If the display has a Thunderbolt 3 port, plug the adapter into the display and use a Thunderbolt 2 cable from the adapter to the computer.


If the display has only a permanently attached Thunderbolt 3 cable, you will need a Thunderbolt dock with two Thunderbolt 3 ports. Plug the display into one port and the adapter into the other. Connect the adapter to the computer with a Thunderbolt 2 cable.
