dual DisplayPort displays with Lenovo ThinkPad T540p Type 20BF

The Lenovo ThinkPad T540p Type 20BF has a single Mini DisplayPort output.  However, you can use an adapter to split this to drive dual displays.

Use the Lenovo 4X90L13971 Mini-DisplayPort to [Female] DisplayPort Adapter plus the Lenovo 0B47092 DisplayPort to Dual DisplayPort Adapter, and then use two DisplayPort cables.

This will drive dual displays at 1920x1080 at 60Hz (actual resolution).  Note that you may have to close the lid of the laptop before the second display becomes active.
