StarTech.com USB-C Dock for Mini Laptops - Dual 4K HDMI Displays

The USB-C docking station is compatible with a wide range of brands, including HP, Dell, Lenovo, Surface Book/Laptop 3/Pro 7, and Chromebooks, supporting both Windows and Chrome OS. However, MacBook compatibility is limited to single monitor output. The device offers two operation modes: a physical switch allows users to toggle between higher resolution dual 4K 30Hz monitor output with USB 2.0 transfer speeds, or dual HDMI 1080p with faster USB 3.0 port speeds for large data files.

The installation process is straightforward, as the package includes a 3.3ft (1m) USB Type-C host cable, allowing for extended port reach. This makes the dock ideal for use in a variety of settings, such as working from home, the office, the boardroom, or on-the-go. The setup is further simplified by the automatic driver installation.

The mini dock can be powered by the laptop or an external adapter. It supports Power Delivery 3.0 passthrough, enabling users to charge their laptop via the USB-C power adapter (15W for the dock, with the remaining power for charging the laptop).

In addition to the core functionality, the device also comes with a set of connectivity tools. The included application improves performance and security, featuring utilities such as MAC Address Changer, USB Event Monitoring, and Windows Layout & Wi-Fi Auto Switch.

The USB-C dual display multiport adapter offers a compact and portable solution, providing dual 4K 30Hz or single 4K 60Hz HDMI video output, a 2-port USB-A hub (USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 5Gbps), Gigabit Ethernet, and 100W Power Delivery passthrough. This versatile connectivity ensures that users can seamlessly expand their setup, whether they're working from home, the office, or on the move.

It's worth noting that a newer version of the product, the 120B-USBC-MULTIPORT, is also available. This alternative model offers similar features and functionality, providing users with additional options to choose from based on their specific needs and preferences.

Overall, the USB-C docking station delivers a compelling combination of performance, flexibility, and convenience, making it a valuable tool for those who require a versatile and reliable connectivity solution in their work or personal computing environments.
