iMac Pro adaptor to HDMI as second monitor?
iMac Pro adaptor to HDMI as second monitor?
Attempting to add second monitor to my setup (Dell U2713hm or HP L2745w) via HDMI.
I attempted to use TB3/USB-C to HDMI cable known compatible with new MBP but it does not work with iMac Pro.
Computer doesn’t acknowledge anything is connected.B&H recommended this which did not work
https://ezq.com/usb-c-hdmi-cable-60hz-2m.htmlI posted on Apple’s Community Forum and the only recommendation was Apple’s
USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter
https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MJ1K2AM/A/usb-c-digital-av-multiport-adapter?fnode=85&fs=f%3D27imacpro_2017%26fh%3D459d%252B499c
Which is not all that great given it’s limited to 30Hz at 4K.Seems others are having issues finding a viable solution.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8262750So perhaps there’s a serious compatibility issue.
Can anyone CONFIRM a TB3/USB-C to HDMI solution that is 60Hz?

Apparently I’m alone in this or everyone is using Display Port to USB-C.
In any case I found I had to reverse the cable and push very hard to snap in.
This is not something I needed to do using my Apple TB3 cable which doesn’t seem to “lock” like the USB-C cable does. It might just be the specific manufacture’s cable.
