Is it possible to connect a displayport/minidisplay port cable to a thunderbolt HUB?

[rev.b]

... or it works only with a apple thunderbolt monitor?

Thanks.

Since MDP and TB are compatible, you can connect a TB hub to your Mac and an MDP display to the TB hub.

To learn more about Thunderbolt (TB) and its compatibility with Mini DisplayPort (MDP):

​

And because Thunderbolt is based on DisplayPort technology, the video standard for high-resolution displays, any Mini DisplayPort display plugs right into the Thunderbolt port. To connect a DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, or VGA display, just use an existing adapter.

So, I could use a setup like this, and connect a Dell U2711 to the Lacie eSata hub? That would be great.
