Description

A monitor up to 144 Hz at 2K and 240 Hz at Full HD

HDMI shows 4K at 60 Hz, Quad HD up to 144 Hz and Full HD up to 240 Hz, with HDR and HDCP 2.2 support. For the maximum values the USB-C port must support DP Alt Mode version 1.4 or newer, or Thunderbolt 3. The manufacturer notes that on Apple devices running macOS the refresh rate is usually limited to 60 Hz.

Charging and network over one cable

A separate USB-C socket is for charging only: a USB PD 3.0 charger plugged into it supplies the laptop with up to 100 W and keeps the second USB-C port on the computer free. The Gigabit RJ-45 port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps. The USB ports handle several external drives and charge a phone at up to 1.5 A.

Who this USB hub is for

Owners of a modern laptop without USB-A sockets or a video output who also care how an accessory looks on the desk. Supported systems are Windows 10 and 11, macOS, iPadOS, iOS, Linux, ChromeOS and Android, so the hub also works with a tablet or phone.
