Club 3D (m)DP1.2 to HDMI2.0 UHD Active Adapter officially launched

Updated on 26-04-2016 in Adapters and Cables
65 on 25-11-2015

Club 3D launches the first ‘Real’ (mini)DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapters.

For the past years Club 3D has been offering a growing range of high quality Audio/ Video adapters and cables which provide the best connection between your Graphics solution and Display device.

From PC Gamers to Graphic designers and from Video editors to Air Traffic Controllers; Club 3D’s high quality Adapters and Cables find their way to a wide variety of applications.

Today we announce an important addition to our A/V Adapters range; the highly anticipated (Mini) DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapters.

In the world of PC Gaming, a 60Hz refresh rate is widely regarded as a requirement for a smooth and fluid gaming experience. Until HDMI 2.0 was announced in 2013, it was not possible to display games on any Ultra HD Monitor or Television lacking a DisplayPort 1.2 input at 60Hz because of bandwidth limitations of the HDMI interface. Key advantage of the HDMI 2.0 over the 1.4 specification is the increased bandwidth, which enables the full 4K UHD 3840x 2160p experience at 60Hz.

With the new Club 3D DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapter we aim to provide the smoothest 60Hz solution for anyone who is looking to use their HDMI 2.0 enabled 4K UHD Television or monitor for living room gaming or (semi) professional applications like photo and video editing.

As the HDMI 2.0 interface finds its way to more Ultra HD TV’s and monitors, Club 3D maximizes the compatibility between High End AMD, Nvidia and Intel graphics solutions and 4K UHD Display devices with the CAC-1070 and 1170 Active Adapters, available end of December. MSRP $ 35 or € 32 (ex local sales tax).

Hi All,

This item should become available by the end of December and if we are unlucky begining of January. For the US it will become available at Amazon.
I expect end-user price in North America to be around 39,- U$D (without vat) and in Western Europe around 39,- € incl VAT.

on 22-12-2015

Hi Bhuvsta, it’s from DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 only, so no bi-directional functionality. We have no plans to offer an HDMI 2.0 to DP 1.2 adapter.

Will it be normal DP or Mini DP? because in the above description, “the first ‘Real’ (mini)DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 4K UHD Active Adapter.” (i have very little experience with dp cables so i am not solid on what they look like) however that appears to be a normal DP connector.

on 22-12-2015

Hi LoneNF, we will offer the: 

CAC-1070: DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0: Link to CAC-1070 page

CAC-1170: mDP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0: Link to CAC-1170 page

 What sort of graphics card are you using?

on 29-12-2015

i am currently using an AMD Radeon R9 390.
also, if this is out already, could you link me to the amazon page? (i cant seem to find it which is why im unsure if it is actually being sold yet)

I already ordered this on Amazon.com.  When can I expect this to be availabe for Amazon so they can ship it to me?

thanks,

on 23-12-2015

Dear Peter, thank you for choosing this adapter. The first batch arrives in our warehouse on 30 December and will be shipped out to Amazon the same day. Most likely it will be shipped by Amazon on 4 or 5 January but I understand there are quite a few pre orders already. Best regards,

on 23-12-2015

Thank you for replying and letting me know the timing on when I can expect this to arrive.  I was hoping for before the new year but as long as this works, it will be worth the wait.

thanks again!

Hi Barga901, we start shipping the cables from 30 December. A couple of days after it should reach resellers active in Italy. Most likely it will be offered first by Amazon.it, conrad.it and Alternate.it. It’s listed at Alternate already but the price mentioned here is probably not definitive:

30 Dec was what you promised.

2 Jan now, still no cable =(

on 04-01-2016

Now 5 days later, still no cable =(((

on 04-01-2016

Take a deep breath…..now look up at your monitor or phone and read royalkings reply just above. Estimating shipping from amazon on the 4th or 5th. Now obviously the only information club can offer us…when they received their stock on Dec 30th and then sent out for distribution. I would assume my reply is all you’ll need, unless you plan on contacting amazon?

on 04-01-2016

I just spoke with Amazon and they have no clue it seems when this will be in stock and if they did, they would have updated the item’s status on their website.  I really hope this is not vaporware.  Please update as to when Amazon will receive this product and when we can expect Amazon to update their website to say “In Stock”.

Thanks,

~Peter

Hey Peter,

Hope this helps! I just received shipping notification from amazon. est. January 8th to the east coast.

Hey Mark good news!  I also just checked and Amazon has updated their status as saying this friday as the delivery date.  Awesome!  thanks again RoyalKing and Club3d!

