StarTech.com MSTDP124DP 4-Port DisplayPort 1.2 MST Hub

Brand:

The StarTech.com MSTDP124DP is an active DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport hub that expands one compatible DisplayPort output into four DisplayPort outputs. It supports up to four independent 1080p displays at 60Hz and resolutions up to 4K at 30Hz, subject to shared MST bandwidth and GPU capabilities. Designed for Windows systems, it provides a practical solution for expanding workstation display capacity without installing additional graphics hardware.

OVERVIEW

  • The MSTDP124DP is an active DisplayPort 1.2 MST hub that expands one compatible DP output into four DP display outputs for multi-screen workstations, control desks and professional environments. Compatibility: Windows systems with DP 1.2 MST support. Model comparison: Unlike basic signal splitters, MST supports independent extended desktops as well as mirroring. What to check: GPU display limits and total 21.6Gbps MST bandwidth before selecting a multi-monitor resolution configuration. 

USE CASES

  • Multi-Monitor Workstations: Connect up to four DisplayPort monitors to one compatible DP output.
  • Financial Workstations: Keep trading platforms, charts and business applications visible simultaneously.
  • Control Rooms: Display multiple monitoring dashboards from one workstation.
  • Office Productivity: Extend the Windows desktop across multiple screens.
  • Digital Signage: Mirror content across multiple compatible displays.
