To add to this, virtually all GPUs out there with DP are DP++ and will not require an active adapter.
Consumers will almost never need to consider an active adapter for DP to HDMI, as well as single link DVI. HDMI to DP will always require an active (powered) adapter. As would DP to dual link DVI, VGA, or component.
