FAQs

What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate supported by the HDMI port?

The HDMI 2.0 port supports up to 4K resolution at 60Hz or 1080p resolution at 120Hz.

Can I use this dock if my device's USB-C port doesn't support video output?

No, for display output functionality, your device's USB-C port must support DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) in addition to charging and data transfer.

How many USB-A devices can I connect at once?

You can connect up to two USB-A devices simultaneously. Note that the USB-A ports offer basic peripheral connectivity and 5W charging.

Does the dock require its own power source?

Yes, the dock requires its power adapter to be plugged into a wall outlet to provide power for charging and to operate the connected peripherals and display output.

Is the USB-C cable included long enough for comfortable use?

The dock includes a 1.5-meter (5 ft) USB-C cable, which is designed to be durable and provide sufficient length for most common usage scenarios.

Can I use this dock with my smartphone?

Yes, if your smartphone's USB Type-C port supports Power Delivery for charging, data transfer, and video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode), you can use this dock with it.

What does GaN technology mean for this charger dock?

GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology allows for more efficient power conversion, leading to less heat generation and a more compact, portable design compared to traditional silicon-based chargers.

Troubleshooting

No display output on external monitor

Ensure the HDMI cable is securely connected to both the dock and the monitor. Verify that your device's USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode. Try a different HDMI cable or monitor. Confirm the correct input source is selected on the monitor.

Device not charging or charging slowly

Confirm that the dock is connected to a wall outlet and that the power adapter is functioning. Check that your device's USB-C port supports USB Power Delivery (PD). Ensure the USB-C cable is fully inserted into both the device and the dock. For fastest charging, use the included 100W-rated USB-C cable.

USB peripherals not recognized

Try connecting the peripherals directly to your device first to rule out issues with the peripherals themselves. Ensure the USB-A ports on the dock are not overloaded. Disconnect and reconnect the peripherals and the dock.

Dock or connected device gets unusually hot

While GaN technology is efficient, some warmth is normal during high-power operations. Ensure the dock has adequate ventilation and is not covered. If extreme heat is observed, disconnect the device and allow it to cool down. Verify that the connected device and charger are not exceeding the dock's 100W limit.
