USB-C to VGA adapter for 1080p 60 Hz

This USB-C to VGA cable connects a host with a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode or Thunderbolt to a VGA display. It delivers up to 1920 by 1080 resolution at 60 Hz and extends the desktop on laptops, desktops, MacBooks, iPads and Samsung DEX devices. The cable length is 2 metres (6.6 feet). It is a straightforward solution for legacy projectors or monitors.

Check your USB-C port for video output support

Before ordering, verify that your device's USB-C port implements DisplayPort Alternate Mode or Thunderbolt video output. A standard USB-C port used only for charging or data will not drive the adapter. The cable does not support 2560 by 1440, 3440 by 1440, 3840 by 1080, 3840 by 2160 or 5120 by 1440 resolutions.

Passive cable with no external power required

The adapter draws power from the host USB-C port and needs no separate supply. It runs silently with no fan or moving parts. Normal use adds minimal load to the host system. The 2 metre length keeps the signal within standard VGA limits at 1080p 60 Hz.

Questions about this item

Does the 2 m cable include everything needed to connect a USB-C laptop to a VGA monitor, or is a separate adapter required?

The 2 m cable is a single USB-C to VGA adapter; no extra dongle is needed, but the host port must support DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt for video output.

The specs list several unsupported resolutions above 1080p — which of the listed modes should I select for a 1080p 60 Hz display?

Choose 1920x1080 at 60 Hz; all higher resolutions such as 2560x1440, 3440x1440, 3840x2160 and 5120x1440 are explicitly not supported.

When the cable is plugged into a real machine, what does the 1080p 60 Hz headline figure actually deliver?

It delivers a 1920x1080 image at 60 frames per second, provided the USB-C port supplies DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt video signalling.
