StarTech DPBOOST Overview

Amplify the strength of your DisplayPort signal to extend your video source up to 65 ft. over standard DP cabling. This DisplayPort signal booster lets you increase the signal strength of your DP video source using standard DisplayPort cables. You can achieve resolutions up to 4K at 60Hz, and depending on your desired resolution, the booster supports varying distances up to 65 ft. (20 m) away at 1080p 60Hz resolution. For inline installations, you can place the booster between two DisplayPort cables, up to 50 ft. in length at the video input, and up to 15 ft. in length at the video output.
Maintains Ultra HD 4K video signals
When extending DisplayPort over long distances using standard video cabling, higher resolutions can become unavailable. Using the DP signal booster ensures that you can depend on UHD resolutions up to 4K at 60Hz at up to 22 ft. (7 m). You can achieve even greater distances with lower resolution support - up to 4K at 30Hz, at up to 42 ft. (13 m), and 1080p at 60Hz at up to 65 ft. (20 m).
Easy and discreet installation
With its small form factor, the DisplayPort booster is easy to hide, for a discreet installation. It includes mounting hardware, so installing it is hassle-free. By extending your video signal using standard DP cables, the DisplayPort booster is a cost-effective alternative to more expensive extension systems that require the installation of a CAT5 or CAT6 cabling infrastructure.
Compatible with varying distances
The booster makes it easy to adjust your DisplayPort signal strength based on the distance of your cables, with equalization adjustment buttons. This means that you can adjust the amplification of your DisplayPort signal, to ensure your DisplayPort signal will be flawless even at distances up to 65 ft. (20 m). Support for varying distances makes the booster perfect for multi-device deployment across large institutions, such as boardrooms in corporate offices, classrooms in schools, or waiting rooms in hospitals, as these applications may require varied distances in different rooms.
The DPBOOST is backed by a 2-year StarTech.com warranty and free lifetime technical support.

StarTech DPBOOST Reviews

mostly works; hard to adjust

My three monitors are about 12' cable length from my computer, and two of them kept blanking out. With the boosters, one works fine and one works with occasional random blankouts. There are "up" and "down" adjustment buttons, but no feedback as to which of the "ten modes" you're in, or indication of if they wrap or what. This makes it hard to adjust.

Excellent!

I needed this booster to use a 27" Eizo display 10 meters from a TouchBar MacBook Pro. I used a 1.80m Startech USB-C to Display Port cable from the MBP to the booster, and a 10m DP to DP cable from the booster to the screen. Turned all on, and everything worked fine. Not all the cables and booster I tried before worked. This one does.
