J5CREATE JCC157 USB-C to HDMI 2.1 8K Cable (1.8 m)

Description

Overview

The J5CREATE JCC157 is a USB‑C to HDMI 2.1 cable designed to deliver high‑resolution video from USB‑C hosts that support DisplayPort Alternate Mode. It targets gamers, content creators and professionals who need single‑cable connectivity to HDMI 2.1 displays and TVs. The cable is supplied in a 1.8 m length and is ready to use without drivers.

Key features

• Supports up to 8K (7680 × 4320) at 60 Hz with Display Stream Compression (DSC) and up to 4K at 144 Hz when the host and display support the required standards.
• Uses USB‑C (DP Alt Mode) on the host side for video output — the host must support DP 1.4 with DSC to reach the highest modes.
• 1.8 m cable length (approximately 6 ft), braided jacket and RGB indicator LED to help locate the cable behind equipment.
• Plug‑and‑play operation: no drivers required for basic video passthrough.

Compatibility & notes

The cable works with Windows, Chrome OS and many macOS devices that provide a USB‑C port with DisplayPort Alt Mode. Note that some Apple devices are limited by their system firmware: j5create states macOS and iPadOS devices may be limited to 4K@60Hz. Always check your host GPU/port capabilities (DP 1.4 + DSC) and the display’s HDMI 2.1 support to achieve 8K@60Hz or 4K@144Hz.
