Pros

This is the only working solution with catalina that i'm aware of. This is exactly what i needed to hook my oculus rift s to my laptop. It's small, reasonably priced, and most importantly, it works great with the rift.

The usb-c end of this adaptor uses the better seamless construction design, so that should be more durable than a cheaper crimped design. It is very small and compact. For those with a healthy passion for clunky plastic dongles, this one checks all th...  Read More

    Needed the power port of this adapter to also send power to headset

    I bought this to convert usbc displayport from a macbook pro running catalina to a displayport display


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The trouble with mac is it doesnt work efficiently with a displays hdmi input port so you get increased cpu and power usage to refresh the display buffer with the corresponding increase in loud fan noise which is just annoying


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I needed to plug my mac into the displayport input of my display so i needed a usbc displayport to a regular displayport adapter which is what this is

    No more fan noisy after i made this hdmi to displayport change
