Stable 4K signal handling for modern laptops

The adapter is active, which helps convert digital signals reliably. This supports connection from USB-C or Thunderbolt laptops to DisplayPort displays. Because it is active, it can handle different signal protocols smoothly. However, the maximum resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels at 60 Hz. So, confirm your monitor supports this resolution before purchase.

Compact form factor for tidy desks

The 0.22 m cable length keeps your setup neat. It minimises excess cable bulk around the workstation. Also, the 50 g weight makes it easy to carry in a bag. The black PVC jacket provides durable daily use. In practice, this suits hybrid workers moving between home and office.

Gold-plated contacts for reliable connectivity

The connector contacts are plated with gold. This helps maintain a stable electrical connection over time. Because the connector 1 is USB Type-C male and connector 2 is DisplayPort female, fit depends on your ports. So, verify your laptop has USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt. This adapter does not specify power delivery capabilities.

Plug and play with environmental consideration

The adapter supports plug and play for quick installation. No drivers are mentioned, so confirm OS compatibility with your IT policy. Also, the biodegradable package helps reduce packaging waste. Compliance certificates include RoHS, and REACH certification is stated. However, UKCA or CE marking is not specified; confirm local compliance if needed.
