The Plugable USB-C to DisplayPort Bi-Directional Adapter Cable is a versatile solution for connecting USB-C and Thunderbolt 3/4 devices that support VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode to external displays with DisplayPort input. Unlike one-way adapters, this cable works in both directions: it can connect a USB-C laptop to a DisplayPort monitor, or a DisplayPort output to a USB-C monitor. Supporting resolutions up to 3840x2160@60Hz (4K60), it's perfect for adding an additional display to your workspace or connecting your laptop to a high-res monitor in a conference room.
This cable eliminates the need for multiple adapters. Use it to extend your laptop's screen to a DisplayPort monitor, or reverse the connection to use a DisplayPort source with a USB-C monitor. It's an essential tool for professionals who frequently switch between devices.
Enjoy crisp, clear 4K UHD video at 60Hz, as well as lower resolutions like 1080p and 1440p. The 6-foot (1.8 m) length provides flexibility in setting up your display arrangement.
Works with MacBook, iPad Pro, Windows laptops, Chromebooks, and Android devices that support DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C. Also compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports. For iPhones that support DisplayPort, you may need an additional adapter.
To use USB-C to DisplayPort: plug the USB-C end into your device and the DisplayPort end into your monitor. The signal is converted automatically. For DisplayPort to USB-C: connect the DisplayPort end to your graphics card or device, and the USB-C end to a USB-C monitor. This bidirectional capability makes it a flexible tool for any setup.

MPN: USB-C to DisplayPort Bidirectional Adapter Cable
This adapter cable is a space-saver for your tech kit, replacing two separate one-way cables. It's ideal for IT professionals who need to connect a variety of devices, from connecting a Surface to a conference room DisplayPort monitor to using a desktop GPU with a USB-C monitor. The durable braided nylon exterior resists tangles and wear, ensuring a long service life. And because it's passive, you get a reliable, driver-free connection every time.
Yes, it is designed to work bidirectionally. You can use it to connect a USB-C source to a DisplayPort monitor, or a DisplayPort source to a USB-C monitor.
Yes, iPad Pro models with USB-C support DisplayPort Alt Mode, so you can connect to an external DisplayPort monitor at up to 4K60.
Exactly, it is designed for both directions, so you don't need to buy separate cables. Just flip the cable accordingly.
I've been using this cable to connect my MacBook Pro to a 4K Dell monitor, and it just works. No drivers, no hassle, just plug and play. The 4K60 output is crisp and smooth. Highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable USB-C to DisplayPort connection.
This cable works as advertised, but I wish it were a bit longer for my setup. I have to route it carefully. Picture quality is great, and it's sturdy. Overall, satisfied.
I love that this cable is bidirectional. I use it both ways depending on which device I'm connecting. It's rare to find such a versatile cable. Quality feels premium, and the 6 ft length is perfect for my desk. Definitely worth the price.
It worked fine with my tablet to a monitor, but it didn't work with my older laptop that doesn't support Alt Mode. I should have checked compatibility. If your device supports USB-C DP Alt Mode, this is fine. Otherwise, don't expect it to work.
I've gone through several USB-C to DisplayPort cables that randomly stopped working. This one has been reliable for months. The 4K60 output is flawless, and the connector is snug. I'm buying another for my office.
This cable is a good value for the price. It does exactly what I need. The only minor complaint is that it's a bit stiff, but that's expected for a braided cable. Great for connecting my laptop to a monitor for work.
I thought this could connect my phone to a monitor, but it didn't work because my phone doesn't support DP Alt Mode. The cable itself is fine, but I can't use it for what I intended. Check your device compatibility first.
I needed a reliable cable to connect my work laptop to a 4K monitor. This one works flawlessly. No flickering, no dropouts, just a stable connection at 60Hz. The bidirectional feature is a bonus. I'm very happy with this purchase.
