Frequently Asked Questions

1. What operating systems are compatible with the B156-004-V2? The hub is compatible with all operating systems. However, note that Mac OS X does not support MST for NVIDIA and Intel Graphics Processor Units, limiting video display to mirror mode.
2. Can I use this hub with older graphics cards? The B156-004-V2 is backward compatible with most DisplayPort 1.1a equipment. However, compatibility with older graphics cards is not guaranteed, so it is essential to verify your hardware specifications.
3. What is video wall mode and how does it work? Video wall mode allows you to combine multiple monitors into one large display. For instance, in a 2 x 2 configuration, the hub supports a resolution of 3840 x 2160. To utilize this mode, a DisplayPort 1.2-compatible graphics card is required.
4. How do I know if my monitors are receiving a signal? The B156-004-V2 features LED indicators that show whether each connected monitor is receiving a signal from the hub.
5. What should I do if my monitors are not displaying anything? If you encounter display issues, check the display settings of your graphics card to ensure the total bandwidth used by all connected monitors does not exceed 100%. Adjust your setup if necessary.
