Adding more screens to your computer should not be limited to the lack of video ports such as on base M1/M2/M3 Macs that only support a single external display via USB-C. Our Plugable Universal Graphics Adapter serves as a workaround that adds two HDMI ports to your computer through a single USB port. The Plugable UGA-HDMI-2S is an affordable HDMI splitter for dual monitor solution compared to a docking station.
With the UGA-HDMI-S, easily connect one HDMI monitor. Of course, adding an extra display is just the start. On Windows machines, combine multiple adapters to add up to 8 monitors. On a Mac, combine multiple adapters to add up to 4 monitors.
A hybrid 2-in-1 cable takes the guesswork out of picking an adapter that matches your computer. This HDMI dual monitor adapter works with the ports you have now, and the ports you’ll have on your next computer—USB 3.0, USB-C, USB4, even Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4. It’s compact, too, so it’s as portable as your laptop.
Although ideal for users working with web and productivity apps—like Google Docs, the Windows Office Suite, and internet use in general—these USB C to HDMI adapters are not recommended for gaming, graphics-intensive or design work. This USB to dual HDMI adapter doesn't support playback of HDCP-protected content on sites like Netflix and Hulu. On Mac, screen rotation is not available and clamshell mode is only available on macOS 12 when the laptop is connected to its power adapter.
