U2419HC/U2719DC are USB Type-C monitors. If you are connecting to any other video in port, to activate the USB downstream ports, you must also connect the USB Type-C cable (C to C) from the monitor to the PC USB port.

Thanks. The included cable is too short.

Our F05PG USB Type-C to C cable is only 1m/3ft long because the marketing design was for a PC configuration as shown in the sales picture =
For a PC further away from the monitor, you will need to purchase a 3rd party 6ft USB 3.1 Type-C to C cable. Like this one.

Would this work?

The specifications look like it should work.
