MacBook Pro M2 2023, use Dell Dock D6000

I purchased a MacBook Pro M2 2023. I want to connect it to the monitor's work provided to work from home. The Monitors are Dell use HDMR and connect to a D6000 docking station. Is there a way to hook my Mac to the dual monitors? The monitors only have HDMR ports the dock station only has 1 HDMI port. Here is what I have tried.


HDMI to MAC = No luck

Type c to Mac = No luck


I have a metal gleam series 11 CAUUB-CT0G LX211201 and tried using it and no luck.

Hi, I recently solved this for my entire company about 1.5 year ago for the M1 macs. You will need to download a software called Displaylink for your mac, allow screen recording and then connect your dock. This software is what will virtual your display and provide you with additional/ external displays. Give it a try!


Only issue I have been seeing with the M2 macs and the D6000 docks are that they seem to work seamlessly with the D6000S docks than just the D6000- Im not sure why...

This worked perfectly for my MBA M2 2022. The only think you didn't mention, was a reboot is necessary for this to work.


I now have an Acer VG240Y P for my second monitor linked via USB-C --> HDMI. External mouse Logitec MX Master 2S with Logitec Unifying Receiver and external speakers through the jack in the docs.


The displaylink software can be fetched from Synaptics website. https://www.synaptics.com/products/displaylink-graphics
