Dual 4K HDMI with DisplayLink
Extend your workspace across two external monitors—even from USB-C ports that typically don’t support video.
- 2x HDMI 2.0 ports
- Supports dual 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) at 60Hz
- Uses DisplayLink technology to enable dual extended displays without requiring special video capabilities from the laptop
Driver notes:
- Windows 10/11+: DisplayLink driver downloads automatically via Windows Update (or manually from Plugable’s website).
- macOS 11+: Requires installation of DisplayLink Manager for full functionality.
- DisplayLink installation requires administrative permissions—contact your IT support if using a managed work or school device.
- No support for HDCP-protected content (e.g., Netflix).
USB-C Pass-Through Charging up to 82W
The USBC-6950PDZ does not include its own power supply. Instead, it uses the USB-C power adapter that came with your laptop.
- Accepts USB-C power adapters from 45W to 100W
- Supports up to 100W input, reserving up to 18W for the dock
- Provides up to 82W pass-through charging to the host laptop
Connect your laptop’s USB-C power adapter to the marked port on the dock, then connect the dock to your laptop. Charging through the dock may be slightly slower than connecting the power adapter directly to the computer.
Connectivity and Expansion
Expand your laptop into a full-featured workstation:
- Dual 4K HDMI displays
- Gigabit Ethernet for wired networking
- High-speed USB ports for data and peripheral charging
- SD card slot for convenient file transfers
Ideal for web and productivity applications like Google Docs and Microsoft Office. Not intended for gaming, graphics-intensive, or design workloads.
Travel-Ready Design
Despite its slim, minimalist footprint, this dual-monitor docking station offers a complete desktop experience:
- Compact and portable for commuting or travel
- Uses your existing laptop USB-C power adapter—no extra power brick to carry
- Sturdy design for on-the-go use
