Break though traditional desktop workspace limitations with the Vid-2X. Sapphire’s Vid-2X is a neat little device that allows two monitors to be connected to a single DisplayPort or Dual-Link DVI output. Several Vid-2X external graphics adapters can be used to create advanced multiple monitor configurations.
Dual Monitors on Laptops and Desktops
Multiple monitor capabilities are now standard on all modern desktop systems but what about hardware already deployed or mobile users with laptops and netbooks? In corporate environments desktops may be under lease preventing any internal modifications or upgrades. The Vid-2X is an ideal alternative to docking stations for adding an additional monitor to laptops.
Addictive
“Give someone a second monitor, let them use if for a while, and then try to take it away. It just isn’t going to happen.”
Suzanne Ross, Microsoft Rearch
“If you're looking for easy ways to improve your computing experience, one item that belongs near the top of any list is a second monitor. When you hook two monitors up to a computer, an interesting thing happens. Suddenly you'll spend a lot less time flipping through open files, programs, and e-mails, hunting for what you want. With all of that screen real estate spread out before you, you'll soon realize how much time you used to waste switching windows and looking for things. You'll then ask yourself, ‘How did I ever get by with just one monitor?’”

Just plug it in!
Easy to install, completely external. No need to mess with a system’s internals or even have to install a driver. Simply connect the device to the video graphics port on your existing adapter. Connect the unit to a USB port on your system and that’s it! Your operating system will automatically adjust and expose the new multi monitor functionality.
Stretch Your IT Dollars
IT departments are naturally resistant to adding another platform to their infrastrucutre for several reasons – unfamiliarity with new vendors, cost of training, and concerns about compatibility. Sapphire provides a simple and non-intrusive solution for multi-monitor support across operating systems and hardware platforms. For example, if multi monitor expansion is the only requirement, Sapphire’s Vid-2X can be used as a universal docking station across brands and models of laptops or avoid costly video graphics adapter upgrades in existing workstations. Simple and cost effective.
