Jerimiah F : Will this allow a M1 MacMini to output more than 2 displays?BRENDAN H : technically no, there are only two outputs on this device. One SDI and One HDMI. You could use an sdi splitter or a handful of other devices to add one or two more sdi outputs but it can get pricy and complicated. If you need just three output signals id suggest upgrading to the Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini. not as portable (still small but not bus powered) has two sdi outs and 1 HDMI but still outputs an hd signal.
