How many QHD displays can I connect to one side of the 13" MBP 4 TB 2016? I own a CTO 13" 2016 MBP w/ 4 ThunderBolt ports and I am in the market for 2 QHD (1440p) external displays.

While the displays themselves are not USB-C / Thunderbolt compatible I was thinking of also buying a "Satechi Type-C to Dual HDMI Adapter" which would also charge my Mac and theoretically send video to the 2 external displays.

But now I am wondering if the one port strategy provides enough bandwidth to power the 2 displays at full resolution.

If it matters I don't intend on using the internal display at all with this setup.
Check out Apples help as indicated below, but unofficially it looks like the Answer is two total external displays can be attached regardless of resolution or which side they are attached. Apple does not really mention QHD but its close enough to 4K, that you probably can't double it with the existing hardware.

Check your requirements

Check the ports on your Mac to find out whether you need an adapter.

Check how many displays your Mac supports: Choose Apple menu  &gt; About This Mac, click Support, then click Specifications. On the webpage that appears, the number of displays your Mac supports appears under Video Support.
