Distance between devices: Measure the actual distance between the source device (e.g., computer, game console) and the display device (e.g., monitor, projector). This is the basis for determining the length of cable required. Make sure to leave some margin so that you have the flexibility to adjust the position when cabling.
Installation environment: Consider the path the cable will take, including any corners, obstacles or areas that need to be bypassed.
areas that need to be bypassed. This may affect the total length required, as the cable may need to be longer to ensure smooth wiring without causing damage.
Future Expandability: If you anticipate moving equipment or adding new displays in the future, choosing a slightly longer cable can facilitate future adjustments and avoid having to purchase new cables.
Signal quality: While DP cables support longer distance transmission (up to 15 meters), cables that are too long may affect signal quality due to increased resistance, capacitance and inductance. Therefore, it is important to consider the quality standards of the cable while meeting the length requirements to ensure stable signal transmission.
Brand and certification: Choose a well-known brand and through the relevant certification (such as the HDMI Association certification) of the DP cable, you can ensure that the product quality and performance in line with the standard, to reduce the potential risks caused by quality issues.
