USB 3.1 Type C to VGA Adapter

The Cables To Go 29471 connects a USB 3.1 Type C port to a VGA display. It functions as an external video adapter for PCs. The unit weighs approximately 1.17 oz and comes in black. A three-year limited warranty is included by the manufacturer.

Suits Type C ports needing legacy video

This adapter suits users with a USB 3.1 Type C host who need to connect a VGA monitor or projector. It is not for hosts lacking a Type C port. It does not serve buyers who require HDMI, DisplayPort or DVI outputs. It is also not for setups needing multiple independent displays from a single adapter.

Host interface is USB 3.1 Type C

The decisive specification is the USB 3.1 Type C host interface. The adapter only works when the source device provides a compatible Type C connection. Verify the host port matches this exact interface before purchase. The VGA connector on the display side is fixed and cannot be changed.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a USB 3.1 Type-C port for the 29471 adapter to work?

Yes, the adapter requires a USB 3.1 Type-C host port to provide both the video signal and power for the VGA output.

Can I still use a legacy VGA monitor with this USB 3.1 Type-C adapter?

The 29471 is designed specifically to connect a VGA display to a modern USB 3.1 Type-C port, so older VGA monitors work directly.

How can I verify the 29471 adapter is functioning after I plug it in?

Your operating system should detect the external display immediately and the VGA monitor will show an image without extra drivers.
