Hello. What type of cable ends do I need to connect my HP Laptop with my new Dell Monitor?

Hello Everyone!     2/6/2023

I own an HP AMD Silver 30500 Silver with Reader Graphics and 4.00 GB with a 64-Bit operating system - no pen or touch input is available for this screen.  I was then given two 24-inch DELL Monitors and would like to set up at least 1 Dell monitor with my HP Laptop monitor, so I can read and see objects in the Dell Monitor better since it's much bigger in size.  My problem is that I don't know which type of cable to purchase. My two Dell Monitors have one HDMI input on the back of monitor and the inputs on my HP Laptop consist of 2 USC input ports, an audio input, and a Display Monitor input on the right side of my HP Laptop and one USB-C input along with some type of mini-scan card reader.  Could anyone in this forum tell me the correct type of cable end and/or connector ends, I should purchase to connect 1 or 2 of the Dell Monitors to my HP Laptop?  My name is Patrick, and my email address is: [personal info removed]  Thank you!

Your machine is an HP Laptop - 14-dk1003dx which is a member of the HP Laptop 14-dk1xxx family. Its specs

            https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06617062

It has

• 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate;
• 2 SuperSpeed USB Type-A 5Gbps signaling rate;
• 1 HDMI 1.4b;
• 1 RJ-45;
• 1 AC smart pin;
• 1 headphone/microphone combo

Its USB-C port is hope less which does NOT support Alt mode nor Power Delivery. You can NOT use it to

• Charge your machine,
• Connect to an external monitor with/without hub/dock/adapter (some hubs may have builtin chip to support this)

If you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only), you can use

• Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,
• Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

                                     USB to HDMI Adapter

You can use standard HDMI version 2 cable to connect your monitor to your machine.

Regards.
