This product meet all expectations. Great to consolidate to a single adapter. Very fast shipping. Works as expected.

This product is trash. The only way to fix it is to restart my whole computer. Contacted amazon anyways but no luck.

Quality


Then i stumbled onto plugable works as advertised very easy to use and keeps the wires to a minimum


For daily use its a great product


The stock cables that came with the device must be in my case subject to the pin 20 problem


The obvious concern is how much lag will there be and is there a loss in quality

Competitiveness


Ive been using displaylink adapters with laptops for years and they do an amazing job mostly


Use it for output from a mac mini late 2012 to a 4k display with 3840 x 2160


Do not try to plug this into a usb3


Cant use both concurrently and neither can drive dual 4k60

    I have a surface book 2 and for some inexplicable reason they limit you to either driving monitors out of the surface connect port or the usb c port

    I dont think theyre limited by pcie slots either but i suppose i could be wrong


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Im still not sure if ive understood how this functions correctly so i could be totally off base


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But from everything ive read it sounds like displaylink works by essentially creating a virtual monitor and sends the data for it as a regular data signal rather than a video signal to this chipset which then deciphers the data and converts it to a video signal to be sent to your monitor

    The obvious concern is how much lag will there be and is there a loss in quality


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As for the lag its nearly nonexistent


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Normal use there is no way youd notice anything even watching video id say its virtually unnoticeable
