Connect HP EliteDisplay E273 to another monitor

[Toni78]

Hello,

I have a HP EliteDisplay E273m and I like to connect it directly to another monitor without a HDMI hub/switch. Can I connect this HP EliteDisplay E273 as a switch?   

As this display has some usb c can I use it to connect o HDMI or similar?

Thanks in advanced,

Antonio

@Toni78 -- according to: HP EliteDisplay E273m 27-inch Monitor

your monitor has one DisplayPort input and one HDMI input.  So, your monitor can "switch" between these two inputs, as you requested.

Do you have a video-cable with a DisplayPort connector at one end, and an HDMI connector at the other end?

Note that the monitor has two USB ports, to connect a mouse or a keyboard or a memory-stick.

The USB-C socket allows those devices to connect to a USB-A port on your computer, so that you can use those devices.  That is the only use for that USB-C socket.
