Hz means 30 screen refreshes each second.
- Full HD 1080p and lower resolutions also supported — older office monitors still show a clean picture at their own native setting.
- 10.8Gbps rated bandwidth — the amount of data the link carries each second, matched to the 4K at 30Hz signal this cable is rated for.
- One-way signal path — the DisplayPort end must plug into the computer and the HDMI end into the monitor, never the reverse.
Compatibility with Desktops and Monitors
- Full-size DisplayPort male plug — fits the standard DisplayPort socket on business towers, small-form-factor office PCs and desktop graphics cards.
- HDMI male plug — fits the HDMI input on nearly every office monitor, so the same cable works when screens are swapped or upgraded.
- Plug-and-play on Windows and Linux desktops — the computer detects the monitor once connected, with no driver disc or app to install.
- Not suited to Mini DisplayPort, USB-C or Thunderbolt outputs — those smaller sockets need a different cable, so check your computer's ports first.
- Works with monitors from HP, Dell, Lenovo, Samsung, LG and other brands — any screen with an HDMI input can receive the picture.
Build and Durability
- 28AWG oxygen-free copper conductors — AWG measures wire thickness, and oxygen-free copper is a purer metal that resists corrosion over years of use.
- Gold-plated plugs at both ends — gold resists tarnish, so the contact stays clean after repeated plugging and unplugging during desk moves.
- Latch-and-release clip on the DisplayPort plug — the cable locks into the socket and only comes out when you press the release button.
- Flexible PVC outer jacket — a bendable plastic covering that routes neatly around desk edges, monitor arms and under-desk cable trays.
- 1.5m length in black — long enough to reach from a floor-standing tower to a desk-mounted screen without excess cable to coil.
Inclusions and Support
- One UGREEN DP101 DisplayPort to HDMI Cable at 1.5m, brand new in sealed retail packaging.
- No separate power adapter required — the cable runs straight from the computer's DisplayPort output with nothing extra plugged into the wall.
- No software or driver disc — none is needed, because the computer and monitor recognise each other once the cable is connected.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty covering manufacturing defects, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD store counter.
- Free counter test on request — staff at Mascom International will connect the cable to a display before you leave the shop.
