FAQ

Question: Does this work with the surface dock? (ie, a surface pro 4 connected to the surface dock, with two active adapters from the dock to DVI monitors?)

Answer: Yes. I just bought two of these and it works perfectly.I have two surface docks and I got a pair with hdmi and a pair with DVI. They both work perfectly.

Question: Why is the seller or manufacturer of this device not addressing the misleading advertisement? Is this adapter "active" or "passive"?

Answer: I don't know boss, only the seller can answer that one for you, but I can tell you that for me they are working in an environment that requires an active adapter. (7950 Crossfire setup, quad monitors) AMD specifically specifies active adapters when addressing that number of monitors, and it would not work with the passive adapters I had before. That's as much as I can give you, hope it helps.
