What to know before buying

  • This is not bidirectional. It sends video from a USB-C or Thunderbolt source to a DisplayPort display, not the reverse, and does not support USB-C monitors. The source USB-C port must support DP Alt Mode. Confirm the display has DisplayPort rather than HDMI or Mini DisplayPort.

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent or unconfirmed: the title and primary claim specify 8K@60Hz, while listed resolution combinations vary across sections, including differing 4K and 1440p refresh-rate ceilings. The reminder text also refers to an HDMI monitor despite identifying a DisplayPort cable, while other details specify DisplayPort. Check the exact resolution, refresh rate and connector requirements for both devices before buying.

What’s in the box

Included
  • USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 Cable 8K

Who is it for?

A good fit for

  • People connecting a DP Alt Mode-capable laptop, tablet, phone or handheld to a nearby DisplayPort monitor.
  • Gaming or desktop users who want a short USB-C-to-DisplayPort lead and whose source, display and settings support the intended refresh rate.

Less suited to

  • Anyone needing DisplayPort-to-USB-C video, a USB-C monitor connection, or an HDMI connection.
  • Setups where the source USB-C port lacks DisplayPort Alt Mode or the cable's 1 m length is insufficient.

Frequently asked questions

Can this cable connect in either direction?

No. The listing describes it as one-way, carrying video from a USB-C or Thunderbolt source to a DisplayPort monitor or TV.

Will it work with any USB-C port?

The source USB-C port must support DP Alt Mode. Check the source device specifications before buying.

Does it connect to an HDMI or USB-C monitor?

The listing says it is for DisplayPort displays, not HDMI or USB-C monitors. Its reminder text also mentions HDMI inconsistently, so verify the connector on your display.

What resolutions and refresh rates does it support?

The title claims 8K at 60 Hz, but resolution and refresh-rate details differ across listing sections. Actual support depends on the source and display, so confirm the required mode before buying.
