mac mini to usb-c monitor
Hi
I have a Samsung monitor (Samsung LC34H890WJUXEN) which has 3 ports:
* HDMI
* DisplayPort
* USB-C
I already use the HDMI and Displayports for other devices, switching between them as needed.
Is it possible to connect a mac mini 2018 using the USB-C port on the monitor connected to a Thunderbolt 3 port on the mac? Would this drive video output to the monitor? The usb-c port on the monitor can also be used as a charging port (max 65W). Would this output power from the monitor damage the mac mini?
If I can connect the mac mini to the monitor, can I use a standard usb-c to usb-c cable or does it need to be a Thunderbolt 3 specific cable?
Thanks in advance
Mac mini 2018 or later
