How to use

Connect the dock to a laptop using the USB Type-C cable or port on the host computer. Plug external devices—such as a monitor into the HDMI port, USB peripherals into the USB-A ports, and SD or MicroSD cards into the card slots—then allow the host operating system to detect and install any necessary drivers. If the connected laptop supports USB Power Delivery, the dock can supply up to 100 W to charge the device while other peripherals are in use. Ensure the laptop’s USB-C port supports data and power delivery functions for full feature compatibility.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, connect high-bandwidth devices (external SSDs, high-resolution displays) directly after confirming the laptop’s USB-C capabilities. Use quality HDMI cables for stable video output and insert memory cards fully to secure correct read/write operation. When using power-hungry laptops or multiple peripherals, verify power delivery negotiation and consider the host’s power requirements to avoid underpowering.
