FAQs
Does this adapter support audio?
No, this Connekt Gear USB 3 to HDMI adapter is designed for video transmission only and does not support audio.
What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate?
The adapter supports a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 pixels (Full HD) at a refresh rate of 60Hz.
Do I need to install any drivers for this adapter?
No, this adapter features Plug and Play functionality, meaning it should work automatically on most compatible systems without requiring driver installation.
Can I use this adapter with a USB 2.0 port?
While it may connect to a USB 2.0 port, it is not recommended. USB 2.0 ports lack the necessary bandwidth to reliably support the 1920x1080 resolution at 60Hz. For optimal performance, use a USB 3.0 port.
Does this adapter work in reverse (HDMI to USB)?
No, this adapter is designed exclusively for connecting a USB source device to an HDMI display. It does not function in reverse.
What is the length of the cable?
The cable length is 240mm, which is approximately 0.24 meters.
What material are the connectors plated with?
The connector contacts are plated with gold for enhanced conductivity and durability.
Troubleshooting
No video output detected on the HDMI display.
Ensure the adapter is securely plugged into both the USB 3.0 port on your source device and the HDMI cable connected to your display. Verify that your display is set to the correct HDMI input. Check your operating system's display settings to ensure the external display is enabled and configured. For optimal results, use a USB 3.0 port.
Display resolution is lower than 1920x1080 or refresh rate is not 60Hz.
Confirm that the USB port on your source device is USB 3.0. USB 2.0 ports may not support the required bandwidth for higher resolutions and refresh rates. Also, check the display settings in your operating system to manually set the resolution and refresh rate to 1920x1080 at 60Hz.
No audio is transmitted to the HDMI display.
This adapter is designed for video only and does not transmit audio. You will need to use a separate audio connection (e.g., from your device's headphone jack or built-in speakers) for sound.
Adapter is not recognized by the computer (no Plug and Play).
Try connecting the adapter to a different USB 3.0 port on your computer. If using a USB hub, connect it directly to the computer's USB port. Ensure your operating system is up to date, as older versions might have limited support for USB display adapters.
