Usage Recommendations
For presentations and video playback, connect the HDMI port to an external display and set the laptop to extend or mirror the screen. When using the 4K output, verify the laptop’s USB-C port supports video as not all USB-C sockets do. For charging and data at the same time, plug a suitable 100W power adapter into the USB-C PD port and then connect storage devices to the USB 3.0 port for quicker transfers. 📺
When using multiple devices concurrently, distribute high-draw peripherals across the ports and rely on the host power for heavy loads. The hub works with a wide range of USB-C and Thunderbolt 3/4 devices including recent MacBook Air and Pro models from 2016 to 2025, Chromebooks, tablets and some smartphones. Consider that very power-hungry external drives may need their own power source for the best reliability. 🔌.
