HP 15-ef0875ms
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Good afternoon,

 

I'm starting a new work from home job and my new company told me that they will be supplying me with an HP 15-ef0875ms. I see that the USB-C port doesn't support charging, so I don't think my current docking station will be compatible. Does anyone know if the USB-A or USB-C ports support video output so that I can hook up 2 external monitors? The computer does have one HDMI port on it, but I've never seen a display adaptor that splits one HDMI into 2 ports.

 

Thanks,

Mike

Its USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C™ (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate) is hopeless in terms of video connection. HDMI splitters won't give you what you wish therefore you can use DisplayLink Certified USB-A  to HDMI/DP .. adapter or

Hello @glassercannon .
The following ports do not transmit video:
1 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C™ (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate); 2 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A (Data Transfer Only).

 

You will need to get a male to two female HDMI splitters.
