I am looking to get external portable monitors for my Alienware laptop and it has a HDMI, mini displayport and USB C output (I am not sure if the USB C supports thunderbolt). I intend to have 2 portable monitors but unless I get an adapter that makes my 1 hdmi port into 2 (so I can have two hdmi to mini hdmi cables) I'll be limited to 1 extra monitor.
Whilst checking sites to see if a cable that does mini dp directly to mini hdmi (I have not found any such cable yet) I found that I could do a mini dp to hdmi adapter and then a hdmi to mini hdmi adapter. I then came across the issue that some of those cables were listed as not bi-directional which I assume would be an issue for a monitor.
Any cable/adapter recommendations? Do any such mini dp - mini hdmi cables exist?
