Adapters don't have specific support for "MST"; that doesn't exist. But adapter support on MST outputs will depend on the device. Some work with both passive and active adapters, some only work with active adapters, and some don't work with any adapters. If you've tried passive adapters already then you should try an active adapter.

Hi all,

 

I'm looking for a specific cable. I need an Active Displayport to HDMI cable that supports MST. 

 

Basically

A regular Displayport to HDMI Cable WILL NOT Work, the cable MUST SUPPORT MST

 

 

This is likely a niche adapter but I'm hoping one exists. I can find all sorts of Displayport MST -> Multi HDMI hubs but I just need a cable

PLEASE QUOTE ME IF YOU ARE REPLYING TO ME
