Purpose and Audience

The Corn Electronics adapter connects a USB-C source to a Mini DisplayPort 1.4 display. It supports up to 8K resolution at 60Hz for mirroring or extending a desktop. The compact blade shape fits tightly spaced ports without blocking neighbours. No driver installation is required.

Suitability

This suits users whose host device provides Thunderbolt 3 or 4 or DP Alt Mode and who need a Mini DisplayPort input on the monitor. Buyers whose laptop only offers plain USB data or charging over USB-C will find the adapter does not work. It is also unsuitable for anyone needing to drive a USB-C display from a Mini DisplayPort source.

Deciding Specification

The host must implement Thunderbolt 3 or 4 or DP Alt Mode over its USB-C port. Without that capability the adapter cannot transmit a video signal. Confirm the host specification before purchase.

Questions about this item

Which devices will this adapter work with?

It requires a USB-C port that supports Thunderbolt 3 or 4 or DisplayPort Alt Mode; otherwise it will not function. Compatible devices include MacBook Air, Pro, iMac, Mac Mini, Mac Studio, iPad Pro and other USB-C devices with the required video output.

What does the 8K 60Hz rating mean for my monitor?

The adapter can pass an 8K signal at 60 Hz from the source to a Mini DisplayPort 1.4 display, provided the host device and cable also support that bandwidth.

What version of DisplayPort does the Mini DisplayPort connector use?

The output follows the Mini DisplayPort 1.4 standard, which caps the maximum resolution and refresh rate the adapter can deliver.
