13" Late 2013 Retina. Daisy chain displays?

I haven't been able to find anything on this topic, I appologize if this is a repeat question!


Dell U2414H displays support DP1.2 for daisy chaining, and the late 2013 Retina books have Thunderbolt 2 which supports DP1.2 as well, to the best of my knowledge. I've heard of plenty of 2012 MBAirs not being able to run multiple displays off of 1 Thunderbolt port, but is it possible with the Thunderbolt 2 machines? The reason I'm hoping to do this is so I can keep my GB ethernet adapter, yes I actually have speeds which make the USB adapter not an option (600+ Up, 600+ Down).


Display input / output for MDP and DP1.2a:

1 Mini DisplayPort

1 DisplayPort (version 1.2a)

1 DisplayPort out (MST)

MBP Retina --> Display 1 (in): Display 1 (out) --> Display 2 (in)


I'm alright if I have to close the lid to acheive this, just don't feel like ordering only to find out I have to mess with connecting the 2nd via HDMI.


Can I connect these two 1080P displays via 1 Thunderbolt 2 port on the MBP Retina, running 10.9.2?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
