USB Type C to DisplayPort Converter Lindy 43337

The Lindy USB Type C to DP 1.4 Converter provides a high-performance way to add external DisplayPort video output to computers with a USB Type-C port that supports DisplayPort 1.4 Alternate Mode. It supports resolutions up to 8K (7680x4320@60Hz) and 4K at 120Hz, includes HDR support for improved brightness, contrast and wider colour gamut, and supports HDCP 2.2 for protected 8K Ultra HD content. The converter is bus-powered and does not require an external power supply, and the reversible USB Type-C connector simplifies connection to laptops and MacBooks.

Advantages

The adapter delivers 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz video output where the host device supports DisplayPort 1.4 Alternate Mode and optionally DSC v1.2a. HDR compatibility enhances picture quality for compatible displays, while HDCP 2.2 ensures playback of protected content. Bus-powered operation removes the need for external power, and the reversible Type-C connector and Plug and Play installation make set-up quick and straightforward.
