Direct 4K 60 Hz USB-C link

The StarTech.com CDP2DPMM6B is a single 1.8 m cable that carries DisplayPort video from a USB-C host straight to a DisplayPort monitor. It suits users who want a tidy desk without separate adapters and who need 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz for office work or media playback. The reversible USB-C plug and male-to-male DisplayPort end keep the connection simple.

Steady 4K output without extra power

The cable delivers its maximum digital resolution of 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz continuously because it draws the required signal directly from a host that supports DP Alt Mode. No external power brick is involved so sustained output stays stable as long as the source maintains the alternate mode. Audio travels alongside video up to 7.1 surround sound without a separate wire.

Plug in and go if the host allows

Installation is a matter of connecting the USB-C end to a compatible port and the DisplayPort end to the screen; the reversible connector removes orientation guesswork. The only common snag is attempting to use the cable with a USB-C port that lacks DisplayPort Alternate Mode, in which case no video appears. Thunderbolt 3 ports that support the mode work without extra setup.

Questions about this item

Does the CDP2DPMM6B draw enough power to heat up or make noise during all-day use?

The cable is a passive USB-C to DisplayPort link with no active electronics, so it produces no heat and no audible noise even after continuous operation.

What must my laptop or tablet already provide for this cable to deliver a 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz signal?

The host needs a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode; without DP Alt Mode the cable cannot transmit video.

Will the 24-pin USB-C plug on this 1.8 m cable work with my 2015 MacBook and 2018 iPad Pro without extra adapters?

Yes, the reversible USB-C connector fits both devices directly and each supports DP Alt Mode, so the cable drives up to 4K 60 Hz on either system.
