Connect Your Laptop’s USB-C Port to a VGA Monitor Wherever You Go
Newer tablets, laptops, Chromebook and MacBook notebooks, desktop computers and even smartphones often have only USB Type-C ports for connection to peripherals. Using a single USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port, this Tripp Lite adapter connects a video source that supports USB DisplayPort Alternate Mode (Alt Mode) to a VGA monitor or projector.

Take Advantage of Easy USB-C Connection
Unlike traditional USB connectors that can be attached only one way, USB-C connectors are reversible by design. The adapter’s built-in USB-C cable provides a fast connection to a USB-C port the first time, every time. The right-angle design relieves strain on the cable and allows easier connection in areas with limited clearance.
