USB C Hub DisplayPort, 4K@60Hz (USBC DisplayPort Hub), 100Mbps Ethernet, 2X USB, 60W Host Charging in Gray - Thunderbolt 4 / Thunderbolt 3 Port Compatible for MacBook Pro

This compact hub works well. I needed it for the DisplayPort adapter mostly, which delivered full resolution output without issue. If you have an older DL-DVI display (ACD 30") like I do, you'll also need the (Apple DL-DVI -> Mini DisplayPort adapter) + (mDP -> DP adapter, I used one from Togonn).

I spent a lot of time trying to find the most cost effective and easy way to plug in my old Apple Monitor to my new Macbook and Chromebook. They both have USB-C, but the Pixelbook does not have ThunderBolt 3.0. I'm able to get full 2650x1600 resolution with no artifacts. Pros: Only USB-C to DP adapter that works with the 30" Apple Cinema display and a Pixelbook Has Power Delivery so I can charge and display with one cable. Has an ethernet port Inexpensive compared to a Thunderbolt 3 dock Cons: Cables come out from the adapter in all directions Short USB-C cable which causes a nest of wires hanging off your laptop (can be solved by purchasing a USB-C extension cable) USB ports are only 2.0, but my setup only needs 5v power out of those ports My setup is: Cable Matters USB C Multiport Adapter → Cable Matters DP (male) to Mini DP (female) cable → Official Apple Mini Display Port to DVI-Dual Link Adapter → Apple 30" Cinema Display.

I have a DELL S2716DG monitor (which is mostly for gaming on my windows pc) that works flawlessly with this adapter. I'm very impressed with the functionality and price. I have the 13" MBP power adapter running the pass-through, keyboard and mouse in both USB ports, and then obviously display port from adapter to monitor. No lag, no hangups, no drivers required, just plug and play. The product is very lightweight, which I suppose is a plus and a minus. It doesn't feel super substantial or durable, so time will tell how it holds up months and years from now. For now, though, it works perfectly. Highly recommended. ** UPDATE: Unfortunately the PD failed after a couple of weeks. If it simply failed to charge it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, but it actually drained my mbp battery twice overnight. From 100% battery, plugged in and sleeping, to a complete drain. Not even sure how it managed to do that. But it’s pretty upsetting, since it’s bad for the battery’s health to drain it completely like that. Not happy. Stay away.

This USB-C hub is fantastic! I did a lot of research before purchasing and this seemed like it was easily the best value on the market. Most hubs required Thunderbolt for DisplayPort 1.2/MST support, but this one can do it over USB-C. That means I can drive two 24” (1920x1200) displays from the hub simply by daisy-chaining the displays via DisplayPort cable. The USB PD supplies 60W which is enough to power my Dell laptop (charges a bit slower than the OEM 65W power supply). Also provides 2x USB 2.0 ports and a 100Mbps Ethernet port. I probably won’t ever use the Ethernet port, but the USB 2.0 ports work well. It would be nice to have 3.0 or 3.1 ports, but for the price you can’t complain. The next cheapest product I found which provides USB 3.0/3.1 is the full size Monoprice USB-C dock @ $99. For now, I will just use the ports directly on the laptop for my devices that support it. I can’t praise this hub enough. It provides the convenience and features you actually need at a price point far below the docks that run from $100-300.

I have this adaptor connected to a Iomega KVM switch, enabling me to switch between my gaming PC and my 4k monitor. I bought a cheap adaptor that had more bells and whistles, which failed and is being returned. This one is the same price. While I don't get as many ports and not as clean of a layout, this one actually works. Here is how it could be better: 1. If the ports could all be on one side, or two sides, it would be much cleaner. Having plugs sticking out of all sides is not ideal...but also not a deal breaker. 2. I have two USB-C enabled laptops, a MacBook and a Dell. I will unplug this adapter from one and plug it into the other. When I do this, the wired network port fails to grab an IP from DHCP. Unplugging the USB-C passthrough power from the adaptor to power cycle it ends up fixing it. I gave up on that and just run wireless. 3. This one took me a while to figure out. When switching from my PC to a laptop using my KVM, I have to make sure the KVM is switched to this adapter before plugging the USB-C port into a laptop. If not, the display won't work. Overall, none of this is a deal breaker for the price.

Only dongle in this price range or even close to it with 4k@60hz support. Pros: - Unique and smart implementation in regards to ports in this price range for a single cable USB-C dock. - High response rate on the DP port with 4k 60hz capability. I did a lot of browsing for a dock and this function is not found at this price (not even close). It may be a very good choice for gaming if you run a high refresh display from a gaming laptop with a Thunderbolt port like I do. Cons: - This behavior is very rare but drivers are sometimes are inconsistent; it has a built in ROM with a driver if needed but it only shows up sometimes and the display will behave erratically if you for example have another setup at work with a different dock like I do. - Power delivery is minimal, will only charge light powered laptops at 60W and this includes the USB 2.0 ports, don't expect to run anything but a mouse and keyboard (tried a laptop cooler as a test with usb pass-through but it wouldn't power the mouse connected to the cooler). - Biggest caveat for me is the network speed is only 100mb versus the more common gigabit which limits file sharing on my home network. - You need a separate charger for power delivery to your laptop, but that's normal for most USB C dongles. For reference, I use it with my Lenovo T480 and an MSI gaming laptop (no power delivery on the MSI).

This is the one you're looking for if you own a recent MacBook or MacBook Pro that you want to connect to an external monitor. It performs exactly as advertised, providing power delivery to my 2017 MacBook Pro (only 55 W, not 60... but close enough), 4k60 video from the DisplayPort connector, and 2 USB 2.0 ports that have proven to be pretty rock solid for my use. Ive been very happy with the unit as a single-port dock for connecting my Mac to my desk. The connection seems sturdy, my monitor works without frames dropping or any other problems, and several USB peripherals connected to a hub all operate fine. I tried many other USB-C devices to try to provide what this little box does and am very impressed with the functionality (it does exactly what it advertises, which is quite rare for USB-C devices right now) and the price. The most important thing to know is to connect the power cable to the adapter first, then to connect everything else. Now, everything just works when plugged in to just one cable on my MacBook Pro.

This was about the only adapter that could support 4k 60Hz video and cost less than $100. 100Mbit ethernet was a bit of a surprise only because i did not read the spec, so it's on me. USB2.0 works well, my LG 4k display works great... then at some point I started noticing things. Like, I leave the laptop plugged in in the evening and it's completely discharged in the morning. Then in the middle of the work my macbook becomes unbelievably slow. Now I know it's because the battery gets to ~8% and os x saves stuff and goes into low power mode. All while it's plugged in into this adapter! The battery indicator shows "power source: power adapter" but also "battery is not charging" and is actually discharging slowly. Then I have to unplug the adapter from everything, plug the power into it first, wait a little, then plug into the laptop, the battery indicator goes "power adapter but battery is not charging", wait longer, and if I am lucky it changes to "battery is charging". And if I am unlucky I repeat the whole process. And then it may be fine for a week or two. Mind that it's the small 13" macbook, all it needs is 60W that are in this adapter's spec. And I have no usb/ethernet plugged in, so nothing is stealing a few watts her and there. Obviously, USB-C Power Delivery needs some attention here.
