Setup and usability guidance
- Step 1: Confirm the computer or graphics output is full-size DisplayPort and the display input is full-size HDMI.
- Step 2: Connect DisplayPort to the source and HDMI to the receiving display.
- Step 3: Select the correct HDMI input, then begin with a common 1080p mode.
- Step 4: Choose 4K30 only if the source, DisplayPort output and HDMI display all support it.
- Step 5: For removal, press the DisplayPort release button before pulling the plug straight out.
After setup, use the display information screen or operating-system display panel to confirm the resolution, refresh rate, HDR state and active audio device actually negotiated.

Compatible devices and systems
Match connector shape, signal direction and port capability
- Desktop PCs and graphics cards with compatible full-size DisplayPort output
- Laptops and docks with full-size DisplayPort output that supports the required conversion
- HDMI televisions, monitors and projectors
- Windows, macOS or Linux computers where the host graphics hardware supports the selected external-display mode
Examples do not guarantee every generation or port reaches the cable ceiling; check both device manuals.
Avoid the common mismatch
Check before buying
- The route suits 5m, including connector clearance and relaxed service slack.
- The ports match: Full-size DisplayPort male to full-size HDMI Type-A male.
- DisplayPort connects to the source computer or graphics output; HDMI connects to the monitor, television or projector. HDMI-source-to-DisplayPort-display use is not supported.
- The source must provide compatible video over its DisplayPort output. The official exact regional page identifies this as a passive cable, so source-port conversion support matters.
- The desired mode stays within: Up to 4K at 30Hz, with lower modes supported by the connected source and display.
- Any intermediate device supports the same video, audio and content-protection requirements.
Scope and limitations
What this product does
- Converts a compatible DisplayPort source signal for an HDMI display.
- Carries digital video and source-to-display audio.
- Supports mirror or extended desktop modes controlled by the computer.

Care and installation practice
What to do

Product-specific FAQ
What is the verified video guidance for UGREEN 10204?
Up to 4K at 30Hz, with lower modes supported by the connected source and display. The cable is verified for DisplayPort-source-to-HDMI-display operation up to 4K30. It is not an HDMI-to-DisplayPort cable and does not promise 4K60, 4K120 or adaptive-sync gaming.
Is the cable directional?
DisplayPort connects to the source computer or graphics output; HDMI connects to the monitor, television or projector. HDMI-source-to-DisplayPort-display use is not supported.
What ports and source capability are required?
Full-size DisplayPort male to full-size HDMI Type-A male. The source must provide compatible video over its DisplayPort output. The official exact regional page identifies this as a passive cable, so source-port conversion support matters.
Will every compatible-looking device reach the maximum mode?
No. The source hardware, port version, graphics driver, operating system, display input, selected colour format and every intermediate device determine the negotiated result.
Does it need a driver or separate power adapter?
No separate cable driver or external power adapter is listed. The host graphics system may still need the correct driver and display settings.
Can I connect a PlayStation, Xbox or Switch to a DisplayPort monitor?
No. Those devices are HDMI sources, while this cable only works from a compatible DisplayPort source to an HDMI display.
Is SKU 10204 active or passive?
The official exact UGREEN regional page identifies it as passive. No external power supply is listed, and source-port compatibility remains important.
What should I check if there is no picture?
Verify connector direction and port type, select the correct display input, reseat both ends, test a direct connection, lower the resolution/refresh rate, and restart or update the graphics system if needed.
Can it be routed inside a wall or ceiling?
No concealed-installation rating is claimed here. Check the physical cable markings and local installation requirements before any in-wall, ceiling or conduit route.
What is included in the package?
1 × UGREEN 10204 5m DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable. Devices, adapters and cable-management accessories shown in use images are not included.
