USB-C to HDMI 2.1 adapter cable for 8K displays

This 10ft cable converts a USB-C video signal to HDMI 2.1 for monitors and TVs. It supports 8K resolution at 60Hz and 4K at 144Hz with HDR10. The adapter works with laptops and devices that provide video output through USB-C DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt ports.

Sustained 8K 60Hz and 4K 144Hz video output

The active converter maintains the stated resolutions and refresh rates during extended sessions without signal degradation. HDR10 metadata passes through continuously for compatible content. Performance remains stable because the cable draws power directly from the host USB-C port, avoiding the dropouts common with passive adapters under high bandwidth load.

Simple plug-and-play connection with no drivers

Installation requires connecting the USB-C end to the host and the HDMI end to the display; the adapter is recognised automatically by modern operating systems. The 10ft length suits typical desk-to-monitor runs but may not reach ceiling-mounted projectors or distant screens. The fixed cable design means a damaged connector requires replacing the entire unit rather than swapping a detachable lead.

Questions about this item

Does the 10ft cable get warm or draw extra power during all-day 8K 60Hz use?

The adapter cable is passive and bus-powered, so it adds negligible heat and draws only the small amount of current the host port supplies for DP Alt Mode signalling.

My laptop only has a basic USB-C port — will the 136BUSBCHDMI213M still drive 4K 144Hz HDR10?

The host must support DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C or Thunderbolt 3/4; a data-only USB-C port cannot carry the video signal required for those resolutions.

Can I keep my older HDMI 2.0 monitor and still use this cable with a new USB-C laptop?

Yes, the HDMI 2.1 connector is backward compatible, so the cable will negotiate the highest common rate — up to 4K 60Hz on an HDMI 2.0 display.
