TERMINOLOGY
Interface / port / connector / input / slot – a place where two devices
physically interconnect.
Controller – a semi-conductor component (so-called chipset) in a
laptop, tablet, PC etc. ensuring the operation of a port.
USB-C – a new standard and a symmetrical connector. Enables faster
charging, provides power supply, is dual-role (can be either host or
device), supports alternate modes (DisplayPort, MHL, Thunderbolt).
Alternate modes (Alt modes) – special modes for the USB-C connector
that can be supported. Currently the most popular modes are DisplayPort
/ DockPort, MHL, Thunderbolt. A device with this capability on the port
and cable allows video transmission while also retaining other port
functionalities (for data transfer and charging via Power Delivery).
DisplayPort / DockPort Alt mode – this mode allows video transmission
via the USB-C port and cable.
USB-C Power Delivery / Data (USB-C PD) – optional property of the
USB-C connector. A port supporting this property is able to both charge
and be charged and supports 10 W to 100 W of load (range in profiles 1-5).
USB 3.1 / 3.0 / 2.0 – standard for USB interface / port for connecting
various USB devices. Using the type A USB interface allows connecting
various USB devices to a docking station or adapter. The type B USB port
is used for connecting the docking station or adapter to a laptop, tablet
or PC.
HDMI / DisplayPort – standard for digital graphics interface / port used
for connecting monitors and other display devices.
Audio – designation for sound input (microphone) or output devices
(headphones / speakers).
Important note:
To make full use of the potential of your docking station, it is important
that the laptop's GPU supports DisplayPort 1.4.
If the GPU in the laptop supports DisplayPort 1.2, the docking station
will function but will limit the maximum available resolution of external
monitors. See the SPECIFICATIONS section for more.
Note for macOS: macOS does not support MST technology (2 and
more monitors in extended mode). No docking station using USB-C
DisplayPort Alt Mode supports the connection of two or more monitors
in MacOS. Only docking stations with Thunderbolt 3 or DisplayLink
docking stations allow this.
