U2715H, Dual daisy chain, MacBook Pro USB-C

I have a MacBook Pro that only have four USB-C ports, and I have two U2715H. Is it possible to daisy chain these monitors and feed them from one USB-C port ?

Several untested unknowns there. The U2715H was never tested on the proprietary Apple operating system and hardware =



Second, all of our initial daisy chain testing/validating was done via a Windows computer source DP (DisplayPort) or MiniDP, not using USB-C source ports. As you can see on page 25, the source was DP out =

In theory, this could work =

* Computer USB Type-C out --> USB Type-C to DP cable --> #1 U2715H DP in port (left) (DP 1.2 Enabled)
* #1 U2715H DP out port (right) --> U2715H DP to mDP cable --> #2 U2715H mDP in port (center) (DP 1.2 Disabled)

You should also ask the Apple users on their Forum.

It's quite shocking to see that a big company as Dell is only testing their products with Windows systems.
