Expansion Port - LaCie 2big Dock Thunderbolt User Manual

Expansion Port

DisplayPort 1.2
DisplayPort is a digital display interface used to connect a video source to a display device (for example, a
computer monitor) as well as other forms of digital data. DisplayPort is backwards compatible with VGA, DVI
and HDMI audio/video interfaces through the use of an adapter (not included).
The 2big Dock passes the signal through the Thunderbolt 3 or USB 3.1 connection to the DisplayPort 1.2
expansion port.
Note on DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI adapters: The DisplayPort 1.2 on your LaCie 2big Dock does

not support DP++ to HDMI adapters. If you do not have a DP 1.2 to HDMI adapter but still want
to connect to an HDMI display, it's recommended that you daisy chain your LaCie 2big Dock to
the display using a USB-C to HDMI adapter (not included). This configuration is only possible if
the LaCie 2big Dock is connected to your computer via a Thunderbolt cable.
Connec ng the DisplayPort
1. Insert the DP 1.2 end of the cable or adapter into the port on the back of the LaCie 2big Dock until it
clicks into place. The cable/adapter is now locked into the DP 1.2 port.
