Dear Community!
I have a late 2013 Mac Pro (trashcan) with a single HDMI 1.4 port.
I plan on getting an ultrawide 3440x1440p monitor and I wonder if I will be able to connect the device to the monitor and get a 3440x1440p 60hz experience.
IF not are there any converters that will help me achieve that?
Thank you!
The monitor

Not through the HDMI port.
You'll need an adapter to go from one of the Thunderbolt 2 ports on the Mac Pro to the Display Port on the Monitor.
Something like this: link-> Silkland 8K Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.4 Cable, [8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz, 2K@240Hz] HDR, DSC1.2, G-Sync FreeSync, Mini DP [Thunderbolt 2 Compatible] - Amazon.com

The built-in HDMI port only supports HDMI 1.4, which, as Phil0124 says, is not fast enough for what you want.
The built-in HDMI port can be used for 4K, but only at 30Hz refresh rate
