    All Display Port cables are compatible with all versions of the standard.

    Subpar cables may not be able to take advantage of all the features present in a newer version. But if you bought a high quality cable for v1, it would still have full support for 2.1.

      That’s actually the same as USB C, as I just learned. The pinout hasn’t changed, so if you have a good quality USB 3.1 cable it’ll work with 3.2x2 just fine
