of Monitors Supported: 2 (M1/M2 Base Chipset MacBook or USB-C Alt Mode laptop supports only a single external display)

The obvious conclusion is that this isn’t practical, or at least some significant compromises are required in what you can realistically connect and how it might work. Laptop Cable provides ideal length for various connection needs and accommodates multiple power tips to be tethered to the cable at one time via four power adapter retention rings –providing a convenient solution for mixed deployments or shared workspaces Another slightly odd choice is that the top is slightly recessed, creating a tray of sorts for small change, or whatever. On the rear is a PSU power input, USB-C downlink from the computer, three each of DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0, a Gigabit LAN port and four USB-A 3.1 Gen2 ports. The pins on the USB-C cable help you do more than a traditional USB–A connector that works in only one direction

Summary:

Your laptop or device must have a USB-C port. (Using an adapter on a USB 3.0 Type-A port will not work.) Overall, the compromises made to achieve triple displays are too great, and most users would be better with a dual-screen option and plugging the third display directly into the laptop to reduce the bandwidth overhead. If you are willing to accept dual display output, there are many alternatives that offer better value for money and those with Thunderbolt 3 are less bandwidth compromised. After working closely with DisplayLink (Synaptics) on the updated driver, and conducting extensive testing to ensure support on the above-mentioned Kensington products, we are happy to share that an updated driver (v10.1 M1) is now available. Please navigate to synaptics.com where you will find the latest driver from DisplayLink. In whatever ways 10Gb/s is divided, it won’t adequately supply three 4K displays, six USB ports each requiring up to 10Gb/s, a Gigabit Ethernet port and the other less bandwidth-hungry items on here.

The software embedded in the USB-C laptop determines what types of functions are allowed via its USB-C port. Dual video is only supported on Windows 10 and 8.1 devices (Mac and Chrome USB-C devices do not support dual video over MST). How well this works for any specific user is entirely dependent on many factors, such as the laptop host hardware, the resolutions of the monitors and the amount of motion on the displays. If you don’t have USB-C and are using the provided USB-A to USB-C cable that Kensington kindly includes, then a maximum of two 4K displays is possible.While the issue is not limited to Kensington products using DisplayLink, the below products from Kensington are currently impacted.
