About
DisplayLink is a USB display expansion technology that works across macOS, Windows, ChromeOS, Ubuntu, and Android, on Apple, Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, and ARM SoCs. It lets you connect more displays through USB-connected docking stations, adapters, and portable displays, with a plug-and-go setup.
The site describes docking stations and adapters with video outputs such as DisplayPort, HDMI, and DVI/VGA, plus integrated features including Ethernet, audio, and splash screens. Its DisplayLink Status API provides information on dock-connected peripherals, link speed, and status, which can be used for IT dashboards.
The text also covers the DisplayLink Direct SDK for embedded systems and meeting-room equipment. It notes the product line is trusted by partners including Google, Lenovo, Logitech, Sennheiser, and Yealink. Note that the text does not mention a macOS app specifically; the Mac support it describes is hardware-based.
