The table above shows the maximum supported resolutions. Actual resolution varies based on the specifications of the host device. MacBooks with the Apple M1 chip only support single monitor display. Intel based MacBooks, Apple M1 Max/Pro MacBooks, and Apple M2 MacBooks support dual monitor display with extended desktop when using a USB-C to HDMI video adapter (not included). Determining Your DisplayPort (DP) Version:
The version of DP on your laptop, computer, or tablet directly determines the actual resolution when connecting to external monitors using the Anker hub. There are three simple ways to find out which version of DP your device has.
1. Ask your device manufacturer or seller directly.
2. If you're using a Windows device, you can tell which version of DP you have by checking your CPU generation. DP version 1.2 if your CPU is Intel generation 10 or earlier. DP version 1.4 if your CPU is Intel generation 11 or later. DP version 1.4 if you're using a workstation laptop with an NVIDIA GPU.
