If you have issues connecting the display To charge Apple Lightning-based devices and accessories - such as iPhone, iPad, AirPods, Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad 2, and Magic Mouse 2 - you can use the Apple USB-C to Lightning Cable or a combination of the Apple USB-C to USB Adapter and the Apple Lightning to USB Cable. The LG UltraFine 5K Display provides 7.5W to each of its three downstream USB-C (5 Gbps) ports.

If you're using this adapter, you need to also connect your Mac to power using the power supply it came with. Power isn't delivered from the display to your Mac when you connect with the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter.

The LG UltraFine 5K Display provides up to 85W of power over USB-C and will fully power MacBook Pro (2016 and later) and MacBook Air (Retina, 13-inch, 2018) using the included Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) cable. With the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter and a Thunderbolt cable, you can use the LG UltraFine 5K Display at 4K and lower resolutions with these Mac models:

You can use the LG UltraFine 5K Display with these Mac models at full 5K resolution: Compatible Mac models are grouped below by the resolutions that they support. The LG UltraFine 5K Display requires a compatible Mac running macOS Sierra 10.12.1 or later (macOS Sierra 10.12.2 or later is recommended). System requirements and compatible Mac models
The display has three downstream USB-C ports (5 Gbps) that offer additional connectivity and power to compatible devices and accessories. When you connect the display using a single Thunderbolt 3 cable (included), it provides up to 85W of charging power to your MacBook Pro with Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports. Integration with macOS lets you control your display's volume and brightness without the need for physical buttons on the display.
Passive/active isn’t remotely “IC vs no IC” (and literally never is) it refers to where the signal is generated and where the conversion takes place.The 27-inch LG UltraFine 5K Display features a 5120 x 2880 resolution, a P3 color gamut, 500 cd/m2 of brightness and built-in stereo speakers, camera, and microphone. So again, it’s not semantic as the difference you regard here (IC vs no IC) isn’t actually a relevant difference to what’s actually being discussed here at all. In the case of the Mac Pro or MBP to get more than 2 HDMI outputs you needed active adapters - passive ones wouldn’t work. Most GPUs (or at least when MiniDP was relevant) could only create 2 HDMI signals but 6 DisplayPort ones. This doesn’t matter so much for VGA as there aren’t active adapters, or if there are, they’re very rare, but this matters MASSIVELY in the real world for HDMI. Active adapters convert a DisplayPort signal inside the adapter. Passive adapters request the specific signal from the GPU. Except it’s not semantic, as Active and Passive DisplayPort adapters literally have defined meanings in the DP standard and literally have completely different meanings to the irrelevant one you’re applying.
