There is a DVI monitor connection as well as a VGA monitor connection on the doc.You could use a DVI to HDMI Adapter:AmazonBasics HDMI to DVI Adapter Cable - 9.8 Feet (3 Meters)

No, HDMI cannot handle resolutions over 1080... You need either DVI or DisplayPort...

MANUFACTURER ANSWER:Thanks for posting your question here, Gayle! Plugable UD-3000 USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station for Windows 10, 8, 7, XP (HDMI/DVI/ VGA to 2048x1152, Gigabit Ethernet, Audio, 6 USB Ports, 20W Power Adapter) only has one graphics port and hence you would only be able to connect one external monitor via this dock. You would need to get Plugable UD-3900 to connect two external monitors of which at least one should support input via HDMI.Hope the above information helps!

Faizon, I would assume that if you are using the VGA cord from your monitor and plugging it into the VGA portion of this cable and then plug it into the USB of your of your docking station that should work. I assume you are trying to get a second monitor for your docking station. I would try and see if your docking station has two VGA or at least a DVI-D connection for the second monitor, but that may not be an option for your docking station or even your monitor for the DVI-D, But I would check that first before buying this item. I used this cable for a second monitor on my tower station and have not tried it on a docking station. Hope this helps.

VGA is very picky about connection quality. That's why I'm only using this device to switch keyboard and mouse. I connect the display through DVI or HDMI or DisplayPort directly then switch on the monitor itself.

The only port that can be connected to the monitor is a RGB blue serial cable. This cable connects to my pc via the VGA port. My video card has VGA, DVI and HDMI ports. My answer therefore is that VGA is definitely present, as for DVI I suppose you would need and adapter, considering that the cable provided along with the monitor is a bluw RGB VGA cable. I hope that helps.

Yes you can. You just need a VGA cable. The same one you use to connect your computer hard drive to the monitor.

You need the convertor adaptor to do so.....I done it before for HDMI, but never try VGA.

I haven't tested it, but I belive it is possible via hdmi. The box cant tell the difference its if the monitor will accept the signal

Yes for one video output only. If you are trying to use this for dual monitors it is not capable without a docking station.

Yes, I have one of the four ports connected to my Lenovo T410 laptop with a docking station running dual monitors with no problem. The docking station had a VGA port and a display port.

yes! As long you have the right connecter on both end's "" Its like using vga,HDMI or DVI output on monitor""

Yes there is a VGA port on the back for a standard monitor. NOT HDMI. There is a PCIe slot inside that you can plug an additional video card if you buy a seperate one.

it's a VGA adapter for HDMI port. HDMI is the best resolution like a TV. I'm not positive of your resolution needs but if it's high resolution then yes HDMI will be able to display it.

Yes, using VGA adapter or HDMI output. It's a good picture. The stand is a little flimsy. If your desk is not stable, this big monitor shakes pretty easily.

Dear Susan, I just tried it and I don't think so. I have this dock driving a 2560x1600 display through the display port. There is an HDMI port left over. Just for you I hooked up a 1080p display through the HDMI. I couldn't get the dock to detect or talk to the HDMI display until I disconnected the display port display. Bottom line, one display, unless you jump through the hoops of the first answer.
