It should work, but you may run into performance/stability issues because of all the conversions. This will help with reliability of the video connection. It's always best to limit the number of connections/conversions to ensure reliability.įinally, you didn't mention which mDP to HDMI adapter you are using, but you want to make sure you are using an active adapter (see link above for more details). Secondly, converting from TB3 to TB2 so you can use mDP HDMI is just adding another link in the chain which becomes another point of failure/trouble. Even if you convert from mDP to DP, you are only changing the physical interface, not the protocol or signaling. It's best to just stick with one protocol like DisplayPort. First off, the mDP to HDMI conversion can cause issues. That said, you may run into issues due to all the conversations. TB3 is backward compatible with TB2 and TB1.So, assuming that you are going from TB3 to a TB2 to a mDP to HDMI, it should work because: ![]() It's important to note this distinction because you cannot go from USB (A, C, or whatever) to Thunderbolt you go from Thunderbolt to USB (it's not bi-directional). USB-C and mini Display Port are interfaces while Thunderbolt, Display Port and HDMI are interfaces and signaling/protocols. Technically speaking what you are doing is this: Thunderbolt 3 -> Thunderbolt 2 -> Display Port -> HDMI
