Mascom International stocks the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter at KSh 2,000, brand new and sealed. This 10cm adapter takes the video signal from a USB-C port and turns it into DisplayPort 1.4, with support for up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 240Hz. The UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter moves data at up to 32.4Gbps, the full bandwidth of DisplayPort 1.4, inside an aluminium housing. You can pick it up at our store in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or have it delivered to your door.
Designed for gamers, video editors, developers and architects, the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter handles one specific job well. Many high-refresh monitors take their fastest signal through DisplayPort, yet thin laptops only offer USB-C. The UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter bridges that gap and lets you keep using the DisplayPort cable that came with your monitor. A JKUAT architecture student working on large CAD drawings across a wide second screen, or a freelance editor in Kilimani grading footage, can plug in and reach the monitor's full refresh rate without buying a new long cable.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell generic adapters that stop at 4K 60Hz, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter for buyers who need the bandwidth for 144Hz, 165Hz or 240Hz panels. The short, stiff body puts less strain on the laptop port than a dangling dongle on a long lead. Buyers throughout Kenya report that it clears the flicker and dropped frames they had with cheaper converters. Visit our Kimathi Street counter to see it run on a monitor, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives.
Common Questions About the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter
What is the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter price in Kenya?
The UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter sells for KSh 2,000, brand new in sealed packaging, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price covers a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya, payable in cash or by M-Pesa. For comparison, the UGREEN MM142 USB-C to HDMI Cable costs KSh 2,200 and the UGREEN CM556 USB-C to DisplayPort Cable costs KSh 2,400.
Do I need a separate DisplayPort cable to use the UGREEN CM654?
Yes. The UGREEN CM654 is a 10cm adapter with a USB-C plug on one end and a DisplayPort socket on the other, so you still need a DisplayPort cable to reach the monitor. Most gaming and design monitors ship with one in the box, which means you can usually reuse it. For full 8K or 4K 240Hz output, use a cable rated for DisplayPort 1.4, since older cables can limit the refresh rate.
Can the UGREEN CM654 run my 144Hz or 240Hz gaming monitor at full speed?
Yes, the UGREEN CM654 supports 4K at up to 240Hz and lower resolutions at high refresh rates, provided your laptop's graphics can output them. A 1080p 144Hz or 1440p 165Hz monitor sits well within its 32.4Gbps limit. Mobile gamers stepping up to a laptop, and esports players in Nairobi gaming lounges, use it to unlock refresh rates that HDMI 2.0 ports cannot reach. Set the refresh rate in Windows display settings once connected.
Should I choose the UGREEN CM654 adapter or the UGREEN MM142 USB-C to HDMI Cable?
Choose by the input on your screen. The UGREEN CM654 feeds DisplayPort monitors and supports 8K 60Hz and 4K 240Hz, while the UGREEN MM142 feeds HDMI TVs and projectors at 4K 60Hz over a built-in 1.5m lead. The CM654 is the right tool for high-refresh gaming and colour-work monitors at a desk. The MM142 suits boardrooms, classrooms and living rooms, where nearly every screen has HDMI and no DisplayPort input.
Which laptops work with the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter?
The UGREEN CM654 works with USB-C ports that support DisplayPort Alt Mode, including Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 and USB4. That covers MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models with USB-C, most Dell XPS and Latitude laptops, HP EliteBook and ZBook machines, and many ASUS ROG and Lenovo Legion gaming laptops. Ports marked for charging and data only will not send video. Bring your laptop to Mascom International and we will test the port before you pay.
Will the UGREEN CM654 survive daily use in a hot, dusty Nairobi office?
The aluminium housing on the UGREEN CM654 sheds heat better than plastic shells, which helps in warm rooms in Industrial Area or Mombasa without air conditioning. Its short length means there is no long lead to snag when you pack up and catch a matatu home. Dust settles in ports quickly in Kenya, so wipe the USB-C plug and blow out the DisplayPort socket every few weeks for a solid connection.
Does the UGREEN CM654 support a Mac running two external monitors?
The UGREEN CM654 drives one DisplayPort monitor per adapter, so two monitors need two adapters on two USB-C ports. How many external screens a Mac supports depends on its chip, not the adapter. Base M1 and M2 MacBook Air models support one external display, while Pro and Max chips support several. On Windows laptops with Thunderbolt 4, using two adapters on two ports usually works without extra software.
Who should buy the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN CM654 if your monitor has DisplayPort, you already own a good DisplayPort cable, and your laptop sends video over USB-C. It suits developers, video editors and gamers who sit at one desk. Skip it if your monitor only has HDMI; the UGREEN MM142 USB-C to HDMI Cable fits that setup. Skip it as well if you want one cable with no extra joint, because the UGREEN CM556 USB-C to DisplayPort Cable runs 3m in a single piece.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- DisplayPort 1.4 output — the video standard most high-refresh gaming and colour-work monitors use for their fastest input.
- 8K at 60Hz — four times the pixels of 4K, for 8K monitors when the laptop's graphics support that output.
- 4K at 240Hz — fine detail with 240 frames a second, so fast games and scrolling stay smooth.
- 32.4Gbps bandwidth — the full data rate of DisplayPort 1.4, leaving room for high resolutions and refresh rates together.
- DisplayPort Alt Mode — the laptop sends a native video signal through USB-C, so no driver or software install is needed.
- Picture and sound — DisplayPort carries audio, so monitors with built-in speakers or a headphone jack play the laptop's sound.
Compatibility
- Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 and USB4 ports — all keep DisplayPort video output and work with the UGREEN CM654.
- USB-C ports with a DP logo — many Windows laptops mark video-capable ports with a small DisplayPort symbol.
- MacBook Air and MacBook Pro with USB-C — connect directly; the number of external screens depends on the Mac's chip.
- Gaming laptops from ASUS ROG, Lenovo Legion and MSI — most route a USB-C port to the graphics card for video.
- Any monitor with a DisplayPort input — connect it with the DisplayPort cable you already own.
- Not for charge-only ports — some budget laptops send no video through USB-C, so test first if unsure.
Build
- Aluminium housing — a metal shell that sheds heat and holds up better than plastic when knocked about in a bag.
- 10cm length — short enough to keep the joint close to the laptop and put little weight on the port.
- USB-C plug — reversible, so it goes in either way up when reaching behind a laptop on a busy desk.
- DisplayPort socket — accepts the standard full-size DisplayPort plug found on most monitor cables.
- No external power — the adapter draws what it needs from the laptop's USB-C port.
- Pocket-sized — small enough to live in a laptop sleeve pocket, so it travels with you between home and office.
Inclusions
- The UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter, 10cm, sealed in UGREEN retail packaging.
- No DisplayPort cable — reuse the one supplied with your monitor, ideally rated for DisplayPort 1.4.
- No power adapter — the CM654 carries video and sound only and does not charge your laptop.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty, covered in full in the Warranty section below.
- In-store testing on request — try it with your laptop and a monitor at our Kimathi Street counter.

Inside the sealed box is the UGREEN CM654 USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter, a 10cm lead with a USB-C plug at one end and a DisplayPort socket at the other. No DisplayPort cable is included, because most monitors already ship with one. No charger is included either, since the adapter carries video and sound only.
