Question 1

What is the length?  It is not specified.

Accepted Answer

The length (without it being in front of me) is about 5" from end to end. Just enough for a slight bend needed to connect your two device without fear of a tight pinch. This is a great product that I have used for multiple connection types. I would recommend this product and have purchased it a few times to increase stock. My recommendation is to buy.

Question 2

Hi....I need to do the opposite; go from a HDMI port on my PC to a Display Port on my monitor; will this adapter do that?
Thanks....Larry

I can't test that with my own gear, but HDMI and DisplayPort are both bi-directional, so it seems likely that it would work.
From the HDMI standard website:
HDMI supports two-way communication between the video source (such as a DVD player) and the DTV, enabling new functionality
From the DisplayPort standard website:
DisplayPort delivers the highest audio, display, and bi-directional communications performance in the industry.

Question 3

How can I connect a hdmi PC to a display port monitor?

Accepted Answer

Darryl L is right, they exist but are very expensive.

Question 4

As I understand it, HDMI cables are limited to 30 fps, while Displayport can go up to 60 fps. If I use an adapter (such as this), will I receive the benefit of 60 fps, or will I still be limited to 30 fps?

Sorry, Jacob, but I don't know the answer to your question!  I don't use this machine for gaming, so refresh rate is not important to me.  I would guess that only StarTech would know the answer to your question.
