## Description

Product description Extend Your Display the Fast and Simple Way Expanding your computer's screen real estate shouldn't be limited by the number of video ports, as is often the case with base M1/M2/M3 Macs that support only one external display via USB-C. The Plugable Universal Graphics Adapter provides a practical solution, adding two HDMI ports to your computer through a single USB connection. The Plugable UGA-HDMI-2S offers an affordable alternative to a docking station for creating a dual-monitor setup. Windows and ChromeOS users can expand even further by integrating the adapter with an existing docking station, expanding their setup to support up to eight 1920x1080 (HD) displays with multiple adapters (two 1080p displays per adapter, up to 4 on macOS). It also enables users to customize a triple or quad display setup by combining it with a single USB-C dock, enhancing productivity and efficiency. Whether you’re adding additional displays to the dock you already have or just need a straightforward way to expand your screen real estate, the HDMI Dual Monitor Adapter for 2 monitors provides a seamless and efficient solution. Moreover, the compact and portable design of the adapter allows users to extend their displays from anywhere—whether at home, in the office, or on the go Note: Actual performance and the number of supported displays can vary based on system specifications and the specific Silicon Motion hardware in use How to Install SiliconMotion software for macOS Note - macOS requires ‘ Screen Recording’ permission for the SMI software to work.

Review: Works in Ubuntu 20.04 with Wayland - So I found a driver from SiliconMotion that says it supports Ubuntu 20.04 (and mentions Xorg specifically at the end of the install cycle reboot screen), but I still only see 3 screens in the Cinnamon desktop from the Intel integrated graphics card after reboot. HOWEVER: when I log into a Wayland session, the USB display does show 5 unique displays. I have one monitor capable of 2560x1440, But it's plugged into the integrated adapter which doesn't support above FHD. So all 5 are at FHD. But I fully expect this device to work at higher resolution on that monitor whenever I get around to untangling the mess behind the desk. Note that I previously had a PCI graphics card that had the same problem... generic driver installed successfully, then the additional screens won't show in X, but they do show up in Wayland, so it's probably working in X, just my specific variant of ubuntu (not official release) or all the messing around with X config i've done over the last 5 years is the root cause that it isn't supporting more than 3 screens, or more hardware attached after initial install... But this does confirm that at least with a wayland session, this product does work with linux! Now Wayland on ubuntu 20.04 is still not quite production worthy... but I've read that later ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04, Wayland runs better. I still have a couple things that work for me in 20.04 that I haven't confirmed will continue to work after an OS upgrade (without switching from 1 time licenses to monthly maintenance... but this is way off topic.) Total time to see pixels on screen <1 hour. The driver I'm using can be obtained from siliconmotion (dot) com/downloads (as of 19 May 2025.)
Review: Seamless, works perfectly - Adding some more monitors to my system for options trading. Went from 4 monitors to 6 on Win10. I am running an AMD5950X, 128GB, Win10 Pro, and 3070. I had 4 monitors on the 3070 and added this device and easily added 2 more monitors. Simply install the correct plugable software and then plug in the additional monitors. No problem running my additional 1920 x 1080 monitors, Win10 sees all 6 monitors. I might add two more monitors. wow, that was too easy. UPDATE ++ Now running 8 monitors without issue, great product, hope it lasts a few years.
