U2722D, can't connect to MacBook Pro M1

The U2722D/U2722DX #6 USB Type-C upstream port does not provide video, only data for the #7/#9/#10/#11 USB downstream ports. See page 12 in the online U2722D User's Guide. The U2722D only has #3 HDMI video in port and #4 DP in video port. You will need to purchase a USB Type-C to DP cable to connect the MacBook Pro to the U2722D.

The U2722DE has the #3 HDMI video in port, #4 DP in video port, and the additional #5 USB Type-C (video + data) port. See pages 13 and 14 =

Thank you for the information, Chris.

Do I need to buy https://www.dell.com/en-ca/shop/dell-adapter-usb-c-to-hdmi-dp-with-power-pass-through/apd/492-bctu/pc-accessories?gacd=9683780-3008-5761040-266662033-0&dgc=st&gclid=CjwKCAiAxJSPBhAoEiwAeO_fP_ZfhVRTqTV2Shdkn0Xe19ggvL3c9uYVZKDnNf9b35yAIkNNXwltOxoCGSgQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&nclid=u_iAsNNNdvpdx_d9kJ1Nk_MNo_4XT4UVKxl-x9wXkPKp0urAO-7sRQZ0khEaeRwh ?

You probably already have it resolved but  I used a Cable Matters USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 cable $19.49 from on Amazon. I just ordered a Maxonar USB-C to DP cable 8K to see if that allows the Dell Display Manager to work. Lot's of great features on the DDM for Mac OS. We really want to be able to use it. Please let me know if you have any luck.

Apologies for not seeing your question. The Dell or Cable Matters will work.

Rlent1,

I split you out into your own thread here.

Hi Rlent1!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience!

I ordered https://www.dell.com/en-ca/shop/dell-adapter-usb-c-to-hdmi-dp-with-power-pass-through/apd/492-bctu/pc-accessories?gacd=9683780-3008-5761040-266662033-0&dgc=st&gclid=CjwKCAiAxJSPBhAoEiwAeO_fP_ZfhVRTqTV2Shdkn0Xe19ggvL3c9uYVZKDnNf9b35yAIkNNXwltOxoCGSgQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&nclid=u_iAsNNNdvpdx_d9kJ1Nk_MNo_4XT4UVKxl-x9wXkPKp0urAO-7sRQZ0khEaeRwh on Jan 17. Dell notified me that the delivery had been delayed to Feb 9. I haven't been able to connect the new monitor to my Mac. It's been extremely frustrating.

Based on your experience, do you think https://www.amazon.ca/AmazonBasics-USB-Type-C-2-0-Cable/dp/B01GGKZ1VA/ref=asc_df_B01GGKZ1VA/?tag=googleshopc0c-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=292982079026&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4119514134056688313&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9001580&hvtargid=pla-297729870608&th=1# would work? That way at least I will be able to decide whether I should keep this monitor or return it.

* What W (wattage) power adapter shipped from Apple with your MacBook Pro M1? The Dell USB Type-C to HDMI/DP/USB Type-C adapter only provides 90W charging back to Laptop
* Have you tested with the Apple power adapter also connected to the MacBook Pro M1?
* Read through the existing U2722D threads on the Apple Forum. Then start a new thread out there explaining your issue, all cabling used. Let's see what otehr Apple users say

I'm using Dell Adapter USB-C to HDMI/DP with Power Pass-Through to connect my MacBook Pro M1 USB-C to #4 DP as you instructed. Each time every 1 hour of usage, it starts flickering. 

Chris,

I'm out of solutions. Can you help with this? Or is U2722D incompatible with MacBook Pro M1?
