It works, with some unrelated caveats

Well I like that it's not overly promising, but for the unexpected consumer there are many factors in this easy purchase that he/she doesn't necessarily think about got to . There is power pass-through, but the device itself needs to be powered on via a separate USB2-USB-mini connection, and power only passes through when the device is selected for display. Remember that your Mac only outputs to ONE external monitor. It's not really such a bad little adapter that's the problem, but it came as a surprise to me, so I'm just warning other users. Finally, consider how you want to set this up: Do you want to connect two computers to the same monitor? If so, does your monitor have USB-C, DP, or HDMI? Or do you want to connect two monitors to one computer?
