HDMI®output, with support for high-denition 1080p and 1920x1200 video and 5.1
surround sound audio (from HDMI®port only). The adapter delivers a convenient
external video solution that makes it easy to add multi-monitor capability to a USB-
enabled desktop or laptop computer (optimal performance from USB 3.0, backward
compatible with USB 2.0).

adapter functions as a convenient external graphics card that eliminates having to
open the computer case for video card installation. The adapter delivers smooth, high-
denition content to multiple displays and can be used to mirror your primary desktop,
showing the same image on each display, or to extend your desktop onto a second or
third monitor to double or triple your workspace and increase your productivity.
