Tripp Lite by Eaton 4-Port DisplayPort to HDMI MST Hub — 4K 60 Hz Multi-Monitor Splitter

The Tripp Lite by Eaton 4-Port DisplayPort to HDMI Multi-Monitor Splitter is a purpose-built expansion tool designed to dramatically increase your workstation’s display real estate. Specifically engineered as an MST (Multi-Stream Transport) hub, it channels a single DisplayPort 1.2a output from your laptop or desktop into four independent HDMI displays. This makes it an ideal solution for professionals who need to monitor multiple data streams at once, gamers who want immersive multi-monitor setups, educators delivering engaging lessons, and organizations building dynamic digital signage. With 4K 60 Hz support where conditions allow, you can enjoy sharp, fluid video and crisp text across displays, enabling more efficient workflows and richer media experiences. The device is compact enough to travel with you, yet robust enough to sit on a desk for extended periods, and it carries the TAA designation to meet procurement requirements for many enterprise and government environments. Designed for plug-and-play convenience, it reduces the need for multiple video ports on your computer and simplifies cable routing, while maintaining the flexibility to mirror or extend your desktop across displays to match your exact task.

• Expand to four HDMI displays from a single DP port: This MST hub takes one DisplayPort 1.2a connection and fans it out to four HDMI outputs, dramatically increasing your screen footprint. It’s perfect for traders, designers, engineers, educators, and digital signage networks who need simultaneous visibility of multiple data streams without swapping cables or upgrading the host graphics solution.
• 4K 60 Hz compatibility for high-fidelity visuals: When paired with capable displays, graphics cards, and appropriate HDMI cables, the hub supports up to 4K resolution at 60 Hz across the connected monitors, ensuring sharp details and smooth motion for video, timelines, and complex layouts. This makes detailed dashboards and multi-source monitoring feel natural and responsive.
• Flexible MST technology for extended or mirrored layouts: The hub leverages DisplayPort’s Multi-Stream Transport to deliver either an extended desktop, showing different content on each HDMI output, or a mirrored presentation across displays. This gives you the freedom to tailor your setup to the task at hand, whether you’re monitoring separate telemetry feeds or presenting a cohesive, multi-panel briefing.
• Plug-and-play reliability with robust compatibility: No external power supply is typically required, and the device is designed for easy integration with Windows, macOS, and Linux environments that support MST. Its compact design fits neatly on a desk or in a portable bundle, while EDID pass-through options help maintain display consistency across all connected screens.
• Durable, compliant, and backed by Tripp Lite: The unit is TAA-compliant and RoHS-friendly, reflecting its suitability for enterprise and government procurement. Tripp Lite backs the product with trusted engineering and a solid warranty, ensuring long-term reliability for busy multi-monitor deployments.

How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton 4-Port DisplayPort to HDMI Multi-Monitor Splitter

1) Connect the DisplayPort source from your computer to the splitter's DP input using a high-quality DisplayPort cable. 2) Attach each HDMI display to one of the four HDMI outputs on the MST hub with standard HDMI cables. 3) Power on the displays and set them to the desired input. 4) Ensure your graphics card and operating system are configured to support MST and, if necessary, adjust display settings to extend or mirror as required. 5) Verify that each monitor is detected and configured with the appropriate resolution and refresh rate. If needed, use your OS display settings or GPU control panel to arrange the monitors in the correct physical order and orientation. 6) If your system requests additional configuration, enable MST mode in the GPU settings and confirm EDID behavior to achieve consistent output across all four displays. Enjoy your expanded workspace with synchronized or separate screens as your workflow dictates.

Frequently asked questions

• Q: How many displays can I drive with this MST hub? A: Up to four HDMI displays can be driven from a single DisplayPort 1.2a source, assuming your GPU and monitors support MST and the configuration preserves the desired resolution and refresh rate on each display.
• Q: Do I need an external power adapter? A: In most setups, the hub is bus-powered and does not require an external power supply. However, certain high-demand configurations or longer cable runs may benefit from external power depending on system capabilities and monitor requirements.
• Q: Will this work with any operating system? A: The MST hub is designed for compatibility with common operating systems that support MST-enabled GPUs, including Windows, macOS, and Linux variants. Real-world results depend on the GPU’s MST support and driver configuration.
• Q: Can I mirror the same content on all four displays? A: Yes. The MST hub supports mirroring (clone) across displays when the host and software environment are configured to duplicate the source content to all outputs. For extended workspaces, you can spread different content across the four monitors.
• Q: Is the device durable for travel and office use? A: Yes. The unit’s compact form factor, combined with a rugged build and TAA compliance, makes it suitable for both portable use and steady office deployments. It’s designed to withstand daily connection and disconnection cycles.
