Do I need two cables to operate my portable monitor?

Most AURA DISPLAYS monitors are designed for ultimate convenience and require only a single USB-C cable to operate — both for power and video signal. However, depending on the model and your laptop’s power output, some setups may require a second cable to ensure proper performance, especially for models with extra-bright displays or those that do not require any driver/software installation.
