Cable EATON DisplayPort (male) to USB Type-C (male) 1 m 4K

The EATON DisplayPort (male) to USB Type-C (male) 1 m cable enables direct transmission of video and audio from a DisplayPort-equipped source to a USB-C device that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. With a one-metre length and support for up to 4K resolution, the cable is designed for straightforward connections between desktop PCs, laptops, docking stations and modern monitors, reducing the need for adapters while keeping setup tidy.

Advantages

This EATON cable supports high-resolution video up to 4K and carries audio, allowing a single-cable connection for display and sound. The compact, reversible USB-C plug simplifies insertion and reduces connector orientation issues. The 1 m length offers a balance between reach and desk tidiness, suitable for typical workstation layouts. The cable is constructed for reliable signal transmission and compatibility with devices that implement DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C.

Suitable for

• Connecting a desktop PC or laptop with DisplayPort output to a USB-C monitor that accepts DisplayPort Alt Mode
• Linking docking stations or USB-C hubs to DisplayPort video sources
• Setting up single-cable video and audio connections for workstations or meeting rooms

Key specifications

• Connector types: DisplayPort (male) to USB Type-C (male)
• Length: 1 metre
• Maximum supported resolution: up to 4K (compatible with DisplayPort Alt Mode)
• Transmission: digital video and audio over a single cable
• Direction: from DisplayPort source to USB-C display/device supporting DP Alt Mode

How to use

Connect the DisplayPort (male) end to the DisplayPort output on your computer, docking station or graphics card, and insert the USB-C (male) end into the target monitor or device that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. Ensure both devices are powered on and set the monitor input to the appropriate USB-C/DisplayPort source if required. Adjust display settings (resolution, refresh rate) in the operating system to match the monitor capabilities for optimal output.

Usage recommendations

For stable 4K performance, use with devices that explicitly support DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C and configure the output resolution and refresh rate within the limits of the display and graphics adapter. Avoid tight cable bends near the connectors and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources to maintain signal integrity.
