Are displayport 1.1 and displayport 1.2 cables physically different?

Are there physical differences in the cables, or is it just the monitor-device driver?
If there is, then how to distinguish them, because of the cables presented in the display port stores, they do not write a version, except that only in the apple type, and then I'm not sure.

they say that the cables are not different:

Despite what you may read, there is no such thing as a DisplayPort 1.1 cable and DisplayPort 1.2 cable. A standard DisplayPort cable, including the so-call DisplayPort 1.1 cables, will work for any DisplayPort configuration including the new capabilities enabled by DisplayPort 1.2, including 4K and multi-stream capabilities. All standard DisplayPort cables support RBR, HBR (High Bit Rate), and HBR2 (High Bit Rate 2), which can support 4K at 60Hz, or up to four 1080p displays using multi-stream.
