Connect Your Laptop’s USB-C Port to a Mini DisplayPort 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 video adapter makes it possible to connect a video source that supports USB DisplayPort 1.2 Alternate Mode (Alt Mode) to a Mini DisplayPort monitor or projector.

Typical Applications

  • Use a second monitor as your primary screen.
  • Extend 4K video to a second monitor.
  • Make a MacBook or Chromebook compatible with a Mini DisplayPort monitor.
  • Share 4K video in a conference room, classroom or auditorium setting.
