USB-C to DVI adapter for DP Alt Mode devices
This adapter connects a USB-C computer or smartphone to a DVI monitor, TV or projector. It requires the host port to support DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3. A separate DVI cable is needed to complete the link. The unit draws power from the USB bus so no external supply is required.
Practical limits of the DP Alt Mode interface
Video output is capped at 1080p resolution. The adapter handles 225 MHz or 2.25 Gbps per channel for a total of 6.75 Gbps bandwidth. HDCP content protection is supported. Performance will not exceed these specifications regardless of the display connected.
Check your host port before ordering
Verify that your USB-C port explicitly lists DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 support in its documentation. Ports labelled only for data or charging will not transmit video. Buyers who need higher resolutions, multiple displays or a port without DP Alt Mode cannot use this adapter.

Questions about this item
Does this adapter work with my USB-C laptop that only has standard data ports?
No, the host port must support DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 for video output; plain USB data ports will not drive the DVI signal.
What resolution will I actually see on a 1080p monitor connected through this adapter?
The adapter supports DVI up to 1080p at 60 Hz, so a 1080p display will run at its native resolution without scaling.
Is the DVI bandwidth limited by the USB 3.1 Type-C connection?
The link provides 225 MHz per channel (6.75 Gbps total), which matches the adapter's rated DVI bandwidth and does not restrict 1080p output.
