How to use

Connect the docking station to a host device using the integrated or supplied USB-C cable that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1. For network access, plug an Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port; the device will negotiate up to 1000 Mbit/s with a compatible network. Insert MicroSD or SD cards into the appropriate card slots to access files; the host operating system will detect them as removable storage. Attach an HDMI cable from the docking station to an external monitor to enable video output, observing that maximum resolution depends on the host GPU and HDMI cable specification. Connect USB Type-A peripherals to the available ports for input devices, storage, or other accessories.

Recommendations

Use high-quality cables rated for the required resolution and data rates (USB 3.0/3.2 and HDMI certified cables) and ensure your host device supports Display over USB-C and the indicated maximum resolution. For stable network performance, use a gigabit-capable switch or router and a CAT5e or higher Ethernet cable. Eject memory cards and USB storage safely through the operating system before removal to prevent data loss.
