How many monitor can HP 14-fq1030can use?

[Karo9951]

Hi,

I just bought my first HP 14-fq1030ca. It's was suppose to support many monitor... but I can only make the HDMI works. The USB-C to display port is not detect. The cable is working with another laptop (Dell one).

So I'm wondering if there is any limitation cause I need 2 external monitors.

      USB-C port in specification is 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate

Thanks,

Caroline

Its specs

        https://support.hp.com/ie-en/document/c07598577

It ONLY has 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate port 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

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

For more connectivity (including more monitors), please use

                                True Universal Docking Stations

Hi, 

Thanks for your answer. But I don't understand cause no warning in the specification and USB-C and USB-A have same description.

Thanks,
