You don't need any special DisplayPort cable, any will work.

There is no DP 1.1, 1.2 cable, they are all the same. The difference is in the port and the electronic parts on the input and output devices.

Some DisplayPort cables may fail at higher speeds. This is only due to manufacturing tolerances. All DisplayPort cables are designed and wired the same way and will support the same features, the only difference is in manufacturing tolerances. If you need higher speeds (such as 1440p 144 Hz) there are certifications available to ensure that a cable will handle that speed (HBR2, HBR3). If you don't need higher speeds, then any DP cable will work just as well as any other. DisplayPort cables are rated by the speed they can support (HBR, HBR2, HBR3). Using "version numbers" for cables is improper, but is commonly used by retailers because people will buy them.

 

All DP cables are compatible with all DP devices.
