Two external displays in Vostro 5470
Hello everyone,
I have a Vostro 5470. Actually, I connect an external display in HDMI port.
Can I connect another external display in my laptop USB3.0 port using Dell Adapter - USB 3.0 to HDMI/VGA/Ethernet/USB 2.0?
My laptop has support? That is for work, I really not need high resolution.
Any comments are appreciated!
Kind regards,
Matheus Serpa

Hi MATHEUS SERPA,
What is the current OS installed on the system?
I have checked and could not find a Dell Adapter compatible with your specific system model. However, these two are known to work with other Vostro models and it might or might not work on your machine. You probably need to try it out and let us know - http://dell.to/1Y9DDqo
Or if you are looking only to duplicate the display, you could get a HDMI splitter - usually priced under $10.
Also, write me a private conversation with the service tag and your contact details(Name and Email) for case records.
Let us know if you have any other queries.
