UNIVERSAL DOCK

With UP TO 94W LAPTOP CHARGING

Connect

As more and more of us are working in multi-workflow environments with various Type-C laptops and tablets, we need a dock that will adapt to our specific needs.

CalDigit has solved this challenge and developed the USB-C HDMI Dock, a device that will adapt to any USB-C (Type-C) laptop it connects to. When connected to a Thunderbolt 3 laptop it offers full 40Gb/s performance, and when connected to a USB-C laptop it provides 10Gb/s performance in order to supply exactly what your laptop requires.³

Charge

Not only is the USB-C HDMI Dock versatile, it also offers up to 94W power delivery, for laptops that require more power.

As many PC manufacturers make it difficult to know what ports their laptops have, the USB-C HDMI Dock takes the guesswork out of choosing the right docking solution.

FAST LAPTOP CHARGING

UP TO 94W

The USB-C HDMI Dock offers up to 94W laptop charging. This makes it an ideal solution for larger laptops such as the 16" MacBook Pro.

Whether you're connected to a Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, or USB-C laptop, the USB-C HDMI Dock will charge your laptop up to 94W.⁴

CONNECTIVITY BUILT-IN

The USB-C HDMI Dock has two built-in HDMI 2.0b connectors for directly connecting dual 4K 60Hz monitors in either "Extended" or "Mirrored" configurations to your Thunderbolt 3 laptop without the need for any USB-C video adapters. Apple M1 laptops can connect to a single external monitor, allowing you to expand your laptop's built-in screen to one external "Extended" monitor.⁵

USB-C users can connect up to a single 4K 30Hz monitor, or up to dual 2K 30Hz monitors depending on the configuration, bandwidth, and DisplayPort version of their computer.

Docking Station Utility

CalDigit offers a free software utility that makes it incredibly easy to disconnect all the external drives connected to the USB-C HDMI Dock with a single click.*

*Currently this docking utility is only available for macOS.

Stand Alone Charging

All USB-A ports on the USB-C HDMI Dock offer Stand Alone Charging functionality that allows the dock to charge USB devices, such as iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch up to 7.5W without the laptop connected.

SuperDrive

Many docks or hubs on the market are not capable of powering the Apple SuperDrive. This is because the SuperDrive requires a higher amount of power from the USB port, and in fact it's recommended to connect it directly to the laptop's USB port. CalDigit saw this as a challenge and developed a driver for the SuperDrive to work with the USB-C HDMI Dock.*

² USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 protocols are now called USB 3.2.

³ Full dock functionality depends on the host computer's capabilities. Please contact your host device manufacturer to confirm external display, host charging, and USB device support.

⁴ Windows PC users must check if their Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C port is capable of laptop charging, as not all PC manufacturers have added this functionality to their ports, limiting them to data or display only.

⁵ Apple Silicon laptops limit display output to a single stream & therefore do not support dual external displays.

⁶ Tablet users will have some reduced functionality. Check with your tablet manufacturer for capabilities.
