The Plugable UD-6950 (based on typical naming) is a USB 3.0 adapter that adds two HDMI 2.0 outputs plus a Gigabit Ethernet port to your Windows laptop, desktop, or tablet. Powered by the advanced DisplayLink DL-6950 chipset, it supports dual displays each at up to 4K (3840x2160) @ 60Hz, delivering crisp, fluid visuals for demanding workloads. This is the go-to solution for professionals who need extra screen real estate without opening their laptop.
With two HDMI 2.0 ports, you can connect 4K monitors at 60Hz each, taking advantage of the full resolution and refresh rate. The DL-6950 chipset leverages your system's CPU to drive the displays, making it compatible with virtually any Windows device that has a USB 3.0 port—even those with limited video outputs.
Alongside video, the adapter features a Gigabit Ethernet port for stable, high-speed wired connectivity. This is a boon for remote workers and gamers who need reliable network performance beyond Wi-Fi.
Installation is straightforward: plug in the adapter, install the DisplayLink driver, and your monitors are ready. The adapter works with Windows 10 and 11, and it's also compatible with macOS (with restrictions) and ChromeOS in some configurations. Note that 4K @ 60Hz is supported on both displays simultaneously, but ensure your USB 3.0 port delivers sufficient bandwidth.

Dual HDMI 2.0 outputs support two 4K @ 60Hz displays simultaneously, for stunning clarity and smooth motion.

The UD-6950's compact enclosure houses a thermal design that maintains performance during extended use. Its USB 3.0 bus-powered operation means no external power adapter is required, reducing desk clutter. For multi-monitor users, the adapter supports video extend and mirror modes, plus rotation for vertical monitors. The included detachable cable allows for flexible placement. Whether you're a financial analyst tracking multiple charts or a video editor previewing timelines, this adapter delivers the screen real estate you need.
It works with macOS if you install the DisplayLink driver, but Apple silicon Macs may have limited support. Check Plugable's website for detailed compatibility.
Ensure the DisplayLink driver is installed and your USB 3.0 port provides enough bandwidth. Try re-plugging the adapter and checking your display settings.
Yes, you can use any combination of resolutions up to 4K per port. Each output is independent.
Absolutely. The Ethernet port works independently of the video outputs, so you can use it just for wired networking.
I was amazed that this tiny adapter could drive two 4K monitors at 60Hz from my laptop. The installation was a breeze – just download the DisplayLink driver, plug in the adapter, and it worked. I now have a three-monitor setup (laptop + two external) with no lag. The Gigabit Ethernet is also a bonus. Highly recommended for anyone needing high-res productivity.
The adapter works well – I get two 4K monitors with crisp text. However, I noticed that if I plug it into a USB 2.0 port, the performance drops significantly. Make sure you use a USB 3.0 port for the best experience. Also, the driver needed a system restart, but after that, everything was fine.
I bought this hoping to use it for occasional gaming on a second monitor. The desktop performance is fine, but for gaming, the DisplayLink technology doesn't handle high frame rates well. There's noticeable lag. If you're just doing office work, it's fine, but not for gaming.
I have an older laptop that only has one HDMI port. With this adapter, I can finally connect two 4K monitors and an Ethernet cable. It's been rock solid for months. The picture quality is excellent. Definitely a worthwhile investment.
The dual 4K support is excellent. However, I didn't get Gigabit speeds on the Ethernet port – I usually see around 800 Mbps. That's still faster than Wi-Fi, so it's not a big issue. Just FYI.
I tried this with a MacBook Pro M1, and it didn't work well. The drivers are not optimized for Apple Silicon, and I experienced constant screen flickering. I had to return it. Maybe it works better on Windows, but I can't recommend it for Mac users.
I've been using this for a month with my Dell laptop. Two 4K monitors at 60Hz, no issues. The setup was simple, and it's been stable. The Ethernet port is a plus. Great product.
The adapter does what it's supposed to, but it gets quite warm to the touch after prolonged use. I haven't had any issues, but I'm mindful of it. Still, it's a small price to pay for dual 4K support.
Works perfectly. No issues.
