A cable with the right plugs. Without knowing what model of Mac you have and what ports your display has, we cannot advise on what you specifically need.


Identify the ports on your Mac - Apple Support


You'd need a cable from the Mac port to the display input. If your display has several, preferred order is Thunderbolt 3 > USB-C > DisplayPort > HDMI > VGA.
