Uni-directional USB 3.0 to HDMI adapter

This compact adapter adds an external HDMI display to a laptop or desktop through a USB 3.0 port. It supports both mirror and extended desktop modes for office work, design tasks or conference presentations. The uni-directional design only transmits from USB to HDMI, so it cannot be used to capture or convert an HDMI source into USB. Driver installation is required on first use.

1080P Full HD over USB 3.0 bandwidth

The adapter delivers up to 1080P resolution by using the available USB 3.0 bandwidth for relatively smooth video playback. It is intended for typical productivity scenarios rather than high-refresh gaming or colour-critical workflows. Buyers who need higher resolutions, HDR or multiple simultaneous external displays should consider a dock or graphics card with native video outputs.

Driver-dependent Windows and Mac OS support

Compatibility covers Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and Mac OS, but the correct display driver must be installed before the adapter functions. No software suite or configuration utility is bundled beyond the essential driver. Users on newer operating systems or Linux distributions cannot rely on out-of-the-box operation without verifying driver availability separately.

Questions about this item

How does the 1080P resolution look when I connect a second monitor to my laptop?

What does the USB 3.0 connection actually limit me to in daily use?

Will the male USB and female HDMI ends fit my ultrabook and a standard monitor cable?

The adapter has a male USB 3.0 plug for the computer side and a female HDMI port for your existing monitor cable, in a compact mini housing.
