that appears to be a 4K display with


HDMI 1.4 input (inadequate), and

DisplayPort 1.2 input


HDMI 1.4 is only good for up to 4K at 30 Hz. Your M2 Mac Studio from 2022 or later can do better, but if I have the specs correct, the display itself can NOT do better over HDMI.


a USB-C to DisplayPort adapter/cable for this high data rate must have ONE meter or less cable before the 'bulge' of the electronics of the adapter. [a two-meter adapter/cable with the electronics in the distal end is not good enough for this data rate.]
