I want to output video from my laptop to 3 or 4 external monitors and extend their displays through hdmi. Will this device work for me?

If it works like the 2 port version that I purchased, then yes it should feed up to 4 monitors.

If you HDMI output from your computer, then yes it should. 1 HDMI input and 4 HDMI output.
1462562
yes, i think this would work. i currently use one that splits 1 input hdmi into 4 hdmi. it works simultaneously or one output source at a time. for example, either tv and projector or both tv and projector.

You will be mirroring the displays, not extending them. All monitors will have the same content.

No it does not work for different monitors, you need a video card for the extended monitor to work.

Yes it will. it will also allow you to hook up to three (3) monitors all to one (1) laptop or computer. it works well. download the software & set it up. it that simple.

I recently connected it to my work laptop running 8.1, without the USB driver "fix" I had to do previously. It basically seems to work, although only with 2 of my 4 monitors. Maybe if you just need to hook up 2 monitors, you'll be fine...

I don't see why it wouldn't work, since all three ports wouldn't be used simultaneously. I however don't have a 3 port, I just switch between inputs with different hdmi cables. 3 port is a good idea.

I've had my laptop hooked up to an HDMI monitor at the same time as this USB monitor, so I had three monitors going at one, but I've never tried two USB monitors.

Yup, answer below is correct. This will work for mini-displayport to 1 device whether DVI HDMI or regular DP. This does not support multi-device output.

Yes definitely. I have two of these cables and use them to connect monitors to my laptop and to my wife's laptop. Her monitor also has an HDMI input but the monitor's performance with this cable is far better than with an HDMI to HDMI cable which severely limits the available resolution settings on the monitor.

Hi Jennifer. I think it should work just fine. My laptop only has an HDMI port as well and this adapter works great for PowerPoint projectors and monitors. It was a convenient, low cost work around. Good luck!

it is designed to feed two monitors from a single computer. I do not know if it will work the other way.

It should work fine. I have used this device as a second connector to an old monitor that lacked an hdmi input as well as on my computer for dual screen capabilities (1 hdmi port and 1 dvi port, but I only use hdmi cords). I hope this helps.

I use it to extend the desktop from my laptop to another monitor and it works just fine. I don't have personal experience beyond that. If you are extending to more monitors than the main and one more, you may be able to use two adaptors; just a guess.

Personally I would go with an DVI to HDMI cord. And use the two DVI ports. Or two DVI to HDMI adapters. The only way to do what you are talking about is a HDMI Splitter box even then I do not think it would work for what you want, HTH Mark

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

I used it to hook a bunch of devices to my tv but if a hdmi cable to your laptop it would work I would think.What im using it for ,its awsome

I am assuming you want to "extend the displays"? If this is so then no, your video card needs to have two monitor ports in order to "extend the displays". You will only be able to mirror them with this splitter.
