Tripp Lite USB C to HDMI Cable Adapter
Laptops and tablets often ship with nothing but compact ports along the edge. We built this direct adapter cable to bridge that small jack to a full-sized HDMI television, projector, or desk monitor without extra boxes in between. It takes the video feed right off the alternate mode output and carries it clean to the glass.
Price as our retail partner last listed it. They set it and they can change it, so the figure on their page is the one that counts at checkout.
- Usb C to HDMI Adapter: USB C to HDMI Adapter connects a HDMI monitor, projector or television to the USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port on your desktop computer, tablet, laptop, notebook, MacBook, Chromebook or smartphone.
- Usb C HDMI Alternate Mode: connecting the HDMI to USB C cable to a source device that supports USB HDMI Alt Mode, you can output 4K video and digital audio to a HDMI monitor, television or projector without installing special software drivers.
- 4K video with audio: This 4K HDMI cable supports Ultra HD resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 (4K x 2K) at 60 Hz for crystal-clear picture and sound. It's compatible with HDCP 2. 2 and HDMI 2. 0 standards for carrying HDR (high Dynamic Range) signals. It also supports 4: 4: 4 Chroma subsampling for top-level PC gaming.
- Reversible USB-C connector: USB-C male connector plugs into a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port in either direction for a fumble-free connection every time. This cable can be used as both a USB Type C and Thunderbolt 3 to HDMI Adapter.
- Common applications: an ideal connector for presenting video at trade shows and conferences, editing documents, gaming, and watching 4K movies on a larger screen. No other adapter or cable is needed to complete your 4K connection.
How this one is built
Source connection
The compact plug fits into standard USB-C or Thunderbolt ports on modern laptops, tablets, and phones. Because the connector is reversible, it mates either way up without scratching the chassis around the port.
Display output
At the far end, a standard HDMI connector feeds your monitor, conference room projector, or workbench television. It delivers high-resolution video and digital sound through one continuous line, skipping external converter dongles entirely.
Color and clarity
Built to handle high dynamic range content, the internal wiring preserves deep contrast and rich color across the span. It supports full chroma sampling, which keeps fine text legible during workstation work and PC gaming sessions.
Hardware setup
No extra drivers, secondary adapters, or external power bricks clutter your desk setup. If your host device supports alternate video mode through its port, you plug the cable in and the external screen lights right up.
