USB 3.1 Type-C hub with VGA, data and charging

This adapter adds a VGA output, a USB 3.0 Type-A port and a USB-C charging port to devices equipped with a USB 3.1 Type-C connector. It supports video resolution up to 1920 x 1200 at 60Hz on the VGA port. The USB 3.0 port delivers data speeds up to 5Gbps for peripherals such as drives, keyboards or mice. The USB-C port supplies power to the host laptop or smartphone while the hub is in use.

For USB-C devices that support DP Alt Mode

Compatible hosts include MacBook models from 2015, MacBook Pro from 2016, iMac from 2017, iPad Pro 2018 and newer Mac Mini units. Supported Windows laptops cover Dell XPS 13 and 15, ASUS ZenBook 3, Lenovo Yoga 900/910/920 and ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5th generation. Supported phones include Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+/S9, Note 8/9, Huawei Mate 10, LG G5/V20/V30 and Microsoft Lumia 950. Devices without DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 cannot use the video output or the hub functions.

Requires host port with DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3

The single specification that determines compatibility is whether the USB-C port on the computer or smartphone implements DisplayPort Alternate Mode or Thunderbolt 3. Without that capability the VGA video output will not function and the hub will not operate. Check the device specifications for DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 support before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a USB-C port with DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 for the 30UC-CVGAU3C to output video?

Yes, the host USB-C port must support DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3; a plain USB-C data port will not drive the VGA output.

Can I still use a USB 2.0 flash drive in the Type-A port on this adapter?

The USB 3.0 Type-A port is backward compatible with USB 2.0, so older peripherals will work at their native speed.

How can I verify the VGA link is running at 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz after I connect a monitor?

Open the display settings on your computer and confirm the external monitor shows 1920 x 1200 resolution at 60 Hz refresh rate.
