Video cable adapter S/CONN 10-59045 3 m USB Type-C VGA (D-Sub) Black

The S/CONN 10-59045 3 m USB Type-C to VGA (D-Sub) video cable adapter by ShiverPeaks provides a direct wired connection between USB-C equipped source devices and VGA displays. Designed in black and measuring three metres in length, this adapter enables output from laptops, tablets or smartphones with a USB Type-C video-capable port to legacy projectors, monitors and other displays that accept a VGA input. The cable combines a compact USB-C plug with a standard VGA connector to bridge modern devices and older display hardware without requiring separate power.

Advantages

The adapter supports simple plug-and-play operation when used with devices that provide analog video output over USB-C, reducing the need for additional converters or docking stations. Its 3 m length offers installation flexibility for meeting rooms, classrooms and workspaces, while the robust construction and standard VGA interface ensure compatibility with a wide range of displays. The black finish provides a discreet appearance suitable for professional environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-C laptops or tablets to VGA projectors for presentations
• Linking modern notebooks to older external monitors in office setups
• Using at home to connect streaming devices or compact PCs to legacy displays
• Temporary or permanent AV installations where VGA input is required

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB Type-C (video-capable)
• Connector 2: VGA (D-Sub) 15-pin analogue
• Cable length: 3 m
• Colour: Black
• Signal type: Analog VGA output from compatible USB-C sources

How to use

Connect the USB Type-C plug to a device that supports video output over USB-C. Attach the VGA (D-Sub) connector to the display or projector’s VGA input and secure the connector if the display uses thumbscrews. Select the appropriate input source on the display and configure the output resolution and display mode on the source device as needed. No external power is normally required; if the source device does not supply video over USB-C, an alternate adapter or active converter may be necessary.

Recommendations

For best results, use with devices that explicitly support DisplayPort Alternate Mode or USB-C video output. When operating at higher resolutions, verify that the connected display and source device settings match to avoid scaling or signal loss. Route the 3 m cable to avoid sharp bends and protect connectors from excessive strain to maintain reliable performance.
