Yes, you can pair the monitor with another curved monitor and a laptop. The HUB function of the ViewFinity S6 S34C652VAU supports daisy chaining, so you can connect both monitors via USB-C and DisplayPort. To do this, you must activate DisplayPort 1.2 and MST in the settings. There are no fundamental restrictions due to the HUB function as long as the monitors and the cable support the necessary standards.
You need to buy a USB cable that has a USB type B plug on one end (for the USB upstream port on the monitor) and a USB type A plug on the other end (for the PC). This cable is often referred to as a USB 3.0 type B to USB type A cable. It enables the use of the USB hub and the KVM function on the monitor.
Yes, you can connect the monitor to your MacBook Air 15 inch. The monitor has a USB-C connection that transmits the video signal, power supply (Power Delivery), USB data and Ethernet via a single cable. So you only need a USB-C cable to connect the monitor directly to the MacBook Air, without additional adapters.
It is important that you use the monitor's USB-C port, as this also supports video. HDMI or DisplayPort are also available, but USB-C is usually the simplest and best solution for MacBooks. If your MacBook Air does not have a suitable USB-C port (which is the case with current models), an adapter would be necessary, but USB-C is standard on most new MacBooks.
Also note that the monitor offers a QHD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels) with a 100 Hz refresh rate and supports HDR10, which ensures very good picture quality.
Yes, the Samsung ViewFinity S6 S34C652VAU supports daisy chaining, which requires connecting your computer to the primary monitor via a USB-C cable and then connecting the first monitor to the second monitor using a DisplayPort cable from the "DisplayPort Out" port. You also need to enable DisplayPort 1.2 and/or MST in the on-screen display (OSD) settings of both monitors to make it work.
The daisy chain connection with these monitors only works via USB-C, not via DisplayPort or HDMI. You have to connect the laptop to monitor 1 via USB-C and then connect monitor 1 to monitor 2 via DisplayPort Out (DP 1.2). HDMI does not work for daisy chain. In addition, MST (Multi-Stream Transport) must be activated in the settings of monitor 1 so that the signal is forwarded to the second monitor. USB-C is therefore mandatory for the first connection and DisplayPort cable is used between the monitors.
To summarise:
- Laptop → USB-C → Monitor 1
- Monitor 1 (DisplayPort Out) → DisplayPort In → Monitor 2
- Activate MST in monitor 1
- HDMI or USB-C between monitor 1 and 2 does not work for daisy chain
If you currently have to connect two USB-C cables to your laptop, this is because you have not connected the monitors correctly via daisy chain. An expensive hub is not absolutely necessary if the connection via USB-C and DisplayPort is set up correctly.
This display does feature a USB-C port for both charging up to 90W and data transfer. This port also facilitates Ethernet connection via an integrated LAN port and supports the Daisy Chain function for extending the workspace with multiple monitors. It also has a DisplayPort and an HDMI port.
To connect an external display to a 24-inch iMac, you will need either a Thunderbolt or Mini DisplayPort cable, depending on which ports the iMac and the external display have. You can also use the iMac as a second monitor for another Mac by activating "Target Display Mode"
the USB C port at the back of the screen is between the DisplayPort (DP) and the port labelled "PC".
However, your computer must also support a USB-C connection in a version that enables video transmission (at least USB-C 3.1).
If your computer does not have such a USB-C port, I recommend connecting via DP
In my opinion, no additional cable is needed to use the screen as a USB-C hub including LAN and power for the notebook. Works for Windows and Mac OS for me. The answer below looks AI generated 😉
You don't have to unlock anything. The whole thing is a little tight, but that's the way it should be. Simply hold the monitor by the back of the stand and then adjust the tilt. I have just tried it again. Good luck :-)
It is possible to connect an external camera to this monitor, as it does not have a built-in camera. You can use the available USB ports to connect an external camera. However, make sure that the camera is compatible with the monitor and that you have the necessary cables for the connection.
