B156-004-V2

Computer with DisplayPort 1.2-compatible graphics card (e.g. AMD Radeon with AMD Eyefinity)
required for video wall mode. Backward compatible with most DisplayPort 1.1a equipment running
current graphics drivers with feature set limited to that of your equipment. Compatibility with older
graphics cards not guaranteed.
MST-compliant DisplayPort 1.2 graphics cards are limited to a bandwidth of 21.6 Gbps amongst all
monitors with higher resolution monitors using up more bandwidth. 1080p monitors will use up
approximately 22% of bandwidth, whereas 4K monitors will use 40% or more. As each monitor will be
different, it is necessary to verify the percentage of bandwidth being used by each monitor in the display
settings interface of your graphics card. If the total percentage of bandwidth taken up by all the
connected monitors exceeds 100%, an image will not display on one or more of them.
Maximum supported video resolutions and number of monitors will be dependent upon your graphics
card. Check the specifications of your graphics card to determine its capabilities.

(MST) Hub, 3840 x 2160 (4K x 2K) @ 60Hz, UHD,
TAA
MODEL NUMBER: B156-004-V2
Displays the same image on 4 DisplayPort monitors, extends the desktop across them, or combines all
into one large monitor. Ideal for digital signage in schools, churches, conference rooms, trade shows and
retail outlets.
Description
The B156-004-V2 4-Port DisplayPort 1.2 MST Hub connects up to four DisplayPort monitors to the
DisplayPort output on your computer. Ideal for digital signage in schools, churches, conference rooms,
trade shows, hotels and retail outlets, this hub allows you to display the same image on all four monitors,
extend the desktop across them, or combine all four into one large monitor in video wall mode.
The B156-004-V2 is compliant with DisplayPort 1.2 and backward compatible with versions 1.1 and 1.1a
with the feature set being limited to that of your equipment. It supports high-definition video resolutions up
to 1920 x 1080 (1080p) per monitor. In video wall mode, this hub supports expanded video resolutions,
such as 3840 x 2160 (4K x 2K) @ 60Hz in a 2 x 2 monitor configuration or 7680 x 1080 in a vertical 4 x 1
configuration.
