Hi guys,

I've reduced the price on a load of cables, converters and powerbanks so we are the cheapest out there. Thought I'd drop a heads up here before the non-forum muggles out there snap them up.

This is stock that's either been sat there for a long time or we've found in the warehouse and it's a little dated. The Sandberg powerbanks are a steal, even though they are cheaper than the mass produced Chinese stuff out there they come with 5-year warranties.

I may be wrong about this but I'm guessing yours is a "passive" adapter rather than an "active" adapter. The terms passive and active are a bit misleading. Best information i found after a quick google were these paragraphs:

The “Type-1” adapters which are commonly sold as “passive” rely on the DisplayPort source (like a video card) supporting DisplayPort++ (aka Dual-mode). When certain pins are pulled up to 3.3 volts or down to ground through specific resistor values, the physical DisplayPort pins are programmed to output the HDMI/DVI TMDS protocol instead of the LVDS DisplayPort packet protocol. But the TMDS protocol is still output at 3.3 volts which won’t work with a DVI/HDMI monitor designed for 5 volts. So the type-1 adapters include active electronics to level shift the 3.3 volt signaling to 5 volts. The signaling is limited to 165MHz bandwidth so screen refresh rates and resolutions are limited too. Aside from the level shifters, additional electronics are needed to regulate power – typically the 3.3 volts supplied from the DisplayPort connector on pin 20 is boost-converted to 5 volts. There is also a circuit to handle the DDC communications as well. So there is a lot of stuff inside your “passive” DisplayPort adapter.

Type-2 adapters also pass-through the existing TMDS signal and level shift it from 3.3v->5v, but include more advanced integrated circuits and are able to operate at up to 300MHz with HDMI thus enabling 4K@ 30Hz output per HDMI 1.4 spec. Depending on the vendor, these adapters may be marketed as “active” or “passive” so you really need to read the fine print to understand the specs of the adapter.

Finally there are truly “active” adapters that do not rely on DisplayPort++/Dual-Mode at all. Instead they are able to decode the LVDS DisplayPort packet protocol in real-time and re-encode it into HDMI/DVI compatible TMDS protocol. DisplayPort->Dual-link DVI-D adapters are true “active” adapters. As are “EyeFinity” certified adapters. Some active adapters need to be powered by a USB port, however, most adapters available today are powered by pin 20 on the DisplayPort source which supplies 3.3 volts at up to 500mA. These truly active adapters are expensive but allow more flexibility with refresh rates and resolutions depending on which integrated circuit is used inside.

TLDR - Active adapters support both Multimode (DP++) and Single-mode DisplayPort output signals and higher refresh rates/resolutions.
