Mirror or extend a 4K monitor, projector, or TV to your computer
The Plugable USB-C to HDMI Adapter (USBC-THDMI) is for users who want to add a HDMI monitor, projector or television to their USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 compatible computer.
This compact adapter is under 2 inches in size, making it perfect for travel and taking on the go. Featuring a unique flat cable design, you can forget about messy cables and take advantage of the tight bend radius, which allows the adapter to fit in confined and compact spaces. The adapter enables an HDMI 1.4 output at resolutions up to 3840x2160 @ 30Hz (4K 30Hz) from systems which support "DisplayPort Alternate Mode" (Alt Mode) via USB-C.
Plug and Play
Alt Mode adapters allow you to add an additional display output easily and inexpensively on supported systems without needing to install additional software.
DisplayPort Alternate Mode provides a direct pipeline to the host graphics processor (GPU) in your system, the connected display will function with the same uncompromising performance of a natively attached display.
Video and photo editing, gaming, and other resource-intensive tasks are possible assuming that the system's GPU capabilities are sufficient for the application being used.
4K Performance
Connect your HDMI equipped monitor, television or projector to your laptop and achieve resolutions up to 3840x2160 @ 30Hz (4K 30Hz).
Other popular supported resolutions include 3440x1440, 2560x1440, 1920x1200, 1920x1080 and lower.
Note: This adapter will not work with DisplayPort monitors.
Flexible Flat Cable
The adapter is equipped with a flat, printed circuit cable that allows for a small footprint and flexibility. This means the cable itself is more sturdy and less prone to breakage from everyday use like traditional, round, copper cables.
The compact and easy to use flat profile enables the adapter to hug surfaces and take advantage of tight spaces. This flexibility saves space and eliminates clutter so that you don't have to deal with the cable mess.
Compact and Portable
Measuring in at 1.7in x 1in x .4in (4.3cm x 2.3cm x 1.1cm), the small, compact size is great for travel and small desk spaces.

Here's how a USB charge only adapter works. Devices like smartphones often refuse to charge from switched-off computers or disconnected hubs, as they must agree on the power they'll draw-initially just 100mA, bumping up to 500mA as needed.
The Plugable USB data blocker adapter uses a safe, IC-free design by adding a series of resistors in between the data lines to allow for up to 1A charging. So whether it's to fend off juice jacking or to simply boost your battery, the USB-MC1-5X has your back. Peace of mind and faster charging in one little adapter. -

Plugable USB Data Blocker, Protect Against Juice Jacking - Universal Fast 1A Charge-Only Adapter for Android, Apple iOS, and Windows Mobile Devices
Plugable USB-MC1
The Plugable USB-MC1 adapter enables you to turn any USB data port in to a charge-only port. This can be advantageous as some devices charge too slowly or do not charge when connected to a USB data port. It also serves to protect your device and its data from hackers and viruses. The MC1 is smaller than a pack of chewing gum and will easily fit in your pocket. Perfect for on the go charging at airports, coffee shops, libraries, and more.
Battery charging over USB has become a standard practice but the actual charging behavior of different devices is often unpredictable and sometimes disappointing. Read below for more background information and if this is the right adapter for you.USB Charging Information - How it Works
Most devices can't or won't charge from normal USB ports and powered hubs if the computer is turned off or not connected. That includes most Android, iOS, and Windows Mobile devices. The phone or tablet must negotiate how much power to pull, to do so by the original USB specification, devices are supposed to only draw 100mA at first and then they can then negotiate up to 500mA. This negotiation requires a PC that's attached and on. Unfortunately even at 500mA, charging most devices will take a very long time to charge.
The AC adapter of your powered hub needs to be rated for at least 1A per USB charging adapter connected. If it is not, USB over-current protection may be triggered (causing all power to the hub to shut off), or the hub circuit or power supply may heat up from too much current being pulled through by the device. If this happens, remove devices until you're back within the rated amperage. Charging rates will be determined by the maximum charging speed your device supports, the quality of the USB cable you use, and if the USB port has enough power available. Learn More
For example, the iPhone and most other phones will charge on a standard port this way, but they can also charge faster (up to 1A) if the USB port sends a special, non-standard signal to say "I'm an Apple 1A charger". The Plugable MC1 adapter simulates that Apple 1A signal, turning any powered USB port with at least 1A power available into a charging port. Even though it's not standard, it's how Apple pioneered faster charging, and fortunately, nearly all phones and tablets on the market today recognize this signal as it has become the unofficial standard for USB charging.
For larger devices such as tablets like the iPad, this adapter is even more important because their batteries are larger and charging at 500mA would be too slow.
