Pros
This cable has one male displayport connector and one male hdmi connector, and is available at varying lengths. When dual-mode chipset detects that a dvi or hdmi passive adapter is attached, it switches to dvi/hdmi mode which uses the 4-lane main disp... Read More
Cable works perfectly with a thinkpad t410 (integrated intel graphics, windows7) and a harmon/kardon receiver. Worked well on my thinkpad t410 with a denon receiver. Can also be used to connect a lcd to a panasonic plasma tv.

Highlights
Quality
I now have a good quality video signal and sound using this cable.
It works great, good video and audio quality.
I'd far rather just buy a quality product first and not spend hours troubleshooting what turns out to be a junky cable.
It has a latch on the displayport end that requires you to press down before pulling the cable from your laptop.
Price
For the price it is a great deal.
I bought this inexpensive cable to connect my lenovo w520 to any hdmi port from the display port++ it transfers audio and video well.
There are lots of cables and adapters that claim to be active, but most inexpensive ones don't work as intended - this one does.

Packaging/appearance
Works great right out of the packaging.

This is the first displayport connector ive seen that has a “lock” on it to secure it to the port in the form of a small bit of metal that is retracted when you hold a depressable part of the plug to remove it

And yes the cable does support the hdcp protocol highdefinition content protection for viewing streaming services on your tv so you dont have to rely on another device for such things though your video card youre connecting to must also support hdcp
