Q: QuestionCan any of the USB-C ports be used for video input instead of the HDMI port?

Asked 1 month ago by Peegee.

• A:Answer Yes, the Acer PM161Q Abmiuuzx portable monitor supports video input via its USB-C ports, which can be used instead of the Mini HDMI port. Both USB-C ports on the monitor support display signals, but the connected source device (laptop, phone) must support DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) via its own USB-C port.

Asked 4 months ago by SunNP1.

• A:Answer The Acer PM161Q is VESA compatible with a 75x75mm pattern, allowing it to be mounted, but it's important to use a specific VESA adapter or bracket designed for portable monitors because its slim design lacks built-in mounting holes for standard arms.
