USB C to HDMI cable

Anyone facing the same issue when extending the display to 2nd monitor using USB C HDMI cable? It was ok prior but suddenly the 2nd monitor cannot receive signal from macbook pro. At times, it takes more than 3 minutes and the display appears on 2nd monitor.


When using dock with hdmi port, it works fine.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Hi Grant. Thank you for your reply. Its Macbook pro 15 2019, Big Sur 11.0.1.

The issue is when connecting using Fibra Tough USB C to HDMI (usb c port on macbook pro to monitor hdmi port). Periodically, the display will appear after few minutes. Tried other USB C to HDMI, gives the same issue too.


Dock: Aukey (usb c with multiple ports including hdmi) - working just fine.
