Multi Stream Transport (MST) Hub

Introduction
The DisplayPort (DP) Multi-Stream Hub enables you to connect up to four LCD monitors to a computer. For
desktop users, adding extra monitors will be much easier than opening the computer chassis and installing
an internal video card.
The DP Multi-Stream Hub, with add-on monitors, provides the following benefits:
More monitor screen area so that more applications on the screen are visible at one time. For example, you
can work on one monitor while performing a separate task on another.
Elimination of stack windows within the confines of a single display.
Expansion of spreadsheet applications across two, three, or four displays.
Minimize computer resources to ensure display quality without compromising system
performance when using multiple monitors.
System performance is an important issue when using multiple monitors. Another benefit of this hub is
that it uses minimal computer resources, ensuring display quality with less impact on computer
performance.

Recommend system requirements
The DP Multi-Stream Hub requires the following:
Computer that supports DisplayPort 1.2 with multi-stream support*
•
Microsoft Windows:
#
-Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit or 64-bit editions)
-Windows 8 (32-bit or 64-bit editions)
*Use of the DP Multi-Stream Hub with a computer that does not meet this specification is not supported.
Quick start guide
#
*The Scan key only use when the PC does not recognize the HUB device.
Troubleshooting
Here are the steps to solve possible problems.
Scenario: No video on any downstream monitor connected:
1. Check the LED to make sure the hub has power. Use only the power adapter that was provided with the
hub.
2. Check that each downstream monitor is powered on.
3. Check the DisplayPort cable to be sure it is connected to the computer and hub. Use only the DisplayPort
cable that was provided with the hub for the connection to the computer.
4. Check the computer or graphics card user manual to confirm that DisplayPort 1.2 and a multi-stream
video signal are supported.
5. Check the Windows Display Control Panel to confirm that the downstream monitors attached to the hub
have been detected and enabled.
#
Scenario: No video on some downstream monitors connected:
1. The hub can support up to four monitors at 1920 x 1080 resolution or two monitors at 2560 x 1600
resolution. NOTE: Playing audio over the DisplayPort connection will reduce the number of monitors the
hub can support.
2. Check the DisplayPort cable to be sure it is connected to the hub and monitor. Use only the DisplayPort
cable that was provided with the monitor for the hub connection.

3. If the monitor is a DVI or VGA monitor, check the DisplayPort cable to be sure it is connected to the hub.
Check the other end of the cable to make sure the DisplayPort-to-DVI or DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter is
properly connected to the DisplayPort cable and to the monitor.
4. If the monitor is a DVI or VGA monitor and the cable and adapter are properly attached, test the monitor,
cable, and adapter with another computer.
5. Check the computer or graphics card user manual to confirm the number of multi-stream video signals
that are supported and the maximum resolution.
6. Check the Windows Display Control Panel to confirm that the downstream monitors attached to the hub
have all been detected and enabled.
7. Check the monitor with no video to confirm the DisplayPort input has been selected.
Scenario: Same image appears on all downstream ports:
1. Check the computer or graphics card user manual to confirm that DisplayPort 1.2 and a multi-stream
video signal are supported.
2. Check the Windows Display Control Panel to confirm that all downstream monitors are set for extended
mode.
3. Update the video driver to the latest version available to enable the multi-stream functionality.
