Macbook Pro 13 inch, M1, 2020 connect to multiple displays

From what I understand my macbook can only connect to one display. I heard that if I purchases a docking station that I can connect my mac to multiple displays. I purchased the Belkin Thunderbolt 3 Dock Mini and 2 Acer - 27" IPS LED FHD FreeSync Monitors. I plugged everything in but only one monitor works. Does anyone know if it is possible to connect 2 monitors with this macbook pro? And if so, what docking station do I need and what monitors?


Thank you!

The M1 Chip Mac only supports one external display. If you want to connect more than one external display (and have the external displays work properly) you need either a M1 Pro or M1 Max chip computer.
