Aluminum USB-C to DisplayPort Cable

This 3 ft cable connects USB-C source devices to DisplayPort displays for video and audio transfer. It supports resolutions up to 4K at 60 Hz with plug-and-play operation. The aluminum housing provides a durable, space-grey finish.

Passive Uni-Directional Signal Path

The cable carries a one-way signal from a USB-C port with DP 1.2 Alt Mode to a DisplayPort input. No external power or driver installation is required for normal use. It operates within standard USB-C power delivery limits for the connection.

Aluminum Connectors and Fixed Length

Male-to-male terminals with aluminum shells resist wear during repeated insertion. The 3-foot length suits desk setups where the host and display sit close together. Buyers whose USB-C ports lack Alt Mode support cannot use this cable for video output.

Questions about this item

How do I install this cable and what step is often missed?

Connect the USB-C end to a host port that supports DP 1.2 Alt Mode, then plug the DisplayPort end into the display; the step often missed is verifying Alt Mode support on the USB-C port.

What maintenance or replacement will this cable need later?

No scheduled maintenance is required; replace the cable only if the aluminum connectors loosen or the 3 ft cable shows physical damage that interrupts the 4K 60Hz signal.

What limit appears first during sustained 4K 60Hz use?

The 3 ft length and 1 Gbps rated speed set the practical ceiling; beyond this distance or bandwidth the 3840x2160 60Hz image may degrade.
