USB-C to DVI-D display adapter

This adapter connects a USB-C device to a DVI-D or DVI-I monitor, TV or projector. It supports video output at up to 1080p resolution and 60Hz refresh rate. The silver aluminium housing encloses the active conversion circuitry. It is intended for users who need a single digital video link from a USB-C port.

DisplayPort Alternate Mode required

The adapter functions only when the host USB-C port provides a DisplayPort Alternate Mode signal. Standard USB data ports without video capability will not produce an image. Windows systems may require updated USB-C or Thunderbolt controller drivers from the computer manufacturer. DVI does not carry audio, so sound must be routed separately.

Frees a USB-C port for video while leaving others

No external power supply is needed; the adapter draws operating power from the host port. It works with listed laptops such as MacBook Pro 2016, Dell XPS 13 and 15, Yoga 920, and phones including Samsung Galaxy S8 and S9. Buyers whose devices lack DisplayPort Alternate Mode cannot use this adapter.

Questions about this item

What does 1080p at 60Hz mean when I plug this adapter into my laptop?

The adapter sends a 1920 by 1080 pixel image to the DVI display, refreshed sixty times every second, giving smooth video playback and sharp text for everyday work.

Which USB-C standard does the adapter use and what does it limit?

It requires a USB 3.1 Type-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode 1.2; without that mode the adapter will not output any video signal.

A USB-C socket on the computer, phone or tablet that carries DisplayPort Alternate Mode, plus a DVI-D or DVI-I cable running to the monitor.
