Just to confirm, this does work with LG 5k monitors? The resolution there is 5120x2880, which is significantly more (the vertical resolution alone is doubled, and then some for the horizontal), but I don't know the refresh rate, so the bandwidth could still be similar maybe.
EDIT: I'm also wondering, the only switch I know to be working uses two display port cables to the monitor (which I'd have to adapt to one Thunderbolt 3 instead), while your device only uses one. That doesn't bode well...

- ianhowson 6y agoIt won't work with the LG Ultrafine 5k, which requires a Thunderbolt connection to run at full resolution, and behind-the-scenes is a tiled pair of DP1.2 displays. It ought to work with a DisplayPort 1.4 5k, though there aren't many of those.
- anyfoo 6y agoThanks. So as far as I can tell, that ridiculously expensive switch is still the only option (if even, I wasn't able to fully confirm), and nowhere near worth the cost vs. just physically swapping the cable between computers.
