Morning all

I have the above laptop with 1 x HDMI that I have plugged into a 27" Asus monitor, no other VGA or display outputs, I'm planning on getting another monitor from work but can I split the HDMI so I have all 3 desktops cast across all of them?

So laptop >>> HDMI >>> splitter>>monitor 1
>>monitor2

If so is there a good splitter I should buy?

Struggling to see all the spreadsheets and office products from home current

Thanks in advance!
 
Dell's specs say it has DisplayPort over USB-C (two in fact).

You can only split HDMI and end up with the same image displayed on both.

You can get USB to HDMI adapters. You aren't going to want to game on them, but for office work they're okay.

Hey thanks for the reply, I have a spare USB port so that would work well?

And no gaming on my work laptop just Office based is all

Thanks :)

Have to say Dell laptop configurations are poor to be honest , not many choices with 17inch screens and memory configurations

Actually Dell has a number of great 17 inch laptops - XPS, Precision, Alienware, but they are not cheap.

Regarding the 7390, you have to use the USB C port next to the power connector to connect your 2nd monitor. You can use a USB C to DisplayPort cable if the monitor has a DP input.
