[2.2 oz / 61 g] I bought this two years ago and have had zero problems with it. I hooked up the USB power cord to an extension cable to give me ample room. It takes two DisplayPort monitors and daisy chains the signal so it can go into a single DP connection. 5

[2.2 oz / 61 g] A great solution when wanting to run multiple DVI-D monitors from a single display port output on a desktop. I purchased this MST adaptor (MSTDP122DP) and passive DP to DVI-D cables (DP2DVI2MM6) however after speaking with the knowledgeable guys in technical support I actually needed their active cables (DP2DVIS) to run my DVI monitors with the MST adaptor. A very happy customer. 5

[50 - 90%] I have not put this into a real scenario yet, it will be 2.5 months, but so far, it is working as advertised. Replaced an old splitter from another company. 5

[50 - 90%] Splitting sheet music for band musicians! it is great! 5

[Bus-powered] If you have a device that only has one (1) DisplayPort the 3-Port MST Hub works wonders to add an additional two (2) displays. In today's workspace two monitors are nice but three makes it better. The 3-Port MST hub is easy to use making it an inexpensive/easy upgrade to add additional display. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review. 5

[Bus-powered] Make sure to actually use the usb output that matches the computer your are testing your mouse+keyboard with. I had the keyboard+mouse not working like some mentioned in other comments/reviews. I contacted the support team which helped me make it work correctly. It's silly but we never know what would have with lack of coffee :) . 5

[Bus-powered] Works great and is easy to use, you can even daisy chain them together. The power brick is very loose when plugged into a electrical socket but a bit of gaff tape easily fixes the problem. 5
