USB 3.1 Type C to HDMI Cables - Thunderbolt 3

Our high-quality USB Type-C to HDMI cable enables you to connect a Type-C equipped computer (Macbook Pro) or smartphone directly to a HD monitor, TV or projector with HDMI input. USB-C connected devices must support DP Alt Mode or ThunderboltTM 3 connector. Gold-plated connector provides superior transmission, high reliability and durability. USB Type-C features a smaller and reversible connector that makes it easier to plug in. Support HDMI resolution up to 4K x 2K@60HZ. Support USB 3.1 communication and features. Support per lane data rates of 2.7Gbps (HBR) and 1.62Gbps (RBR). Support content protection of HDCP. USB bus power (no external power supply) Thunderbolt is the brand name of a hardware interface developed by Intel (in collaboration with Apple) that allows the connection of external peripherals to a computer. Thunderbolt 1 and 2 use the same connector as Mini DisplayPort (MDP), whereas Thunderbolt 3 re-uses the USB-C connector from USB. There is a great deal of confusion about the difference between Thunderbolt 3 and USB-C. No doubt this at least partially is because the ports look identical apart from the "traditional" three prong USB logo on USB-C cables and the "Lightning Bolt" logo on Thunderbolt 3 cables. The simplest explanation is that USB-C refers to the shape of the port and Thunderbolt 3 refers to the connectivity standard. Thunderbolt 3 combines Thunderbolt, USB, DisplayPort and power via a single USB-C connector. So, a Thunderbolt 3 device is connected to a "Touch Bar" MacBook Pro using the Thunderbolt 3 standard via a USB-C shaped port. Hardware commonly referred to as "USB-C devices" also will work with a Thunderbolt 3 port, but they will not be able to take advantage of the maximum speed provided by Thunderbolt 3 devices.
