Its specs

 

           https://support.hp.com/rs-en/document/c07918611

 

It has following ports

 

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

Its USB-C port does not support DP Alt mode nor USB Power Delivery

 

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


For more connectivity, please use (this won't charge your machine)


                         True Universal Docking Stations

 

Regards.
