UGREEN USB-C to DisplayPort 8K Cable 1m, For Compatible Monitor & Display Connections
Product Description
The UGREEN CM556 8K cable at 1 m connects the USB-C port of a laptop, tablet or phone to a monitor or TV with a DisplayPort input. At 1 m it keeps a docked-desk setup tidy.
One small screen limits how much you can see, and a mismatched cable gives you a blank display. The UGREEN CM556 USB-C to DisplayPort cable links your computer to a monitor so your desktop appears on the larger screen, with 8K listed. It is made for people who work with an external monitor or a second screen.
Key Features and Benefits
- Display resolution: Listed for 8K. The monitor and the computer port must also support that mode.
- 1m length: 1m between computer and monitor gives you room to position the display where you want it.
- USB-C connection: Connects to a USB-C port that supports video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode) and carries the picture to a DisplayPort monitor.
- Digital video connection: DisplayPort is a digital video connection used on many monitors and graphics cards.
- Docked-desk tidy: at 1 m it keeps the run between a laptop and monitor short, leaving little cable to coil.
- Metal and nylon build: aluminium alloy connectors with a braided nylon jacket.
- Shielded inside: a ChargerLab teardown found a VIA Labs chip and several layers of shielding.
Made for Life in Nairobi and Across Kenya
Set up a second monitor at your desk in Westlands or Kilimani, extend your laptop display for spreadsheets and design work, or connect a graphics-card PC to a high-refresh monitor.
Buying and Setup Tips
- Check which video ports your monitor and computer have, and whether your USB-C port supports video output.
- If you want a high refresh rate or 4K, make sure the monitor and the graphics output are rated for it.
- Measure the distance first and choose a length with a little slack.
- Resolution and refresh rate are limited by whichever is lower, the USB-C port or the monitor.
- The cable only sends video one way, from USB-C to DisplayPort.
Who It's Perfect For
- Office and remote workers using a second monitor
- Designers, editors and traders who need screen space
- Gamers with high-refresh monitors
- Anyone linking a laptop to a desktop display
