AXAGON HMC-U4, USB4 40Gbps Dock, HDMI & DP, 8k/30+4k/144Hz, 3x USB-A, 2x USB-C, RJ-45, SD/mSD, audio
The AXAGON HMC-U4 DUAL 4K DISPLAY dock will turn your laptop, tablet or phone into a multimedia centre. Thanks to the latest USB4 technology, this docking station offers a total data throughput of up to 40Gbps. This means you can take full advantage of even the most demanding computer accessories and enjoy a top-class experience. Whether you're watching video in 8K resolution or working with two 4K monitors simultaneously, this technology will provide you with the performance you need. USB4 offers the advantage of compatibility with Thunderbolt technology while also supporting backwards compatibility with previous generations of USB.
12-in-1 Multimedia Station
Connect your laptop to the 12-in-1 docking station via the included 80cm long cable. You'll instantly have a fast SD (UHS-II) and microSD card reader, and connectors for two external monitors, five USB devices, headphones or a headset, and Power Delivery. However, it's essential that your device's USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode) and Power Delivery.
Why a USB4 hub?
The HDMI and DisplayPort outputs allow you to connect an external monitor, TV or projector with a resolution of up to 8K/30Hz Ultra HD, 4K/144Hz Ultra HD or 2K/240Hz Quad HD, with support for multi-channel audio transmission. Thanks to HDR support, you can enjoy a richer colour spectrum and more pronounced contrasts for an even better visual experience.
Both HDMI and DisplayPort
By connecting two monitors simultaneously, you get up to 4K/144Hz on the DP port output and 4K/60Hz on the HDMI output. All supported resolutions and features are directly dependent on the support of the connected monitor and laptop.
Plenty of ports for everything
The docking station has a total of three 10Gbps outputs, USB-C (2×) and USB-A (1×), plus two 5Gbps USB-A outputs. This set of five USB ports allows you to connect external drives, flash drives, a mouse, a printer and other USB accessories. The USB ports also charge mobile phones and tablets with up to 7.5W of power.
Memory card reader
The memory card reader supports reading and writing of all versions of SD (UHS-II) and microSD (UHS-I) cards with a capacity of up to 2TB. UHS-II cards reach speeds of up to 156MB/s (full-duplex) or 312MB/s (half-duplex), and support for older UHS-I cards (max speed 104MB/s) is a given. The card reader allows for simultaneous work with cards in both slots and direct copying between them.
High-quality sound
You can use the 3.5mm audio output to connect stereo headphones, a headset or active speakers. It is equipped with a high-quality DAC converter that supports sampling up to 384kHz at 24 bits. This lets you enjoy top-quality sound, which is ideal for lossless formats like FLAC, WMA, WAV, APE, AAC or ALAC.
Network Connection
The Gigabit network card extends your computer with a fast and stable network connection, adds a missing RJ-45 Ethernet network connector, or adds another network card.
Power Delivery 100W
The USB-C input (PD) is designed for a Power Delivery charger. This means that both the laptop and the dock are powered directly from the PD charger using Power Delivery 3.0 technology with up to 100W of power. With additional power via the USB-C input (DC 5V), you can boost the power supply when operating without a PD charger connected and connect devices with higher power consumption to the multiport hub, for example, multiple external drives.
Thoughtful in every way
The button on the top of the dock is used to turn the docking station on and off. Thanks to its thoughtful design with four rubber feet, the station stays firmly in place. The elegant ribbed surface on the top part doesn't leave fingerprints. The vents on the bottom ensure sufficient air circulation, so the dock does not overheat even under higher loads.
