Note: When using a DisplayPort 1.1 video card the MST hub will act as a splitter, automatically mirroring your video source across all
displays. Resolution limitations apply.
The MSTDP124DP supports plug-and-play installation for a hassle-free setup, and is backed by a StarTech.com
2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
Note: MST shares 21.6 Gbps across all attached displays. Higher resolutions can restrict the available bandwidth with the remaining ports,
please see our guideline below for determining an ideal resolution for your setup. Certain graphics adapters have limited MST support and
will only output to three displays in total. If more than three monitors are attached the fourth will be disabled.
