It was an example of an active adapter, it doesn't need to be this one.

Of course not.  And thanks.  I ended up going with this:

https://www.amazon.com/Fusion4k-DisplayPort-Cable-1-3-Professional/dp/B01M1LERDU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1490464288&sr=1-1&keywords=Fusion4k+DisplayPort+Cable+1.3+-+Professional+Series+Ultra+HD+%2810+Feet%29

@Qwark,  It's okay.  I was kinda wanting an ultra wide anyway, and I kinda feel like I got one.  Without those extra pixels, there wouldn't be any black bar, there would just be "no tv taking up that space."  I'll take the black bars, because when I switch back to my PC monitor, I get more screen space, and I do get to use it for something.  More is better.

Watch out!

That's a DisplayPort cable, not an adapter from DP to HDMI.
