This is the triple portable monitor I am looking to purchase, with power & data through their on-board USB-C ports to the MacBook:

In brief, what you describe will not work.

To expand further, DisplayLink USB video technology has two parts. A device with DisplayLink hardware inside of it, and the DisplayLink software installed on the host computer.

You cannot use the DisplayLink software without a device that has DisplayLink hardware inside of it.

The information at the link you provided indicates that the product does NOT have DisplayLink hardware inside of it.
