Adder VSCD21 – USB-C to DisplayPort Bi-Directional Cable, 2m

Product Overview

The Adder VSCD21 is a 2-meter bi-directional USB-C to DisplayPort cable supporting DisplayPort v1.4 standards at resolutions up to 8K. For AV integrators connecting USB-C laptops and workstations into DisplayPort-based KVM switches and displays, this USB-C to DisplayPort cable carries the video signal in either direction without separate adapters. The male-to-male design makes it a single-part solution for mixed USB-C and DisplayPort installations.

Product Description

Modern source devices increasingly ship with USB-C as their only video output, while professional KVM switches, extenders, and reference monitors remain built around DisplayPort. The VSCD21 bridges that gap with a single two-meter cable: USB-C male on one end, DisplayPort male on the other, with bi-directional operation so the cable works whether the USB-C device is the source or the display side of the link.

That bi-directional capability matters in KVM installations. A typical uni-directional USB-C to DisplayPort cable only works one way, which produces confusing no-signal faults when a cable gets reused in the opposite role. Standardizing on the bi-directional VSCD21 removes that failure mode from the parts bin. DisplayPort v1.4 support means the cable carries resolutions up to 8K, so it does not become the bandwidth bottleneck in high-resolution workstation, edit suite, or control room connections. The two-meter length suits desk-to-switch and desk-to-monitor runs at standard operator positions. As a genuine Adder accessory, it is the natural companion cable for AdderView switches and AdderLink extenders, all available in the Adder Technology collection at Creation Networks.

Key Features

• Bi-Directional Operation — Works with the USB-C device on either end of the link, eliminating direction-dependent no-signal faults common with one-way cables.
• DisplayPort v1.4 Support — Complies with DisplayPort v1.4 standards, providing bandwidth for resolutions up to 8K.
• 2-Meter Male-to-Male Design — Direct USB-C male to DisplayPort male connection covers standard desk-to-switch runs without adapters or couplers.
• Single-Part Simplicity — One cable replaces adapter-plus-cable combinations, reducing connection points and parts-list complexity.
• Genuine Adder Accessory — Factory cable matched to Adder KVM switching and extension hardware for supportable installations.
