Does the adapter fit into the back of the monitor, HDMI => DP, and you have an HDMI cable from the ps5 to the adapter?

This should work.  Try another cable.  See if the monitor can work with  a cable signal (tv box) or any dvd player with HDMI out.

 

If the adapter is at the pc5 and you have a DisplayPort cable, did the DP cable come with the monitor? If you bought a DP cable there is a possible pin 20 problem that could cause problems with the monitor.   Pin 20 problem according to Google.

Discussion at AMD about the pin 20 problem and one of their video boards.

 

If the display shows a warning about resolution or bad signal then the ps5 is generating a display that the monitor cannot show.  See if the ps5 can boot in some type of safe mode with low resolution and refresh.

I think this article describes the problem

 

Display port adapters are typically one way.  You need to go from ps5 with HDMI to Monitor with display port. 

 

Something like this

 

Note that it supports 30hz refresh at 4k resolution.  Your monitor is capable of 144hz so 30hz is may not look good.

 

This is another one and is rated for PS3 PS4 PS5 but you need a Display Port cable and is probably better.
