Hey there... I’ve got a quick question...
I’ve got a Late 2013 15in Macbook Pro that I am looking to run dual displays off of in the closed-lid “desktop” configuration. I’m wondering if purchasing 2 mini displayport/displayport cables will work to connect these 2 displays. I won’t be using the built in HDMI jack, just the 2 TB2/Mini DP Connectors on the left side of the machine.
I read somewhere that you might need an active converter or something like that but I wanted to come here first to set things straight.
For reference, the displays I will be using are 2 Samsung U28E510D 28” 4K panels. I have been running one of them just fine on a mini DP to DP cable, but I just wanted to make sure I’m in the clear before upgrading to a second display.
If you are at all confused... I am basically wondering if I can hook up one monitor to each of the thunderbolt 2 ports on my macbook without problems.
Please ask questions as needed... thanks in advance for the help!
