Unhappy Interesting...

Thanks for the reply...

Here is my current configuation :
Toshiba Tecra Z40t-C --> DisplayLink 4K --> View Sonic VG 2439m

So, if I understand correctly,

I cannot run two displayport capable monitors via a single displayport cable (daisy-chained/MST) via the DisplayLink 4K? If so, how exactly does a DisplayLink 4K
benefit someone?

If I cannot daisy-chain the monitors via displayport, can I use multiple video ports
off the back of the DisplayLink 4K and still have extended desktop capability?

The way round this is to add another USB->DisplayPort adapter to get another display available as you can daisy chain on the USB.
Kind regards,
