The Surface Dock has 2 mini-DP output jacks and my monitors luckily have DP input ports. At first, I thought these cables were bad because they just wouldn't work with my Surface Dock at all. If you have the Surface Dock and these don't work for you, don't be quick to blame the cables because it's most likely not the cables (for this particular scenario which I will describe). The Surface Pro Dock worked with the Display Port when it first came out, but then Intel changed their software drivers for the display chip inside the Surface Dock. Since Windows 10 looks for and updates everything to the latest version of the software, they dutifully update Intel drivers whenever Intel releases new ones. The problem is that the *newer* version of the Intel graphics drivers (on the Surface Pro 7) doesn't work with the Surface Dock . . . AT ALL! This took me a while to figure out and the solution is very stupid, but it works. You have to manually load an older version of the Intel IRIS graphics drivers for the Intel Integrated graphics. Specifically, the version that I had to use was 25.20.100.7101which comes from an older version of the Surface Pro 7 drivers package which is "SurfacePro7_Win10_18362_19.103.34215.0.msi" You only need the graphics drivers from that package, not everything else. Simply trying to run that package won't work because you'll get a message that there are newer drivers and it will quit. Rather than trying to explain everything here, I'll just say that do an internet search and if you're tech-savvy, you'll be able to figure it out. I'll include a few photos that show the versions that work. Unless Intel releases a patch then this is the best solution I could find to get my Surface Pro 7 to work with dual DP monitors via the Surface Dock. If you have a tech-savvy friend, just show them the photos and they should be able to get your Surface Dock working with these cables. All of that was just to put some of the other reviews into context. There could be some people who received defective cables, but if they mention issues with Intel graphics, then it's probably not a faulty cable. Again, this is just my own personal experience with the cables specifically on the Surface Pro 7 with the Surface Dock (gen 1). YMMV. Overall, this is a great value to get things working for my 2 1920x1080 monitors. It's a good quality cable and having them as a 2-pack was exactly the solution I needed. I hope this might help anyone else who is having the same issue. I would buy these again and would definitely recommend them for the specific devices that I mention above. Great quality, great price. Review: Screens were blanking out, time for a new cord! - Very nice cord. My old cord looked good too? but this new one has waaaaay better connection. My monitors don't blank out anymore. Very simple and cheap fix for me. ## Features - SUPERIOR STABILITY: This bi-directional Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4 cord (Mini DP to DP) connects a computer, desktop, laptop, or workstation equipped with Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 1/2 to a DisplayPort monitor or projector. It also supports DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort connections, providing stable audio and video transmission. - INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE: The Moread Mini DP to DP 1.4 cable supports up to 8K@60Hz (7680x4320), 4K@240Hz (3840x2160, UHD), 2K@240Hz (2560x1440, QHD), and 1080p@240Hz (1920x1080, Full HD), plus HDR and audio pass-through for uncompressed digital 7.1, 5.1, and 2-channel audio. Maximum resolution and refresh rate require compatible DP 1.4 hardware with DSC support; older Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 1/2 devices may support lower resolutions. - HIGH RELIABILITY: DisplayPort 1.4 HBR3 delivers bandwidth up to 32.4Gbps for stable high-resolution video. Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion, while bare copper conductors and foil-and-braid shielding help maintain reliable signals and reduce electromagnetic interference. The low-profile Mini DisplayPort connector keeps adjacent ports accessible; the locking DisplayPort connector provides a secure fit and releases with the built-in button for safe unplugging. - BROAD COMPATIBILITY: Compatible with Apple MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini, and Mac Pro models equipped with Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt 1/2, plus Windows laptops, desktops, workstations, tablets, and other Mini DisplayPort-enabled devices. - 5 Year WARRANTY: Exclusive Moread Unconditional 5-year Warranty ensures long-time satisfaction of your purchase; Friendly and easy-to-reach customer service is always available to resolve your questions promptly. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0786FNLDT | | Best Sellers Rank | #38 in Computer DisplayPort Cables | | Brand | Moread | | Brand Name | Moread | | Cable Type | Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Monitor, PC, Server | | Connectivity Technology | Mini Displayport, DisplayPort | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Male | | Connector Type | DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, Thunderbolt1/2 | | Customer Package Type | Plastic Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,145 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 32400 megabytes_per_second | | Ethernet Cable Category | Cat 5 | | Ethernet cable category | Cat 5 | | Frequency | 60 hertz | | Gauge | 30 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor, Outdoor | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Weight | 1.36 ounces | | Manufacturer | Moread | | Model | MDP2DP-C-3-B | | Model Name | MDP2DP-C-3-B | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 20 | | Other Special Features of the Product | with Locking Latch | | Part Number | MDP2DP-C-3-B | | Special Feature | with Locking Latch | | Specification Met | CE, FCC, RoHS | | Unit Count | 5 Count | | Warranty Description | Exclusive Moread Unconditional 5-year Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Moread - **Cable Type:** Display Port - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop, Laptop, MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini, Mac Pro, Monitor, PC - **Connector Type:** DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort(Thunderbolt 2) - **Special Feature:** Data Transfer, High Speed, Lightweight ## Images ![Moread 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 3ft - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QydpiLL7L.jpg) ![Moread 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 3ft - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Unh+d6+LL.jpg) ![Moread 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 3ft - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61H8kcTnSqL.jpg) ![Moread 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 3ft - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710kKmBBuPL.jpg) ![Moread 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 3ft - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81MAVZyz4bL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Item Package Quantity** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They *DO* work for connecting monitors to the Microsoft Surface Dock *by S***H on August 14, 2020* I got these to connect 2 monitors to my Surface Pro 7 using the Surface Dock (1 gen model).

Very simple and cheap fix for me. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome! *by C***Y on February 19, 2026* Works Great for my laptop to monitor, works fine does what I need it to do. I mainly got this so I can hook my laptop and ps4 up to this monitor that I have, since my monitor only has 1 HDMI and 1 display port I figured I could put the mini display port in the laptop and HDMI in the ps4. solves what I need 10ft more than enough for me works great easy to use. fits good. can bend etc. its compatible. my laptop to monitor I'm getting about 143.85hz feel robbed of that 0.15 ha-ha but maybe that's because I think my stuff is 1080p? might be a bit more than 2k or less I'm not sure I'm not very techy like that but no issue at all. ## Frequently Bought Together - Moread Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable, 3 Feet, Gold-Plated DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort (4K@60Hz, 2K@144Hz) Mini DP to DP Display Cable - Black - Microsoft Surface Dock (Pd9-00003),Black - BENFEI Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable, 0.9 Meter Mini DP to HDMI Cable (Thunderbolt Compatible) with MacBook Air/Pro, Surface Pro/Dock, Monitor, Projector --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/57771261-moread-8k-mini-displayport-to-displayport-cable-1-4-3ft](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/57771261-moread-8k-mini-displayport-to-displayport-cable-1-4-3ft) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
