Before you begin
You can connect up to three 4K external displays using the USB-C ports available on your XPS 15 9530.
Before you begin, ensure that you check the ports available on your external displays and decide on the modes of connection.
NOTE: Regardless of the Discrete Graphics Controller (dGPU), all external displays are controlled by the Integrated
graphics controller (iGPU).
Modes of connection
Depending on the connectors available on your external display, you can connect the displays to the Thunderbolt 4 USB-C port
on your computer using:
● Thunderbolt 4 cables, adapters, or docking stations.
● USB-C cables, adapters, or docking stations.
NOTE: To experience the full resolution supported by your external displays, use appropriate cables. For example, use
DisplayPort or HDMI cables for 4K and above resolution.
NOTE: USB-C or Thunderbolt docking stations can be used to connect external displays to the computer using a single
USB-C cable, while charging the computer. For more information about the types of docking stations available from Dell,
see the knowledge base article 000124295 at www.dell.com/support.
NOTE: USB-C adapters can also be used to connect external displays to the computer, though these do not allow power
charging at the same time. For more information about the types of USB-C adapters available from Dell, see the knowledge
base article 000125728 at www.dell.com/support.
