Tripp Lite USB C to DisplayPort Cable Adapter
Laptops, tablets, and phones often drop standard video ports to stay thin. We built this adapter cable to bridge modern USB-C and Thunderbolt jacks directly to DisplayPort displays. It routes high-definition audio and video straight from your desk machine to a screen without extra power bricks.

How this one is built
Reversible source plug
The male USB-C connector seats firmly into your source jack either side up. It mates cleanly with USB-C and Thunderbolt ports on laptops, tablets, or phones without requiring you to check the orientation before plugging in.
DisplayPort alternate mode
Video and digital audio pass straight through the USB-C connection using native DisplayPort alternate mode. It needs no special drivers or external power blocks to display clear picture and sound on your external monitor or projector.
High dynamic range
The cable preserves crisp video and rich color depth for gaming setups and work monitors. It supports high-definition resolutions, high dynamic range signals, and full chroma subsampling for accurate color reproduction across your extended desktop.
Clean direct run
One end plugs into the computer while the other locks into your display. Replacing a chain of dongles with a single dedicated cable cuts down clutter behind the desk and keeps connection points to a minimum.
