AI-generated summary
For £15-ish ex-VAT, this looks like a sensible “get it working” DisplayPort-to-HDMI lead rather than a premium long-term setup. In day-to-day B2B use (laptop/desktop dock to a monitor/projector), a DP1.4 → HDMI 2.x cable is exactly what you want—assuming your source actually supports the high refresh/resolution mode you’re aiming for. The fact it’s only 2 m also helps: fewer signal issues than longer runs, and you’re less likely to get the usual “it’s fine at 1080p but not at max settings” disappointment.
Who should buy: offices standardising multi-monitor or connecting PCs/laptops with DisplayPort to HDMI-only screens, meeting rooms with occasional swaps, and anyone who wants a short cable without overpaying. Who should think twice: if you’re trying to run bleeding-edge 4K/8K at the very top refresh from a range of laptops/docks (some are picky), or if this is for mission-critical AV where you can’t troubleshoot—because cables can’t compensate for a source/dock that’s not negotiating the right mode. If you need absolute reliability for demanding displays, I’d still rather buy from a more consistently benchmarked brand line—but for the price and length, this is a reasonable buy for typical business installs.
