Connecting Multiple Monitors Monitors can be connected to each other, both communication and video connections, in multiple monitor installations. Chaining the video connections together creates a video wall where a single image can be tiled across all displays. When connecting multiple monitors to install a video wall, communication and video cable connections are necessary and their configuration must be carefully considered.
