(6) USB Type-C port with
DisplayPort Alt-Mode
(upstream)
Connects a USB Type-C cable to a source device such as a computer or game
console. This USB Type-C port supports DisplayPort Alt-Mode for video input or as a
USB 3.2 connection. This port can also be used to deliver up to 140 W of power to a
device. Power outputs are 28 V/5 A, 20 V/5 A, 15 V/5 A, 12 V/5 A, 9 V/3 A, or 5V/3 A to
achieve a 140 W output.
NOTE: This port also enables the USB Type-A ports to perform their functions. The
host device must be able to support DisplayPort Alt Mode (video, charging, and USB
3.2) over the USB Type-C connector.
WARNING! This monitor’s USB Type-C port supports PD3.1 and can provide a
maximum output of 140 W. HP recommends that you use products that are protected
by the USB Type-C PD3.1 specification (be sure that they can input 28 V/5 A and have
a fire enclosure).
