USB-C to DisplayPort 1.2 active cable

This active cable connects a USB-C source with DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 to a DisplayPort monitor, TV or projector. It is built for laptop users, desktop owners and MacBook operators who need a direct video link without driver installation. Plug-and-play operation makes it suitable for quick setup in office or home environments. The Taiwanese chipset handles protocol conversion inside the connector housing.

DisplayPort Alt Mode and Thunderbolt 3 requirement

The cable only functions when the host USB-C port carries a native DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 signal. Standard USB-C ports that lack video output will not transmit a picture, so buyers must verify their device specification before purchase. No software driver can add this capability. Compatibility covers laptops, desktops, MacBooks, iPads and Samsung DEX devices that meet the video-out requirement.

Resolution and refresh headroom

Supported timings reach 5120x2160 at 60 Hz, 3840x2160 at 60 Hz and 5120x1440 at 120 Hz. Ultrawide 3440x1440 runs at 144 Hz while 2560x1440 and 3840x1080 also hit 144 Hz. The cable pushes 2560x1080 to 180 Hz and 1920x1080 to 240 Hz. HDR, HDCP 2.2 and high bitrate audio pass through, and FreeSync plus G-Sync variable refresh remain active. Beyond the listed modes the link will not negotiate higher rates.
