Lenovo Thinkpad T460 screens
Cient has a Lenovo T460 with a docking station. Need to connect three external screens.
Currently is laptop sceen as a primary and two other screens. Clients wants to have one more connected. Is it possible with this model?
1st screen is on VGA, 2nd on DisplayPort. Tried to connect 3rd on DVI but doesn't come up.
Can this model suppot three external screens on the top of the laptop screen?

Does that mean the laptop with dock itself cannot support three exernal monitors besides its own?

if above link is the exact model of your laptop it only support Mini DisplayPort™ and VGA port plus laptop display.
also that Converter works with DisplayPort not Mini DisplayPort.

Tried to connect 3rd on DVI but doesn't come up.it sounds like this port on your docking station is not working properly.
