Description
This item is brand-new, factory sealed.
Plugable's USB-C Mini Dock helps overcome the limited amount of USB-C ports on modern systems in order to provide a travel friendly docking solution for the functions that are most important to your workflow. Equipped with an HDMI 1.4 port, our Mini Dock can support an external monitor, TV or projector up to 38402160 at a 30Hz refresh rate while supporting 1080p and lower resolutions at a 60Hz refresh rate.
The USB 3.0 port offers 5Gbps data transfer speeds and enables you to connect traditional USB peripherals to the new USB-C ports that are equipped on modern laptops, tablets and desktops.
Our Mini Dock is able to provide USB-C pass-through charging over the USB-C Power Delivery specification at 5-20v at 3A.
Please note: when connecting or disconnecting a USB-C charger, the connection may momentarily reset as the hub changes its power source. This is expected behavior outlined in the USB-IF Power Delivery R2 V1.0 specification. Connected USB devices may momentarily disconnect until the transition is completed and they could automatically reconnect.
There are no software drivers required for our mini dock to work; just plug-and-play!
Compatibility
The Plugable USB-C Mini Dock is compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux systems that have a USB-C 3.1 Gen 1/ Gen 2 port that supports USB-C DisplayPort Alternate Mode and USB-C Power Delivery or Thunderbolt 3 ports. Popular supported systems include the 2016 / 2017 MacBook Pro 13" / 15" (with and without Touchbar), HP Spectre x360 13" (13-ac013dx), Lenovo Yoga 720 (13IKB), Dell XPS 13 and XPS 15 systems, and Microsoft Surface Book 2.
Please note: a USB-C power supply is not included with our USBC-MD101 Mini Dock. If the host system does not come with a USB-C power adapter for charging, one that is compatible with the system would need to be purchased separately in order to use with our adapter for USB-C Power Delivery charging.
Our mini dock is not compatible with USB Type-A systems using a USB Type-A to USB Type-C passive adapter as these do not support USB-C DisplayPort alternate mode or USB-C power delivery. Also, it is not compatible with most smartphone devices equipped with a USB-C port.
Power Supply note: if the host system's power supply outputs a wattage greater than 60 watts (like Apple's 87 watt power supply or Dell's 130 watt power supply), the USB-C power delivery will negotiate, but will charge at 60 watts. This will result with the system's battery charging at slower rates when used with our mini dock.
