Only worked a month. No longer works with 2 monitors

I bought this product about a month ago to run 2 1080p 60Hz monitors through the same displayport on my GTX2080 Super and it was working fine except for 2 a few days ago just didn't work with two monitors connected. I've tried plugging the micro USB power input into various USB ports on my machine, and even with an Anker plug plugged into the outlet. I spent about $50 on this item when I bought it and I've noticed that the price fluctuates everywhere every time I check Amazon. This is not the…

Didn't work for me for accessories and consumables. Compatibility

I had a 10 foot DisplayPort male/male cable and a <6 foot Display to DVI cable and wanted this adapter use for his connections. all together. Both cables will work with that monitor and computer, but using either cable with this adapter will not work. So if 16 feet isn't over a necessary threshold, I don't think this adapter is worth anything. Serves me right if I try to use this instead of buying a new 10" Display Port to DVI cable.

Pros
  • - This MST hub is DisplayPort 1.2 compliant. Source device graphics card and display must support DisplayPort 1.2 and MST
Cons
  • Available in white only

Do not buy this item, it's a waste of money.

This adapter never worked, I tried it with multiple cables and devices. I finally opened it (I'm an EE). This horribly designed, non-functioning $15 adapter that Revain sells consists of two connectors and a printed circuit board (PCB). The whole thing is then dipped in epoxy which is then covered with cheap Chinese plastic. It took me forever to open it to see what was wrong with it. It was a ground wire. It probably never got attached, but the people who made this thing didn't notice since…

Pros
  • Fully Potted Connector and Housing - Nickel plated connector provides corrosion resistance and potting provides excellent strain relief for superior connection and long product life.
Cons
  • Big and bulky