Yeah, these do not work AT ALL with at least certain TVs, maybe with many TVs. I absolutely cannot get my fury X and vizio m50-c1 TV to utilize this device and it’s infuriating and a gigantic waste of my time.

 

Thanks, club3d!

Sorry to hear that, got mines today and it works great with my AMD 390x!  Just as promised.  I got the Spectre 4k 43″.

I just ordered from Amazon in the US and it says temporarily out of stock. Do you know when they will be back instock and ship? Also does this adapter support a 21:9 Aspect Ratio? I have 3 LG 29″ monitors (29UM57). I am using a Visontek Radeon HD 7750 3M Graphics card with 2 HDMI out and one mini DP. I ordered the CAC-1170 adapter in hopes that this will give me my three monitor setup. Does this adapter support AMD Eyefinity? I need 2560×1080 at 60hz. Any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you in advance for your responses.

on 15-01-2016

Hi Bach0183, yes you should be able to run this in Eyefinity 3. Given the resolution of your LG monitors it’s not required to have a CAC-1170, our CAC-1153 Active HDMI adapter will work as well. If you want a more future proof adapter for possible upgrade to 4K UHD panels in the future your best choice is the CAC-1170. It’s expected to be back in stock at Amazon US early february. 

Link to the CAC-1153 on Amazon US: http://www.amazon.com/Club3D-DisplayPort-300mhz-Adapter-CAC-1153/dp/B00SOXO5B0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452852054&sr=8-1&keywords=cac-1153

We get many questions on availability of the CAC-1070 and 1170. Currently the 1170 (mini DP version) is sold out. New stock is expected early february. The 1070 (normal DP version) can be ordered with a variety of resellers who carry stock. 

For availability info please check the following links: 

http://geizhals.eu/club-3d-aktiver-displayport-1-2-hdmi-2-0-adapter-cac-1070-a1360939.html

In the US it can be (pre) ordered at Amazon, new stock is on its way!

Hi RoyalKing – Do you perhaps have any idea when this adapter will be in stock at Amazon again?  I have ordered one, but it’s been out of stock for more than two weeks…

Cheers

Hi Rippedgeek,

Amazon will receive stock again last week of March, so still a few weeks to go but i can see “light at the end of tunnel”.

Is this HDMI 2.0 only or 2.0a compliant also?

on 04-03-2016

Hi Careers,
We have no confirmation on that yet.
I know that he chip inside supports it, so hardware wise i don’t see a reason why it would not be able to work. But let us wait until the technical guy’s from the factory confirm that …

Superb, thank you.  3 weeks is not too bad.  Running my NUC6i5SYK through my Sony KD65X8500C at 4K/30Khz and it could certainly be better. 

Thanks again Toyota4Runner. 🙂

on 03-03-2016

Don’t hold your breath mate … (about it working).  I have a similar setup to you and can’t get the adapter to work.  I have a NUC5i5RYK and a Sony KD65X9300C with Monster 27 Gbps cable and can’t get it to 4K/60Hz with the adapter.  I’m probably going to have to get rid of the NUC and build a more expensive HTPC with a dedicated GPU and HDMI 2.0 out to avoid this nonsense.

on 10-03-2016

Please check this: https://insights.club-3d.com/thread/how-i-got-4k-60hz-working-with-intel-graphics/

Also i have feedback  from many users who have it working on Skylake HD520/530/540 graphics, so that should certainly not be an issue. With HD6000 it is a bit more tricky, but as you can see on the above link, this user has it working even on a HD4600 …

We are in the same boat I have Samsung 4k tv and msi r9 380 only support 30khz thru hdmi and I expect get 4k/60hz with the adapter @rippedgeek

on 10-03-2016

here is my standard checklist

* Color Depth (often default set to 16 bits or even 32 bits) need to be set to 8 bits (when running 4:4:4) or 12Bit when running in 4:2:2.

I am quite sure the adapter does not support higher color depth than 12bit.

 

* Make sure the HDMI port your using on the TV is HDMI 2.0 capable or 3840x2160p 60HZ capable.

Often TV’s have like 4 HDMI ports, but only 1 is suited for “2.0” standard.

* Make sure the HDMI cable you are using can do HDMI2.0 or 18Gbps.

* On many TV’s you need to turn on “UHD Color” manually in the settings of your TV for the HDMI port to which your pc is connected.

* Also it could help when connecting 2 screens, to set the screen connected thru the Adapter as second/secondary screen

* Try making a custom resolution and choose timing standard CVT-RB (reduced Blanking)
