2 ways to support video output on laptops using USB Type C.
1) A USB Type-C cable will be able to transmit audio and visual signals using DisplayPort technology.
It accomplishes this by using an Display Port Alternate Mode (“Alt Mode”) to deliver full DisplayPort performance, including support for 4K, 5K, and existing DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, and VGA-enabled displays.
