Surface Connections

Is it possible to connect a Surface Pro to an HDMI connection and mirror the screen? plus could you connect a keyboard and mouse to it?

Thanks for any help!

    The Surface Pro 8 has two Thunderbolt ports, you can use for display output where you can mirror or extend your display. A USB-C to HDMI adapter such as the Microsoft Surface USB-C Travel hub is what is needed to make the connection work. 

     

    For the Surface Pro 8 or older, you can use the Microsoft Surface Dock 2 for display output, although there is no HDMI port on the Surface Doc 2. The Surface Dock 2 uses USB-C for video output, so a USB-C to HDMI adapter is needed.
