Connect Two 4K Displays from a Single Thunderbolt Port on a Mac or PC
This is the official quick overview of Sonnet’s Thunderbolt to Dual DisplayPort Adapter, a compact, bus-powered, Mac and Windows compatible device that enables you to connect two 4K DisplayPort (DP) displays @ 60Hz, or one 5K @ 60Hz DP display to a single Thunderbolt port on your computer. Backward-compatible with 1080p HD displays, this adapter is great for use for different home and office workspace applications. Compatibility with active HDMI, DVI and VGA adapters enables connection of non-DisplayPort displays.
Sonnet’s Thunderbolt™ Dual DisplayPort Adapter is certified for use with both Mac® and Windows® Thunderbolt equipped computers, and enables you to connect two displays to a single Thunderbolt port on your computer. With the adapter connected, you can connect two 4K @ 60Hz DisplayPort monitors, or two 1440p @ 144Hz monitors.
Whether you need to view your work across two displays, or you need to view it with the highest resolution possible, this Sonnet plug-and-play adapter enables you to work more efficiently. With two displays attached, you can fill one with full-screen workspace, and use the other for tools, other applications, and more.
To use it, simply plug in the Sonnet Thunderbolt Dual DisplayPort Adapter into one of your computer’s Thunderbolt ports, and connect DisplayPort cables (sold separately) between the adapter and your monitors. Your computer powers the Sonnet adapter, so there’s no need to connect an additional power adapter.
Thunderbolt Certified for Mac® and Windows®, the Sonnet Thunderbolt Dual DisplayPort Adapter can be used with the latest and best computers available. If you need to connect a monitor without a DisplayPort (DP) input, the Sonnet dual DisplayPort adapter is compatible with active DP-to-HDMI, DP-to-DVI, and DP-to-VGA adapters. And, unlike USB adapters, the Sonnet adapter won’t drain system resources that might impact your computer’s performance.
Although the Sonnet adapter supports two monitors at resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 (4K), you can also use it to connect monitors with lower resolution, like 1440p or 1080p monitors at higher refresh rates. This makes it great for use for different home and office workspace applications. And, with built-in audio support, there’s no need for you to connect an additional cable to hear sound from the monitors.
