Cables & Adapters

USB-C, HDMI, DisplayPort, network and charging cables plus hubs and adapters from Ugreen, Gizzu, WINX, Port and Dell.

• USB-C cables. They are not all the same. Check the charging wattage (60W, 100W or 240W), the data speed, and whether the cable carries video.
• HDMI and DisplayPort. For 4K at high refresh rates, choose a cable rated for HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4 or newer.
• Network cables. Cat6 handles gigabit networking in most homes and offices. Higher categories suit 10GbE and longer runs.
• Adapters. Many video adapters only convert in one direction, so read the product title carefully.
• Hubs. A USB-C hub adds HDMI, USB-A, card readers and Ethernet to a laptop with few ports.
• Length. Buy the length you need. Very long cables can limit charging speed and video quality.
