UGREEN USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 8K Cable, 1m, for Compatible Monitor & Display Connections

UGREEN USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 8K Cable, 1m, for Compatible Monitor & Display Connections

Product Description

This UGREEN CM556 is a 1 m USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 cable. Its short length suits a laptop sitting next to a monitor. It carries 8K at 60Hz, or 4K up to 240Hz, from a USB-C laptop or phone to a DisplayPort screen.

One small screen limits how much you can see, and a mismatched cable gives you a blank display. The UGREEN CM556 USB-C to DisplayPort cable links your computer to a monitor so your desktop appears on the larger screen, with 8K listed. It is made for people who work with an external monitor or a second screen.

Key Features and Benefits

• Display resolution: Listed for 8K. The monitor and the computer port must also support that mode.
• 1m length: 1m between computer and monitor gives you room to position the display where you want it.
• USB-C connection: Connects to a USB-C port that supports video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode) and carries the picture to a DisplayPort monitor.
• Digital video connection: DisplayPort is a digital video connection used on many monitors and graphics cards.
• 8K at 60Hz: a single cable carries an 8K picture at 60Hz to a compatible display.
• Gaming refresh rates: 4K at 144Hz and 240Hz are listed, which suits fast monitors.
• DisplayPort 1.4: 32.4Gbps bandwidth with HDR and DSC.

Made for Life in Nairobi and Across Kenya

Set up a second monitor at your desk in Westlands or Kilimani, extend your laptop display for spreadsheets and design work, or connect a graphics-card PC to a high-refresh monitor.

Buying and Setup Tips

• Check which video ports your monitor and computer have, and whether your USB-C port supports video output.
• If you want a high refresh rate or 4K, make sure the monitor and the graphics output are rated for it.
• Measure the distance first and choose a length with a little slack.
• The cable is one-way, from a USB-C source to a DisplayPort display.
• Your USB-C port must support DisplayPort Alt Mode, and the top resolution depends on both the source and the display.

Who It's Perfect For

• Office and remote workers using a second monitor
• Designers, editors and traders who need screen space
• Gamers with high-refresh monitors
• Anyone linking a laptop to a desktop display

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my laptop support video over USB-C?
Only USB-C ports that support DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt can output video. Check your laptop specifications.

Can I use it with an HDMI monitor?
Only if the cable has an HDMI end. Match the connectors on both devices to the cable.

Does it work with MacBooks and laptops?
Yes, if the USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode). Look for a DP or Thunderbolt symbol beside the port.

Is 1 m long enough?
It is right for a laptop beside a monitor. If the monitor is across a desk or on a stand, a longer length is easier.
