Projectors can be connected with long and flexible USB wiring that doesn’t lose monitor configuration information. Multitask with a dedicated monitor for each document or application. The adapter works by rendering 2D/3D with your computer’s CPU and GPU, and then compressing and transmitting over USB any pixels that have changed. Dual core or 2Ghz or better CPU recommended. The monitor itself is then constantly refreshed directly from the USB hardware. The adapter package includes a USB 2.0 cable and hardware adapters for the different connector types (DVI to VGA and DVI to HDMI). No power plug is needed - power is provided by USB and the adapter has an LED indicator light.Multiple Displays We often hear customers say “After using multiple monitors, I can’t go back!”.
