About This Item
Plugable USB-C to DisplayPort Bi Directional Adapter Cable The Plugable USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter Bi Directional Cable enables you to connect USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 / 4 enabled devices that support “VESA DisplayPort Alternate Mode over USB-C" ("Alt Mode") to external displays with DisplayPort (DP). 6 foot display cable supports resolutions up to 3840x2160@60Hz (4K) on DisplayPort displays. Alt Mode adapters like this USB-C to DisplayPort cable are a convenient option for adding an additional display output on supported systems. Since DisplayPort Alternate Mode is a direct pipeline to the host graphics processor (GPU) in your system, the connected display will function with the same performance of a native display. Video and photo editing, gaming, and other resource-intensive tasks are possible assuming that the system's GPU capabilities are sufficient. Compatible Systems Works with Windows 10/11, macOS 11+, ChromeOS 100+, and Linux. Requires a system with DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C, USB4, or Thunderbolt 3/4. Fully compatible with DisplayPort source devices and full-featured USB-C displays.M1–M4 MacBooks (base and Pro/Max), Intel Thunderbolt Macs (late 2016+), iPhone 15/16 and Pro models, iPad Pro/Air/mini, HP ProBook/EliteBook/Spectre x360, Dell XPS/Latitude/Inspiron, Lenovo ThinkPad/IdeaPad/Yoga, Microsoft Surface Pro/Go/Book/Laptop, LG Gram, and thousands of standards-compliant USB-C laptops.
