How to Run Dual Monitors from Surface Pro 6

PLA74 on 12/08/2021 - 13:02

Hello,

I'm trying to help a friend who has a Surface Pro 6 device and wants to connect two external monitors in extended mode. Trying to see if there are any options apart from purchasing a Microsoft Surface dock for business (around $300 online) and using mini-dp to HDMI converters as dock only has two mini-dp ports.

Thanks!

    Its got a full size USB port so just buy a usb3 displaylink dock. I use a Lenovo one that I bought from ebay for under $100 (Secondhand), and has worked on every windows device i've tried that has usb3

        You need USB C, if not you can get a adaptor.

          Thanks mate. Ended up buying a new Microsoft surface dock for business with AC adaptor privately for a reasonable price!
