C1422H, Alienware Desktop, cable query

I purchased a C1422H to serve as a second display for an Alienware desktop, but unfortunately didn't check if the desktop had video-capable USB-C ports. I'm now trying to use a bi-directional USB-C to Displayport cable, but it's still not connecting. How can I get this monitor working with this machine? Thanks!

    What specific Alienware Desktop model?

    DP out from PC to C1422H USB-C was never tested by Dell. The C1422H User's Guide pages 6 and 8 only show the provided USB-C to USB-C cable.
