DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable | Full-Size Plugs on Both Ends | Digital Picture and Sound | Plug and Play Setup
A spare lead for office desks, gaming rigs and docking stations, sealed and ready to connect.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable is available at Mascom International for KSh 800, brand new and sealed, with a full-size DisplayPort plug on each end for linking a computer to a monitor. It carries a digital picture and sound over one lead, so a desktop tower, graphics card or docking station can feed a DisplayPort screen without an adapter. The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable is in stock now at our shop on Kimathi Street, in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Nairobi CBD. Our stock list does not give the length, so message us on WhatsApp to confirm it before you order.
Built for office managers, accountants, developers and university students across Kenya, the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable solves a common setup problem. Many business monitors and graphics cards come with DisplayPort sockets, yet the original lead often goes missing during a move or an office refit. A dual-screen desk in Upper Hill or Westlands then sits idle while staff hunt for a cable. Plug one end into the computer and the other into the screen, choose the DisplayPort input on the monitor menu, and the picture appears. No software, drivers or power supply are needed, so the desk is back at work within minutes.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell loose leads from open bins, Mascom International keeps the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable sealed until it reaches you. Customers across Nairobi tell us they want a working spare without paying brand-name money for a basic office link, and this cable fills that gap at KSh 800. Before you buy the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, staff at the counter can tell you which socket your monitor or graphics card uses before you pay, which saves a wasted trip. Visit the shop to see the cable in person, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable
How much is the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable in Kenya?
The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable costs KSh 800, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the cable and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you inspect the cable before handing over cash or paying through M-Pesa. Nairobi orders usually arrive the same day. Since our stock list does not give the length, send a WhatsApp message first and we will confirm it before you commit.
Does the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable carry sound as well as picture?
Yes, DisplayPort sends digital audio alongside the picture, so the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable can carry sound to a monitor with speakers or a headphone jack. Whether you hear anything depends on the screen. Many office monitors have no speakers, and then the sound has nowhere to go. In that case, switch the computer's sound output back to its own speakers or a headset. On Windows, you pick the playback device from the speaker icon in the taskbar.
How does the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable compare with the UGREEN DP102 and UGREEN DP114?
The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable is the low-cost unbranded choice, while the two UGREEN cables bring a known brand and published ratings. The UGREEN DP102 comes in a choice of fixed lengths, so you can match the cable to your desk. The UGREEN DP114 is rated for a specific newer DisplayPort version, which suits fast gaming monitors. Pick this KSh 800 cable for ordinary office screens, and pick a UGREEN cable when you want a stated rating printed on the box.
What length is the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, and how do I choose?
Our stock list does not state the length of the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, so please confirm it on WhatsApp at +254 708 852 521 before ordering. To choose well, measure the path from the computer's socket to the monitor's socket, then add some slack for routing behind the desk. A cable pulled tight strains both sockets and can work loose. If you need a set length for a boardroom or a long desk run, ask our staff which cable suits it.
Will the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable cope with KPLC power cuts and dust in a Kenyan office?
The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable carries no mains power, so KPLC outages and surges do not affect the cable itself. Protect the computer and monitor with a surge protector or UPS instead, because those devices take the hit. Dust is the bigger risk in offices along Mombasa Road or in Industrial Area. Blow dust out of the sockets before plugging in, and store spare cables in a sealed bag. A dusty plug can cause flickering or a blank screen.
Who should buy the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable if your computer and monitor both have full-size DisplayPort sockets and you want a low-cost spare for office or home use. Skip it if your screen only has HDMI or VGA, because this cable will not fit. Laptop owners with only USB-C ports should look for a USB-C to DisplayPort cable instead. Gamers chasing 144Hz-plus refresh rates are better served by a cable rated for a specific DisplayPort version, such as the UGREEN DP114.
Can I connect a laptop to a monitor with this cable?
This cable connects a laptop only if the laptop has a full-size DisplayPort socket, which is rare on thin models but common on docking stations. Many business laptops, including recent HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad models, send a DisplayPort signal through a USB-C port instead. For those, a USB-C to DisplayPort cable or a dock is the right tool. With a dock, the DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable links the dock to the monitor, a common hot-desk setup.
Will this cable run a gaming monitor at its top refresh rate?
We cannot promise top refresh rates on this cable, because our stock list does not give its DisplayPort rating. For everyday work such as spreadsheets, video calls, browsing and streaming, a basic DisplayPort cable does the job well. Gamers pushing a fast monitor to its limit, or running a 4K screen at high refresh, should choose a cable with a stated DisplayPort version on the packaging. Send your monitor and graphics card model on WhatsApp, and our staff will advise you honestly.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Signal
- DisplayPort plug on both ends — links a computer's DisplayPort output straight to a monitor's DisplayPort input, with no adapter in between.
- Digital video signal — the picture travels as data, so there is none of the fuzz or ghosting that older analogue VGA leads can show.
- Digital audio alongside the picture — monitors with speakers or a headphone jack can play the computer's sound over the same single lead.
- Passive cable with no chip or power supply — nothing to install, charge or configure; plug in, select the input and start working.
- Plug and play on Windows and Linux computers — the system detects the monitor by itself and offers display settings within seconds.
- Length and DisplayPort version not stated on our stock list — confirm the length on WhatsApp so the cable reaches your screen comfortably.
Compatibility
- Desktop graphics cards from NVIDIA and AMD — most current cards include one or more DisplayPort outputs that accept this cable directly.
- Business desktops such as HP EliteDesk, Dell OptiPlex and Lenovo ThinkCentre — many models carry DisplayPort sockets on the back panel.
- Office monitors from Dell, HP, Lenovo and others — look on the back of the screen for a socket marked DP or showing the DisplayPort symbol.
- Docking stations — many USB-C and Thunderbolt docks have DisplayPort outputs, so this cable can link a dock to an extra screen.
- Two screens from one desktop — a graphics card with two DisplayPort outputs can drive two monitors when you use two of these cables.
- Not for HDMI-only or VGA-only screens — the plugs will not fit, and those setups need a different cable or an adapter.
Build and Handling
- Brand new and sealed stock — the cable arrives unused, without the kinks, bent pins or worn plugs common on second-hand office leads.
- Unbranded construction — a plain, no-frills cable meant for everyday office and home connections rather than specialist gaming setups.
- Press any release button on the plug before pulling it out — DisplayPort plugs often lock into the socket, and forcing them can damage the port.
- Route the cable without sharp bends — tight folds behind a desk strain the wires inside and can cause flicker over time.
- Keep the plugs clean — dust in a socket can cause a blank screen, so blow the ports out before connecting the cable.
Inclusions and Support
- One DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable — the item you order, sealed in its packaging, with nothing to assemble before use.
- No adapter or driver disc — none is needed when both the computer and the monitor have DisplayPort sockets.
- 6-month warranty through Mascom International — manufacturing faults are handled at our service desk in Nairobi CBD.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery — inspect the cable at your door before paying in cash or by M-Pesa.
- Advice before you buy — send a photo of your computer and monitor sockets on WhatsApp, and staff will confirm the cable fits.
Package Contents
Your order contains one DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, brand new and sealed in its retail packaging. There is no power adapter, software or driver disc, because a passive DisplayPort cable needs none of them. The cable comes without a monitor, dock or graphics card, so check that both of your devices have full-size DisplayPort sockets before ordering. If your setup uses HDMI or USB-C on one side, ask our staff which part you need instead.
Warranty
The DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable carries a 6-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. If the cable stops passing a picture because of a manufacturing fault, bring it with your receipt to our service desk at the Old Mutual Building in Nairobi CBD, where our team will assess the claim.
