Your laptop's HDMI port won't plug into that DisplayPort monitor. A passive adapter won't cut it either — you need an active converter that actually handles the signal. This SIMPLECOM TH201 does exactly that. Plug in, power it via USB, and you're displaying up to 4K@60Hz with 7.1 surround sound. No drivers. No software. No guessing.
One important thing: this is one-way only. HDMI source into DisplayPort output. Not the reverse. If your setup runs the other direction, this won't help — and we'd rather flag it now than have you return a box.
2 m of cable. Male HDMI to male DisplayPort. Compliant with HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4. EDID passthrough keeps your display happy. Works out of the box on Blu-ray players, game consoles, laptops, or any HDMI source feeding a DisplayPort monitor or projector.
