Consider that not all USB-C ports carry a video signal, so check device specifications if unsure.

Limitations and Compatibility Notes

This adapter is not compatible with devices that lack video-capable USB-C ports. According to the manufacturer, it does not support some consoles such as the Switch. Also, cable quality and length can affect the ability to reach maximum resolution and refresh rate, so shorter, well-shielded HDMI cables are preferable for the highest performance.
