Question about Microsoft Surface Pro 7

I have completely lost track of the USB-C versions. Apparently there are several versions that can do different things, but you can't tell from the plug. I want to connect the Surface Pro 7 to my monitor with a USB-C to USB-C cable. The Surface should be charged via the monitor using the USB-C cable and also transfer the video signal from the Surface device to the monitor. Can anyone tell me if the built-in USB-C connector can do this or is it only for data transfer? Thanks

Helpful answer

Here I assume that this Surface Pro has it. The description says...

More connectivity options
USB-C and USB-A ports for connecting to external displays, docking stations and other devices, as well as charging accessories.

There are actually clear brands for the ports, but for technical design reasons this is rarely done.

I hope I was able to answer your question.
