  • Extend Mode (A-BCD): Each external monitor displays unique extended content, different from your laptop screen. This supports quad displays (laptop screen + 3 external monitors).
• Mac OS: Due to macOS limitations (does not support MST - Multi-Stream Transport), external monitors will display the same content.
  • Mirror Mode (A-AAA): Tutti i monitor esterni visualizzano lo stesso contenuto dello schermo del tuo laptop.
  • Extend Mode (A-BBB): External monitors display the same extended content, different from your laptop screen.

Resolution Notes:

• Single HDMI 1: Up to 4K@60Hz.
