Product Features
Technical Overview
This docking station leverages DisplayLink technology to enable triple 4K display support on laptops that natively limit external monitor connectivity. The video subsystem comprises two DisplayPort 1.2 and one HDMI 2.0 output, each capable of driving a 4K display at 60Hz. The USB 3.0 Type-C host interface operates at 5Gbps, carrying display, data, and power signals simultaneously.
Power delivery is managed through a 100W universal power adapter that charges compatible laptops while powering all connected peripherals. The dock's six USB 3.0 ports include four Type-A and two Type-C connectors, all operating at 5Gbps speeds. Network connectivity is provided through a dedicated Gigabit Ethernet port with hardware-based MAC address pass-through capability.
