Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I currently have 1 external monitor connected to my laptop via HDMI + adapter to type-c (it's the only port I have for a monitor).

 

Now I need to have 2 external monitors, which I want to use in 'extended display' mode, not 'duplicate'.

I've read that an HDMI splitter does only allow to use 'duplicate' mode.

 

Is there a way to connect 2 external monitors, in 'extended mode' to 1 type-c port?

If you wish to have 2 or more external monitors (and notebook monitor - total 3), please enter your requirement on the following link and it will find for you few USB-A DisplayLink Certified options on market today including some HP products (you can select HP before Search)

Using HDMI you can't daisy chain monitors, using USB-C monitors you can daisy chain (DP may be able to do but I'm not sure).

 

Regards,
