Anker A87E0 USB-C to HDMI Cable, 6 ft, 4K@60Hz, Nylon-Braided

The 6 ft Anker A87E0 USB-C to HDMI cable gives you room to connect a compatible device to a monitor, projector or TV without having to place them right beside each other.

Its nylon-braided exterior helps resist tangles, making it easier to keep the cable organised between uses.

With 4K@60Hz and HDR support, it’s suited to streaming, presentations and a larger desktop display, with clear detail when the connected devices support the same output.

Quick sizing guide

At 6 ft, this cable offers a practical reach for a laptop or tablet connected to a nearby screen, whether that screen is on a desk, stand or meeting-room table. It can help keep a workspace flexible while your device stays within reach. The round, braided cable is also easy to handle when setting up or packing away a screen connection.

Choose a USB-C to HDMI cable when you want a direct wired link between a compatible USB-C device and an HDMI display. For this connection, the device’s USB-C port needs to support DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3, 4 or 5. That makes it useful for extending a laptop workspace, mirroring a presentation or watching video on a television. Display clarity depends on the devices and display in use.

Why it’s worth it

The cable supports video at up to 4K@60Hz with HDR, bringing detailed picture output to compatible screens. Plug-and-play operation keeps setup straightforward: connect the USB-C end to your device and HDMI to the display, then select the relevant screen mode on your device if needed. On a laptop, mirroring can show the same content on both screens, while an extended desktop gives you more space for working across applications.

Advanced shielding combines a tinned copper conductor with dual-layer aluminium and TPE shielding to support stable screen mirroring. The nylon braid helps protect the cable during everyday handling, while its nickel-plated aluminium exterior is designed to resist corrosion. Anker states that the connector is engineered for 10,000 plug cycles, based on internal lab testing.

Buyers highlight compatibility with devices including Apple laptops and external monitors, as well as the cable’s length and simple plug-and-play use. This makes it a useful choice for regular desk setups or for connecting a laptop to a larger screen for a presentation. Compared with relying on wireless casting, a direct cable connection provides a simple physical link between the device and display.
