USB-C to DisplayPort Cable for Thunderbolt 3/4 Hosts

This 3.3-foot cable connects a USB-C source that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode to a DisplayPort display. It is suited for laptop owners, creative professionals and gamers who need a direct link without separate adapters or driver installation.

Passive Cable With 32.4 Gbps Bandwidth

The link uses DisplayPort 1.4 signalling at HBR3 rates to carry 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 144 Hz or 2K at 240 Hz with DSC 1.2 compression and 32-bit audio. No active electronics means no external power draw and no added heat or fan noise in normal operation.

Replaces Adapter Chains for Single-Display Setups

It removes the need for a USB-C hub plus a separate DisplayPort cable when driving one monitor from a Thunderbolt 3 or 4 port. The jump is worthwhile when you want a shorter, simpler run that supports MST daisy-chaining and HDCP 2.2 without extra boxes.

Questions about this item

How do I install the cable and which step do people miss?

Connect the USB-C end to a port that supports DP Alt Mode and the DisplayPort end to the monitor; the step often missed is confirming the source device actually supports DP Alt Mode.

What maintenance or replacement will this cable need later?

No scheduled maintenance is required; replace the cable only if the connectors become loose or the jacket shows physical damage.

What limit appears first during sustained high-refresh use?

The 32.4 Gbps bandwidth ceiling limits simultaneous resolution, refresh rate and colour depth; pushing 4K at 144 Hz with HDR may hit that ceiling.
