UGREEN USB C to DisplayPort 2.1 2m

UGREEN’s USB C to DisplayPort 2.1 cable connects laptops, tablets and compatible mobiles to a DisplayPort monitor for high resolution and low latency video and audio. It targets users who need a stable wired link for productivity, creative work or gaming, and it supports high refresh modes when the host and display allow it.

Highlights

This cable supports up to 16K@30Hz and carries multiple high refresh and resolution profiles including 8K@120Hz, 8K@60Hz, 4K@240Hz and 2K at very high refresh rates, according to the manufacturer. It uses Display Stream Compression (DSC) and HDR10 where supported, and it also handles HDCP 2.2 and Dolby Atmos passthrough. The transfer is unidirectional from host USB‑C to DisplayPort, and it is plug and play with no drivers required.

Tech specs

• Name: UGREEN USB C to DisplayPort 2.1 Cable
• Type: USB C to DisplayPort 2.1
• Length: 2M
• Capacity: 32.4 Gbps bandwidth (HBR3)
• Compatibility: Thunderbolt 3/4 or USB C with video support required

Why it makes sense

The cable is built for reliability, with a braided nylon sheath and aluminium connectors that resist corrosion. Manufacturer claims note more than 10,000 insertions and 20,000 bends, which matters if you frequently plug and unplug or route the cable around a desk. It supports G‑SYNC and VRR to reduce tearing when the source and display negotiate variable refresh rates.

Who it’s for

It suits users who need a single cable to drive high resolution displays from modern Macs, Windows laptops and some tablets. It’s a good fit if you require high frame rates for gaming or smooth motion for video editing, provided your device’s USB‑C port supports video output. Note that it will not work from a USB‑C port without DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt support.
