StarTech.com USB-C Quad Monitor Docking Station for MacBook Pro/Air M1 M2 M3 M4 & Windows, Universal 4K 60Hz HDMI DP Dock, Thunderbolt Compatible, 100W Laptop Charging

I searched high and low to find this unit. I have an array of four (now six) external monitors I wanted to hook up to one laptop, but short of buying two port replicators, I couldn’t find one device I could do that with , and also be 4K. Then I found this device. It was very easy to set up. Windows does the work of managing the displays… all I had to do was get the screen order right and maximize the resolutions. When I first set up, I didn’t realize two of my cables were not rated for 4K, and that was reflected with Windows not allowing me to use the same resolution as the other monitors that were using the proper cables. The unit gives you the option of using DisplayPort or HDMI. It connects to your PC using a USB-C double male rated for very high throughput; unfortunately, the cable is way too short, so you might want to buy a six foot or longer cable. You also have the blue USB ports on the back and a high speed USB-3 port and a USB-C port on the front… and an audio port. I wish there were more USB ports, but that’s what my other port replicator is for. I also wish the unit came with long rubber coned feet so you could stack these and have adequate ventilation. One problem I had was when I opened a 150 MB Excel spreadsheet, that overloaded my GPU which shut down two of my screens via this unit, then two more. It took a few minutes for a reboot attempt would bring up the monitors. But that is probably more of an issue with my laptop than with this unit.

Excellent product. Powerful, works perfectly. Good construction

Dock performed as expected. I was able to connect 3 monitors over HDMI and separately able to do 2 display port. The flexibility and options are great. I did have power constraints with a USB monitor. Thankfully, the front USB has more wattage to support it. There was also an issue where the monitors would freeze, disconnect and then reconnect. I contacted support and it seems to have been fixed after we installed a driver update. It's been a day and so far so good!

So far it works very well. Feels very solid and does what is advertised. I have 4 external monitors connected to it and they are running without issue. It is not giving off any heat and makes no noise that I can tell. It was on the pricier side but so far it seems to be worth it.

Picked up this unit to run 4 monitors for my home office and have been using this for a little over a week. The setup was extremely easy and it will power up 4 different displays. The problem is the unit will power off every 30 to 45 minutes and will reset your displays. I cannot find a technical support number or one for the seller. I had high hopes for this unit but plan on sending it back and trying another one. I waste more time during my day dealing with the shutdown of the unit and resetting my displays.

### Review for StarTech Quad Monitor Docking Station The StarTech quad monitor docking station has been a game-changer for my productivity. With the ability to connect four external monitors plus my laptop screen, I now have a total of five independent screens, allowing me to manage multiple tasks and applications seamlessly. The setup process did take some time and required a bit of experimentation, but I found the best configuration was using a combination of HDMI and DPI cables. Despite my graphics card only supporting three monitors, this docking station has enabled me to run all five screens without a hitch. I am using four ThinkVision T22i-10 monitors, and the clarity and performance have been outstanding. The additional screen real estate has drastically improved my workflow, from coding and debugging to project management and content creation. The ability to have multiple documents, applications, and windows open simultaneously has been invaluable. Overall, the StarTech quad monitor docking station is a robust and reliable solution for anyone looking to maximize their screen space and enhance their productivity. Highly recommended!

This does exactly what it says. It will extend or duplicate you laptop upto 4 additional screens. Including the laptop screen, you can have uoto 5 seperate screens to work with independently. Setup was a bit cumbersome as the directions were lacking and it did require a driver to be downloaded and installed, but once that was done it was smooth sailing. The only thing I could ask for would be an additional usb port or two.

Constantly turns monitors off. It is good when it works.
