To perform a monitor Daisy-Chain, the Mac must have a Thunderbolt 3 port, and the first monitor (connected directly to the Mac) must also support Thunderbolt 3 (example: Dell UP2720Q monitor).

Typically, the Mac can support up to two monitors using a Daisy-Chain setup (one monitor directly connected to the Mac and another monitor connected to the first monitor).
