Important Notice

1. This adapter has a Mini DisplayPort male plug and a full-size DisplayPort female socket for a DisplayPort male cable. It is not a Micro HDMI or Micro USB adapter.
2. For bidirectional transmission, confirm that the source device outputs a compatible video signal and the destination accepts it. A matching connector does not guarantee every audio or video function.
3. 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 144Hz are upper limits, not guaranteed results. The source, display, cable and connected equipment must support the chosen resolution and refresh rate. A Thunderbolt 2 port's Mini DisplayPort shape alone does not guarantee every video feature.
