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.

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.
