USB port DisplayPort Compatibility

[Simoné]

Good day

I would like to know if my device's USB C-type is DisplayPort compatible, as I would like to connect a 2nd external monitor to my laptop. I already have one monitor connected using the HDMI port.

Hi @Simoné,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

To determine if your HP Laptop PC 15s USB Type-C port supports DisplayPort functionality, you can follow these steps.

• Check your laptop's specifications: Look up the detailed specifications for your specific model of HP Laptop PC 15s. This information can usually be found on HP's official website or in the user manual.
• Inspect the USB Type-C port: Sometimes, the port itself might have a small DisplayPort icon next to it, indicating its compatibility with DisplayPort.
• Try connecting a USB Type-C to DisplayPort adapter: If your laptop's USB Type-C port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode), you can use a compatible USB Type-C to DisplayPort adapter to connect your second external monitor.

By checking these sources, you should be able to determine if your laptop's USB Type-C port can indeed support DisplayPort for connecting an additional external monitor.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
