Ugreen USB-C to HDMI 8K Video Cable

USB-C to HDMI 8K Cable

The Ugreen USB-C HDMI video cable converts DisplayPort Alt Mode output from a USB-C host into a native HDMI 2.1 signal for monitors, TVs, and projectors. It carries up to 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz when the source port and display both support those modes. Procurement teams specify it for conference rooms, hot desks, and field kits where a single cable must bridge USB-C laptops to HDMI infrastructure.

Host compatibility depends on DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C. The cable works with many Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and USB4 laptops that expose DP Alt Mode on the Type-C port. It does not add video from USB-C ports that only supply data and power. Verify the manufacturer spec sheet for your notebook or mini PC before rollout.

The converter chip inside the HDMI end negotiates link timing with the display EDID while the USB-C end presents a DP Alt Mode source to the host GPU. Audio channels travel over the same link when the operating system routes HDMI audio to the external sink. IT administrators can deploy the cable alongside existing HDMI switch matrices without reterminating wall plates or buying new AV receivers.

Install teams should confirm cable direction during staging because the USB-C end must connect to the video-capable host port. Label both ends in loaner kits to reduce swap errors during executive briefings. Store spare units in AV drawers next to standard HDMI patch cords so technicians replace failed links during live events without delay.

Key Features

• HDMI 2.1 Video Output
  The integrated converter outputs HDMI 2.1 timing up to 7680 x 4320 at 60 Hz and 3840 x 2160 at 120 Hz when bandwidth allows.

• HDR and HDCP Support
  HDR10 metadata passes through for compatible displays, and HDCP 2.2/2.3 content protection supports streaming and protected playback.

• DisplayPort Alt Mode Requirement

  • Requires a USB-C port with DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt video output
  • Does not function on USB-C data-only ports without video lanes

• Plug-and-Play Operation
  No driver install is required on Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, or Linux hosts that already expose DP Alt Mode.

• Durable Cable Assembly
  Molded strain relief at both connectors reduces flex fatigue during repeated connect cycles in shared workspaces.

Why Choose This Cable

• One cable replaces separate USB-C to DisplayPort adapters plus HDMI patch leads in many desk setups.

• 8K and high-refresh 4K modes future-proof AV links for next-generation panels without rewiring.

• Native HDMI output suits existing HDMI switchers, extenders, and wall plates in corporate AV racks.

• Passive host-side operation keeps IT support load low compared with driver-heavy USB graphics adapters.
