Recommendations

For best performance, use systems that support DisplayPort over USB-C and the stated power delivery levels; when connecting a single 4K display, ensure the host device’s USB-C port supports 4K output and expect up to 30Hz refresh rate. Verify cable orientation and secure the power adapter connection for stable charging and video output.
