I ordered two of these as my whole setup is HDMI based (preran cables, KVM etc) but most GPUs have more DPs than HDMI. Also my work PC is all DP based. I had some adapters but apparently some of these only support HD as I could not get 4k to work on them with the work PC. So ordered two that state they support 4k. Need at least one to feed my secondary 4k display for my personal machine, and also one for my work PC to connect to the KVM for the primary monitor. For secondary I just use DP cable and switch the input manually.
Well every machine I tested these on, they aren't even detected. Both in Linux and in windows. Both of them don't work, so I feel the odds of both being faulty is pretty slim. Anything else I can try?
Also the HD one that worked with my work PC also does not work on any of my PCs, so this has me even more baffled. Where can I even begin to troubleshoot this?
EDIT: Forgot to link to the adapters I bought.
This is the adapter: https://www.primecables.ca/p-362078...12a-to-4k-hdmi-active-adapter-black-monoprice
And to go from mini to normal: https://www.primecables.ca/p-308340...rbolt-to-displayport-female-adapter-monoprice
