Triple Display Connectivity
This docking station supports dual HDMI and a single DisplayPort 1.4. You can run a triple monitor setup at 8K resolution or 120 Hz refresh rate. This is ideal for financial analysts, designers, or developers who need extensive screen real estate. However, the maximum resolution and refresh rate per port depend on your laptop’s GPU and cable quality.
High-Speed Data and Peripheral Hub
The unit includes two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports and three USB Type-A ports (two Gen 1, one USB 2.0). This allows for rapid file transfers from external drives while connecting legacy peripherals like keyboards and mice. The dedicated USB 2.0 port is optimised for low-bandwidth devices, preventing interference with high-speed data tasks.
