Features

Portable Docking Station Turns Your Device’s USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 Port into a Workstation

This USB-C dock with PD Charging expands the potential of your tablet, laptop, Chromebook, MacBook,
smartphone or PC’s USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port. It’s ideal for transmitting 4K video and digital audio to a
large display, adding a thumb drive and other USB peripherals, powering and charging a PD Charging­compliant mobile device, connecting to a Gigabit Ethernet network and a lot more—all at the same time.

Supports USB-C DisplayPort Alternate Mode for Converting Audio/Video Signals

By connecting the built-in USB-C cable to a source device that supports USB DisplayPort Alt Mode, you
can output 4K video and digital audio to an HDMI monitor, television or projector without installing special
software drivers.

Transmits Crystal-Clear 4K Video and Digital Audio with True 4:4:4 Color

The U442-DOCK5-GY supports Ultra HD video resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 (4K x 2K) at 30 Hz with
multi-channel sound and 4:4:4 chroma subsampling for top-level PC gaming or using your HDTV as a PC
monitor. Connect the HDMI port to your display using an HDMI cable (such as Tripp Lite’s P568-Series,
sold separately). A DVI display may also be connected using an HDMI to DVI adapter (Tripp Lite’s P566­Series, sold separately).

Connects Keyboards, Thumb Drives and Other USB Peripherals

Three USB-A hub ports accept USB peripherals, such as flash drives, mice, keyboards and printers, and
provide 5V 2A (10W) of charging power when connected to a PD 3.0-compliant charger. They support fast
USB 3.0 data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps (10 times faster than USB 2.0) and are backward compatible
with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. One BC 1.2-compliant port provides up to 5V 1.5A (7.5W) of fast­charging power to mobile devices.

PD Charging Port Charges the Connected Chromebook, MacBook Pro or Other Device

The USB-C 100W Power Delivery (PD) port provides power and charging to the connected PD Charging­compliant device (such as a MacBook Pro, Chromebook or Android smartphone). Connect the device’s
AC wall charger to the USB-C PD port, which supports power input up to 20V 5A (100W). That’s sufficient
wattage to fast-charge, sync and power most high-capacity devices, including the MacBook Pro. This port

System Requirements

●

Source device with USB-C or

can also be used for transferring data. PD 3.0 Fast Role Swap technology ensures all data and power
connections remain stable if the wall charger becomes accidentally dislodged.

Accesses a Wired Gigabit Ethernet Network

The RJ45 port offers access to a Gigabit Ethernet network when Wi-Fi is unavailable or when a wired
connection offers faster speeds. Connect using a UTP cable (Tripp Lite N201-Series Cat6 cables sold
separately), and enjoy true 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds for fast data transfers.

Allows External Memory Access

The memory card slots support Micro SD and SD/MMC cards for transferring data to and from your
connected computer, laptop or tablet. Both slots may be used at the same time.

Built-In USB-C Cable Attaches in Either Direction

Unlike traditional USB cables that connect in only one direction, the reversible USB-C male connector
plugs into a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port in either direction for a fumble-free connection every time.

Ready to Use Right from the Package, So You Can Plug and Play Immediately

The plug-and-play USB-C dock is specifically designed for use with the MacBook Pro, Google
Chromebook Pixel and other laptops, tablets and devices equipped with a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port. It
requires no software or drivers. It’s about the size of a smartphone, making it easy to pack into a pocket,
backpack or laptop bag for multiport convenience wherever you go.
