Will this cable Duplicate the my main laptop monitor OR extend it to 2 separate monitors?

This cable will only duplicate 2 monitors. You will have your main screen example if you are using this on a laptop. Then you will have your laptop screen and you will have a extra screen on two monitors. Both of these monitors will display the same thing. If you want 3 separate monitors you will need another video card. I know they have a few Usb video card options

It will only duplicate what's on your monitor. You need additional hardware to have additional views on additional monitors.

it will just duplicate it to another moniter, and you just see double but if have large monitor it would work.

Yes, I had this connected to two external monitors. So was able to use the two external monitors and my laptop's monitor.

If the driver has 2 monitor support which this one does .I don't believe it will extend the desktpo though because it only has one display path.

No - it will allow your macbook to extend the desktop onto one external monitor.To add a 2nd external monitor, you'd need a USB driven graphics device.

Hello, I do not think that you would be able to connect an additional monitor unless there is a way to do that by USB

Yes. Ha,ha ... I use mine to extend my desktop and it works fine. Don't forget to change your windows settings for dual monitors. If you don't, then all you will do is duplicate the monitor. Hope this helps!

Hello Peter. The Pro Series VGA Monitor Y Cable should work if you add another monitor to it.

yes. You will be able to have 2 separate external monitors side by side that will act as a large single display spread across the two monitors and your laptop monitor can be positioned to the left or right of these external monitors. If you put your laptop in between the two external monitors your mouse will scroll from the laptop to the first external monitor then over to the next external monitor ... with the laptop in the middle your mouse will move LAPTOP to MONITOR 1 to MONITOR 2 - so it is best to put the external monitors side by side LAPTOP - MONITOR 1 - MONITOR 2

Your laptop should have an analog vga 9 pin plug or an hdmi port for one monitor. You would only need one of these adapters for the second screen.

This cable converts an HDMI output to a VGA output. That is, it does not add a new video output it merely changes the connector on an existing output. that being said if your are able to plug in an HDMI monitor or HDTV and extend your laptop video (most laptops WILL do this) then this cable will allow you to use a VGA monitor to extend your laptop display. To be sure search for your laptop make and model using Google and add "dual display" to the search string. Something will come up if this is possible.

No. This will duplicate what you are seeing on one monitor to another one. It will not enable expanded desktops or separate monitor areas. Was pretty darn disappointing.

The splitter allows you to send the same signal to two external monitors. Extending your desktop requires two video feeds - one to your existing monitor and another one to a second monitor. If you have a laptop PC, you could plug a second monitor into your SVGA connector (if you have one) or HDMI connector (if you have one) to extend your desktop. If you have a box PC, you will need a second video card for the second monitor. Then, you could duplicate your desktop on the second monitor, or you could extend your desktop on the second monitor (different info displaying on the two monitors). The splitter cannot extend your monitor, but could be used to duplicate it. I hope this information helps you.

This is simply a splitter that duplicate input signal. 4 different "monitor/TV" screens will have the exactly same content. For multiple displays with different content, you need multi-display graphics adapters.

I am not sure. Duplicating in general not good for hi res when monitors have different specs.

There are 2 DisplayPort plugs, 1 HDMI, 1 VGA and 1 DVI. I've had no problems running a dual-monitor setup, but I doubt that whatever humble business laptop you're docking this into has the GPU capability to simultaneously display on 4 monitors. A better question you should be asking yourself is why on earth would you want a quad-monitor setup for docking your laptop. Swordfish was just a movie dude.

correction..... I read the question too fast. I have no problems with the 3rd monitor. 2 works fine - 1 external and the laptop as the 2nd. sorry for the confusion

Clone mode only, your video card needs 2 outputs to extend across 2 monitors.
