Product Overview

AI-generated summary

At **£18.60 ex‑VAT**, this is the kind of no-drama adapter you buy when you need a *practical* dual‑monitor setup from a DMS‑59 graphics output. In day-to-day office and desk-side deployments, it’s a decent value: plug in, run two DP monitors, and you’re done. I’d particularly recommend it for office users or light graphics workloads where people just need reliable connectivity for productivity (spreadsheets, CAD light, multiple web apps). StarTech also tends to be more consistent than the generic “mystery cables” you find at that price point.

Where I’d be cautious: if you’re buying for **high-demand graphics** (design/3D, heavy motion work, or strict multi-monitor refresh consistency), adapters like this can be a weak link—especially across unusual monitor models, hubs, or cable runs. Also, make sure your setup actually matches the intent: you’re getting **two DisplayPort outputs from a single DMS‑59**, so it’s not for retrofitting random ports, and you’ll want to confirm your GPU supports the dual-head behaviour you expect. If you just need dependable dual displays and you’ve got the right DMS‑59 port, it’s a good buy; if you’re chasing absolute performance guarantees, I’d spend a bit more or go for a native multi-output GPU.
