Correct. Your iPad9 has a Lightning port - and therefore does not support DisplayPort (or more precisely, DP Alternate Mode). The Lightning port does, however, support connection to an monitor’s HDMI Interface using an appropriate Lightning to HDMI adapter.


For iPad, DP Alternate Mode is currently only supported by the fifth generation iPad Pro models.
