Connecting Dual Monitors or a single Higher Refresh Rate Monitor
You can add up to two external monitors to the TS4 as long as your computer’s
Thunderbolt ports support dual displays. M1 Pro, M1 Max, Intel based Macs, Thunderbolt
4, and Thunderbolt 3 PCs support up to dual displays. Some early Thunderbolt 3 PCs do
not support dual displays. Check if your Thunderbolt 3 PC supports dual displays. Users
on original Apple M1 computers, or on USB-C PCs can only connect a single display to the
TS4. In addation to the dual monitor support, TS4 can support an external monitor with
higher refresh rate showing below.

*Some refresh rates require DP 1.4, HBR3 and DSC 1.2 support from host, GPU and monitor. Some Thunderbolt 3 hosts
that only support DP 1.2 will be capped at a lower resolution & refresh rate. The bit/color depth may vary in order to
support higher refresh rates. The support of higher refresh rates may vary due to OS updates.
