Important operation notes
• MST is certified for operation with Microsoft® Windows 10, 8/8.1
and 7 devices.
• MST is currently not supported by other operating systems
such as Mac OS X and Chrome OS™.
• Other operating systems might adopt MST in the
future. Verify MST support with your operating system
manufacturer.
• Operating system support is subject to change. For the
latest requirements, please visit:
www.StarTech.com/MSTMDP123DP.
• After the MST hub has been connected to your computer it may
be necessary to initiate the operation of additional displays from
within your Windows Display Settings.
• The SCAN button resyncs all of the attached displays, and can be
utilized if any of the displays are not detected.
• The MST adapter works with DisplayPort cables up to 15 ft. in
length.
• Certain graphics adapters have limited MST support and will only
output to three displays in total. If more than three monitors are
attached, the fourth will be disabled, including built-in laptop
monitors or touchscreen displays.
• MST shares 21.6Gbps of bandwidth across all attached displays.
Higher resolutions can restrict the bandwidth available for the
remaining ports. Please see our guidelines below for determining
the ideal resolution for your setup.
