A Glorious 27" HP Monitor with Docking Station Function - Yes please!

I've got a laptop that has a USB-C 3.1 gen 2 port. If I connect to one of these screens can I daisy chain a second one from the first and they both connect via single USB-C?

if the laptop supports Display-alt mode then yes.. it's not always clear or documented. if it has a 8th gen intel the likelihood is higher. I don't know of any Ryzen that supports it.

 

I have those budget DFE Dynabook laptops with a Celeron that do support DisplayPort alt mode. (the A30)

 

but others do not, if you know the exact model of laptop you might find it in the specs somewhere.

 

EDIT on re-read. Assuming you have DisplayPort Alt mode for any picture from your laptop, then YES the docking monitor has a DisplayPort output on the back for a second monitor. (You can run 2 monitors from a single usbc port)

 

I used a DisplayPort to vga adaptor to run an old display and it worked great.

We have this setup in the office - We've connected the E243D to an E243M and then to a laptop via USB C - so we get power/ethernet/display/keyboard/mouse etc all from the user having to just plug in one USB-C to their laptop

 

P.P.S. sorry to be a nuisance but I made Dave an offer last night to buy all the stock he had
