Overview
The UGREEN CM449 (20518) adds an extra screen to a Windows PC through a USB-A 3.0 port, with both an HDMI and a VGA socket on the adapter. It creates one additional display at up to 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz; when both outputs are connected they show the same image. Unlike a passive adapter it is a software-driven USB graphics device, so the UGREEN driver must be installed first.
Is it right for you?
- Suits a Windows computer that has no spare video output but has a USB 3.0 port, and a monitor or projector with HDMI or VGA.
- Not for a second independent desktop from one adapter: HDMI and VGA share one generated image. For two independent screens, use separate adapters or a dock designed for it.
- Driver support covers Windows. macOS support is not confirmed, and a computer that blocks third-party drivers cannot use it.
- No HDCP (copy protection), HDR, 3D or HDMI-CEC, so protected streaming or disc content may show an error or blank screen.
Key features
- One additional display over USB-A 3.0, up to 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz through HDMI or VGA.
- HDMI can carry audio when Windows and the display select a supported format; VGA is video only.
- HDMI and VGA show the same image when both are connected.
- Aluminium alloy housing with ABS/PC parts and an attached lead of about 15 cm.
What else you need
An HDMI or VGA cable to the display; the box holds the adapter and a user manual, with no display cables. A Windows computer with a USB 3.0 port.
Installation
Install the driver first, then plug the adapter into a USB 3.0 port, connect the display cable and arrange the screen in Windows display settings. Plug it directly into the computer rather than through a hub where possible.
Software and licences
The UGREEN model driver is required and is obtained from UGREEN. The current driver is for Windows only; the adapter does not work as a passive cable without it.
Before you buy

- It does not accept HDMI or VGA as an input and is not a capture device.
