Eaton P580‑006 – DisplayPort Cable 4K 60 Hz M/M

Overview

The Eaton P580‑006 is a passive DisplayPort video/audio cable with latching male‑to‑male connectors designed to connect DisplayPort‑capable sources (PCs, graphics cards, media players) to DisplayPort displays and monitors. It is deployed by AV engineers and IT infrastructure teams to ensure secure, high‑definition digital video transmission in both workstation and digital signage installations.

This cable supports the DisplayPort 1.2 standard, enabling Ultra High Definition (UHD) 3840 × 2160 @ 60 Hz video as well as standard 1080p and legacy resolutions with integrated digital audio. The passive design means no signal conditioning or active amplification is present — it strictly conducts DisplayPort signals end‑to‑end.

The latching connector mechanism helps prevent inadvertent disconnection in structured AV racks, media cabinets, and workstation environments. The cable’s 6 ft (1.83 m) length is suitable for typical rack or desktop routing without excess slack that could obstruct airflow or complicate cable management.

Physically configured with a PVC jacket and gold‑plated contacts, this cable is intended for indoor use in controlled environments — offices, technical workspaces, AV racks, and classroom media installs. The black OCT‑rated jacket fits standard cable management pathways in 19‑inch racks and AV conduits.

A practical deployment scenario includes connecting a DisplayPort output on a desktop workstation to a DisplayPort input on a high‑resolution monitor in a meeting room or control room display wall. This model is not suitable where extended distances beyond 6 ft are required without active signal conditioning or where unshielded runs pass through industrial EMI environments.
