This article covers Club 3D Club3Dアダプター USB 3.2 Typ C > DP 1.4 8K60Hz HDR aktiv St.
Overview
The Club 3D CAC-1567 is an active USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 adapter designed for connecting modern laptops, tablets, and smartphones to high-resolution DP monitors or projectors. It supports resolutions up to 7680×4320 at 60Hz with HDR, making it a strong choice for creative professionals and anyone needing a rock-solid video link. The adapter is active (not passive), meaning it can convert USB-C video signals even when the host device does not natively support DisplayPort Alt Mode. Thunderbolt 3 compatibility broadens its usability across MacBooks, Windows ultrabooks, and select Android phones. The short attached cable with an UltraFlex jacket adds durability for travel or permanent desktop setups. DSC 1.2 support allows the adapter to push 8K60 HDR over a single USB-C connection, something passive adapters cannot achieve.
Connectivity & Compatibility
Input: USB Type-C male plug (USB 3.2 Gen2 compatible) Output: DisplayPort 1.4 female connector (backward compatible with DP 1.2) Supported devices: Any host with a USB-C port (including Thunderbolt 3/4) that can output video; active conversion means even hosts without DP Alt Mode may work. Maximum resolution: 7680×4320@60Hz HBR3 HDR (valid when source supports DSC 1.2); otherwise up to 4K@120Hz or 5K@60Hz without DSC. Standard compliance: DisplayPort 1.4, Thunderbolt 3, HBR3 (8.1Gbps per lane) Direction: Unidirectional – video from USB-C to DisplayPort only. Important: This adapter does not support Power Delivery pass-through (no PD charging). It is bus-powered from the USB-C port. Also, it is not bi-directional: you cannot connect a DisplayPort source to a USB-C display.
Product Info
Model: CAC-1567 Manufacturer: Club 3D Price: Approximately ￥7,751 ( Japan reference, as of June 2026) Warranty: 2 years manufacturer warranty * Accessories: Adapter only – no user manual or USB extension. Positioned as a mid-range active adapter, the CAC-1567 sits above simple passive cables in both capability and price. It competes directly with similar products from Cable Matters and Anker, but the Club 3D unit is one of the few that officialy supports full 8K60 HDR via DSC. The brand has a solid reputation among PC enthusiasts for reliable display adapters.
Best Use Cases
Creative professionals with 8K displays: Video editors and photographers who need the highest pixel density for colour grading or large canvas work will appreciate the 8K60 HDR support. The adapter keeps bandwidth headroom for HDR metadata. Mobile workers with dual monitors: Users who dock a USB-C-only laptop into a DisplayPort monitor for a second screen. The active conversion ensures stable detection across different host operating systems (Windows, macOS, ChromeOS). MacBook users needing DP output: MacBooks with Thunderbolt 3 often need a reliable adapter for DP monitors. The CAC-1567 is a plug-and-play solution that also supports 4K120Hz for gaming or high-refresh workflows. Not ideal for: Users who only require HDMI output, or those with a passive USB-C to DP cable already working at 4K60. Also, if you need PD pass-through, look for a dongle with charging support.
