StarTech.com 6.6 ft. (2m) USB-C to DVI Cable - 1920 x 1200 - Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’ve got a device with USB‑C that supports video output and you just need a simple “plug it in and work” link to a DVI monitor, this StarTech cable is exactly the kind of no-fuss thing that makes IT lives easier. At ~£24 ex‑VAT for a 2m run, it’s priced like a proper business cable (rather than the £5–£10 wobble-prone stuff). The 2m length is also the sweet spot for desks and small meeting rooms where you don’t want the monitor right next to your laptop.

That said, don’t buy it on assumption alone: some USB‑C ports are charging/data-only, not video. If the USB‑C host isn’t actually DisplayPort Alt Mode–capable, this won’t magically convert anything. Also, DVI is fairly old—great for legacy screens and where you need consistency, but if you’re buying for a modern fleet, you’ll usually get better long-term flexibility using HDMI/DP. Bottom line: buy it for legacy DVI users who already have USB‑C video working (or you’ve tested it), and avoid it if you’re standardising on modern display connections or you’re unsure about Alt Mode support.
