USB-C Monitors in South Africa - Single-Cable Video, Power and Data
A USB-C monitor carries picture, USB data and laptop charging down one cable. Plug in a compatible laptop or MacBook and you get the display, any peripherals routed through the monitor's built-in hub, and power sent back to the notebook, with no separate charger or video lead. It suits home-office desks, creative work and tidy setups where one connection replaces three.
Two things decide what a USB-C monitor can do: the video path and the power. Video runs over DisplayPort Alt Mode, built into most USB-C display inputs, or over the faster USB4 and Thunderbolt, which add headroom for 4K at high refresh rates, daisy-chaining and full docking. Power Delivery sets how many watts reach your laptop, commonly 65W, 90W or 100W, so match it to what your machine actually draws under load.
